We checked in last Sept.15-17 in Fili hotel we had a blast my family were satisfied all the services they offered. The hotel is a five star hotel, so its all worth it what you paid for. The last day we checked out accidentally we left my sons’s iphone in the room we noticed it when we were on the road heading home. I messaged the duty manager MR. STEVEN ROYO SANTIAGO assured to me that phone is just there in the room. Other staff were looking and asking others to help them to find until MR STEVEN SANTIAGO personally went to the room and searched and he found it. I am so happy, HONESTY and INTEGRITY is the right words for you sir STEVEN thank u so much.

The hotel markets itself as a 5-star hotel in Cebu but it is way waay far from that star rating. I will be listing down good things about this hotel but you also have to consider the following items that I listed below. Pros: 1. It has the better ball room/ convention halls in the entirety of Cebu. 2. Rooms are spacious and new 3. Elegant interior and facade Cons: 1. First night, I reported that there is a foul smell in my room but the telephone operator sarcastically told me that the hotel is fully booked because of the event that we were having. The duty manager came and told me that all of the rooms smell just like mine. What he did was spray an aerosol. I even said to have an air filter or aeromatic in my room to help remove the smell while sleeping. He guaranteed to have it delivered but none came to my room that night. We are out the entire day so on the second night upon entering my room, I complained again because apparently none from the housekeeping nor from the front desk tried to resolve the issue. This time, the smell was unbearable. Like something was wet and it didn't dry off properly. I waited outside the room because the telephone operator told me that the attendant will be in my room in 15 minutes to spray again the air freshener. So I waited outside. 20 minutes passed, I called again and told that no one came. The same duty manager (from last night) arrived a couple minutes later rushing and now told me that there is indeed a foul smell in my room but to my dismay, we waited again outside the room because the attendant was not with him. This time, he told me that the foul smell has been a common problem they receive. This statement surprised me considering we talked about this the night before and he gaslighted me about my complaint. This time, he offered to transfer me and upgrade my room but with all the stuff I have, I told him I do not want to transfer and just to resolve the issue. He then sprayed the air freshener and decided to leave it here. Basically, my issue stopped because I stopped complaining, not because they resolved my issue. 2. Hallways going to guest rooms smell paint and construction materials. Even the elevator smelled like this. 3. Breakfast was repetitive. 4. You can see construction everywhere. Most especially to the rooms on the lower floor. While the ”soft opening” phase is acceptable with all the construction and eye sores, customer service should not be compromised. If you are planning to stay here, please manage your expectations.
