We tried two different rooms and each one had major issues. The first one was worn with wallpaper coming off in spots, tv never worked well, there was no hot tub on property. The next night I upgraded to a Jacuzzi room and the tub didn't work, there was a layer of dust on the furniture, a couple of cobwebs on the walls.

There is a rooftop-pool (open 4pm - midnight) and a pool in the ground floor (open till 4pm). In the ground floor pool, serious swimming is not really easy, because it's usually very cold and there are a lot of obstacles in the water. The rooftop-infinity-pool is very beautiful. Serious swimming there is easier, but it is small and only open from 4 pm. The restaurants have delicious food. They are a little more expensive than the restaurants outside the hotel. When checking in, each room gets 2 bath towel and 2 pool towels. Additional towels cost 100 pesos each. Changing a pool towel also costs 100 pesos. The restaurant on the rooftop has very nice view. The room was very nice. The personnel was friendly and helpful. There's lots of bars, restaurants, cafes and also a Seven Eleven (8 mins walk) nearby the hotel.

Check in was super easy. My flight arrived at 6am and I arrived at the property at about 11. Check in wasn't until 3pm but they had a room ready and was able to accommodate me as I was tired. The front desk staff were super friendly and handled my every need. Bell service was available to handle my bags that was great. I got one of the less expensive rooms but it was still large with a king bed and a partial view of Subic Bay. I was happy. The only thing missing was a microwave. I had left overs from the restaurants and couldn't heat them. There is a fridge with a stocked mini bar with things for purchase. There were chips, several types of beer, coke, sprite, milk and a couple types of juice. I ate several times at the two restaurants. They have large menus and the food was very good. Service was fine and about what you'd expect. Overall the value was pretty good and I'd stay again.

Booked here and then read a lot of recent bad reviews….my experience was the exact opposite. All the staff were extremely friendly. Anything I needed was dealt with as quickly as possible. I had a jacuzzi suite- jacuzzi worked great, the room ahead an incredible view, room service was affordable and quick, front desk staff arranged taxi service for me, air conditioning worked great and I didn’t see any bugs. Sure there are locals trying to sell souvenirs-but that’s everywhere in the Philippines! I bought some cool bracelets off a guy on the beach. I’m not too into clubbing, but if you are there’s a lot of nightlife. I chose to stay in and enjoy my room most of the time. Would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat! 10/10
