"This is a bit of an older hotel, but clean and well maintained. The pool over looks the sea and is very nice. They have a bar area that is super large and plenty of parking for vehicles, the place is secluded from noise and loud music which is really nice. The room we received had air conditioning and it worked well unlike other places I have stayed at in the Philippines. They offer free breakfast which was one of the best breakfasts I ever had while staying in the Philippines any where, it was chicken tocino with rice, eggs and fruit. They will bring an electric kettle to your room to enjoy your own coffee as well. I will be back in December."
