A little odd that the lobby was on the 4th floor upon arrival but this arrangement streamlined the process of check-in. The cosy coffee shop adjacent to the lobby was a godsend as one had to wait for around 30 minutes for assignment of the room. The room was small but very functional though I was surprised there wasn’t a phone inside the room itself, but was advised that there was a communal phone by the elevators. The QR codes did not work as they directed me to a dead end which was disappointing as I wanted to know more about contacting the front desk and a little more about the area as well. The air conditioner, water pressure, hot water, and CR were good but had to reach out to housekeeping staff on the floor as there weren’t any towels in the room as it appeared they were rushing to prepare rooms for incoming guests. The free breakfast was to my surprise was delivered via room service as opposed to a common dining room, but understandable as space is obviously a premium. Lastly, I appreciated that the staff stored my luggage the morning of check-out to allow me to partake in a morning guided tour on the Intramuros, which was about a invigorating 25 minute walk from the hotel. This Red Planet stay was my first and was a great value overall!
