Best Budget Room Ever”

The Hotel is well situated around restaurants and fast food corners as well. Parking is not provided as only got public parking . The rooms are very clean and smells good upon arrival. Just that only makes the stay worth while. The staffs are friendly and the room is cozy just remember that this room does not provide u with the best view of the city as its main purpose is to provide a comfortable and cozy place to stay. Will definitely come here again during my next stay.

Neat & Compact”

If you are a solo traveler or a backpacker couple, this is a hotel for you. I love that it has elevator, reasonable price, perfect location slightly near to the waterfront as well as safety. You can't enter as you like, you feel safe here despite the sketchy area. Parking is difficult during the day, but at night it was easier to get a parking but then, not in front of the hotel, somewhere around the block. The bathroom was tad small for at least two adults to fit in, so you can only take turns. The toilet did not have its own bidet. The placing of everything from the shower to the toilet bowl was uncomfortable. The rest of the room and the hotel in whole were good. You will be satisfied. Would recommend if you are not that fussy.

Staying here for a night. Room and bathroom arent that big but bearable for me as i have 2 luggage. Those who have more or bigger luggage might want to consider this room. Facilities & staff are great. I like how secure the premise as we need to use the room card to enter the premise instead of anyone can go in/out easily. Location also strategic & near to the city centre.

AFFORDABLE & COMFY STAY”

Even though the hotel is blocked by another building for the sea view. But, it's fine because the hotel rate is cheap for a night (single room) and super near (3min walk) to Todak Waterfront Seafood next the sea, OMG. The seafood was super fresh and cheap too. Not to mention the crazy big size of Lobster, Seashells, and Octopus! Extra note: this hotel also near to Filipino Market & Night Food Market (5-8min walk).
