It’s a nice place hopefully they will add hair dryers. And for sure we will book again for our business trips in Laoag.
Pros:

It’s affordable and the location is near malls and the university I visited

Cons:

Only thing is that, I was given a room that needed to take the stairs and you can hear that they are doing some constructions in the another room however I truly understand the situation so I still recommend it.

Great location and friendly staff.
Pros:

The location is very good, just across Robinsons mall, restaurants, groceries and a bank. The check in is seamless as well as the check out. The staff are all accommodating as I requested hair dryer and iron.

Cons:

The heater in the shower takes time to warm up. Also the restaurant that serves breakfast opens at 7am, maybe they can open early for those travelling.

Less than...
Pros:

The location is what keeps this hotel alive (imo).

Cons:

Everything else is underwhelming. The cost should be atleast 500php less per night. Tv volumes jumps or isn't loud enough, hot water is better during the day and not night (when its necessary), window view isn't really a view

Hotel is poorly maintained, periods without water to bath ruined the stay.
Pros:

The staff were friendly

Cons:

Hotel is poorly maintained. Daily issues with hot water and then periods of no water at all, then dirty water coming through the shower. The main things I need in a hotel room are a bed and a working shower. Since the bed is super budget and hard, I would at least expect working water. That was not the case and at times I had to walk around in the humid heat, without bathing that day.

Won’t stay here again!
Pros:

Cold showers unless you leave water running for 15 mins and water pressure was some drips at best, service was terrible to poor. I stayed here last year and it was just ok but had good service,but it’s terrible now. Look for accommodation near SM Mall don’t waste money on staying here!

Grossed out to the max
Pros:

That it was next door to Robinson mall

Cons:

Our beds had blood stains on the fitted sheets and on the floor in the bathroom. SoOoo disgusting which means they don’t changed sheets after each check out and clean the floors…. It was soOo grOss. On top of that we had 5 rooms and paid 3,000 pesos each. Not worth it at all!!!
