The hotel was clean and smelled lovely throughout. The common areas for activities were small, so taking a stroll to digest after a meal wasn't really an option. The air diffuser in the room was on, so if you find the scent too strong, remember to turn it off.
It's only a little over a kilometer from the airport, but quite a distance from the city center (Boulevard, Silliman University) 🥲. So, city walking on foot isn't really feasible. However, the hotel front desk can help you book a 'tutu' (tricycle taxi) using a ride-hailing app, and the prices are fair and transparent.
The hotel is located down a small lane off the main road, and then down an even smaller lane. After dark, there are streetlights, pedestrians, and vehicles, so it's quite lively. If you can't avoid walking at night, it's not too scary.
I stayed in the 'Pig House' room. It wasn't very big, the bathroom was tiny, and the bed was super soft. If there are mosquitoes, you can ask the front desk for mosquito repellent spray, which is free.
There was a live singer in the evenings, who was quite good. I enjoyed a session of Filipino male singers (with a falsetto voice) 👍. Listening to their falsetto while lounging by the pool was incredibly relaxing.
For breakfast, you can choose one Western or one Filipino dish, then select a rice option and an egg option. Coffee and juice are available at the self-service counter.
