Okay value in some areas, especially helpful staff
Pros:

The staff is stellar, and so is the breakfast buffet, both Western and Filipino foods. The view from skydeck is as good as it gets in Manila. The hotels diners are quality.

Cons:

Can confirm much of what other reviewers have pointed out: the aircon adjustments being futile - only on and off has a noticeable effect, the wifi is unreliable ( had to keep connecting to my mobile data), no gym or pool available. The windows of both the rooms and the breakfast diner are hard to see through -can't say whether that's a cleaning or material issue, maybe it's just a compliment to Manilas smoke fog problem. The television has a box connected to it for TV channels but the original smart remote is missing so had to connect my computer to watch Netflix.

Pros:

Staff is very friendly and helpful. Very accomodating. They even gave us a small token of gift for our wedding anniversary. So sweet about them. The location is near to all the places we want to see.

Cons:

a bit outdated. Im a bit disappointed about the toilet and tv channels but it is doable.

Struttura scarsa per il prezzo pagato
Pros:

Buona posizione, buon livello di pulizia

Cons:

Struttura datata, all'arrivo nei corridoi ti accoglie un forte odore di umidità. Personale cortese ma servizio disorganizzato.

Tolle Lage und schöne Atmosphäre
Pros:

Die Lage direkt in Intramuros ist perfekt. Von außen sowie im Eingangsbereich und an der Rezeption wirkt das Hotel sehr schick und edel. Die Zimmer sind allerdings recht klein und einfach eingerichtet und für unseren Geschmack etwas wenig komfortabel.

Dafür ist die Rooftop-Bar wirklich schön, stilvoll und ein echtes Highlight. Insgesamt ein angenehmer Aufenthalt mit einer tollen Lage.
