This was the worst hotel i have ever stayed in. I arrived shortly before the check in time. My room was ready, but i was told if i wanted to check in early it would be a 1,000 piso fee.
After i checked in, i learned that the pool inside the hotel was closed, the television wasn't working because the cable was out, the elevator wasn't working and i had to use the service elevator. I went up to the room and i found a used bandaid was stuck to the bathroom floor.
I went down to the front desk and complained. The front desk acted as they didn't care. The entire stay i had no television service. I should have been compensated for all of the issues, but i wasn't. The hotel menu was overpriced.
I ended up eating dinner at the nice Savoy hotel for half the price of the Belmont. A hotel manager should have contacted me when i complained about all the issues .The bellman was chatting with the taxi driver outside and recommended the taxi service. I got into the taxi with a friend who lives in the area. The taxi driver intentionally took us in the wrong direction. My friend who lives in the area stated to the driver that he was going the wrong direction . The taxi driver still kept driving the wrong direction to run up the taxi fare. Finally i said stop and let us out. After we exited the taxi, we got another taxi which took us in the correct route. It cost me twice as much taxi fare because of the taxi the hotel recommended. I felt cheated and taken advantage of by the hotel.
