Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's rooms were decorated nicely to my liking, but sadly the showers in all the rooms were not working, and we had to call for maintenance to fix the very dirty, clogged showers and bathrooms. The rooms felt a bit dilapidated considering the high price we paid.
The hotel rooms were very nice and comfortable even though there was a broken bidet that sparked in the middle of the night and a weird tapping noise from a pipe. The service was polite but inefficient, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. The location, although good, was described as unmaintained. The dining experience was not commensurate with the price paid.
The hotel has a good location at Poro Point, San Fernando La Union, making it perfect for easy access. However, the rooms are not well-maintained, with dirty and clogged showers that needed fixing, even though there are fun amenities like video game consoles and billiards available at the pool area.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was just perfect for us, nestled at Poro Point in San Fernando La Union, but it was far from the bustling business center. The service was exceptional with a warm welcome and efficient staff, although some were polite but rather inefficient. The rooms, unfortunately, were not up to par, with some cleanliness issues and old furnishings, but the dining experience was pleasant with good food options.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were spacious and cozy, with very comfortable beds, but unfortunately, the showers were not well-maintained, and we had to call for assistance to fix the dirty, clogged showers and bathrooms. However, the availability for a same-night booking was a plus.
The hotel offers spacious rooms for a high price, akin to a five-star hotel but with a disappointing buffet breakfast. The location is perfect, although the dining experience falls short of expectations.
