I had a wonderful experience during my stay. The service was excellent and all staff were very friendly and helpful. The lady receptionist who attended to me during check in was very polite and professional. Special thanks to Irfan for the great service, as well as Carolyn and the concierge team they were superb! Great job to the Front Office team. Keep up the amazing work!

Absolutely loving my stay at this stylish new hotel! The spacious room, modern design, and plush bedding made it feel like a true retreat in the city. No trace of construction smell — just clean, fresh comfort. Staffs are very attentive and helpful! it’s just a short walk to the famous Welcome Seafood & Filipino market. Will visit again!
