Guests consistently praise the spaciousness and cleanliness of the rooms, with many highlighting the fantastic rooftop pool and its accompanying restaurant as a prime relaxation spot. The excellent breakfast buffet, with a wide variety of fresh options, is also a frequently mentioned highlight. While the location is convenient for accessing nearby malls and Burgos Street, some guests have noted that the elevator service can be slow at times.
i found the staff very friendly and helpful. The check-in and check-out process was fast. i also liked the rooftop bar Firefly on the 32nd floor, especially at night, since it looked very lovely. there was also a swimming pool on the same floor that i enjoyed for a relaxing swim.
