Excellent stay once again. Friendly staff, quick to process check ins. Clean place, smells good. The only thing is the AC being a little loud when turns in.

I reserved a room with one queen bed for one person for one night. I am very pleased with the room, although it is small - most of the space taken up by the bed. It is simple, but completely adequate, very clean and attractive. There is a compact bathroom with nice tile and a good shower for one person. Beside the bathroom a small built-in table with shelves above is perfect for a carry-on. A shallow but wide counter on the other side of the bed works well for a laptop and offers charging options. Above the end of the counter is a rod for hanging up a few clothes. The lighting, electrical outlets, air conditioner and wall-mounted tv all contribute to a room that functions very well. It's quiet, relaxing, simple - exactly what I wanted. The City Express shuttle is available only for short rides leaving from the hotel. It will not pick you up - say at the airport - and bring you to the hotel. A cab from the airport to the hotel cost me $500 pesos before a tip. The shuttle leaves from the hotel once an hour but needs to be arranged in advance. I would certainly stay here again.

The room served it's purpose; it was next to the hospital and had a bed to sleep in the night before. Not too many expectations.

The room had someone else’s hair all over the floor. The a/c was super loud and the bed was okay at best. The shuttle wasn’t available and that was the main reason I booked it to begin with.
