So relaxing, and the staff are caring and accommodating. The bedroom and pillows itself would guarantee a good rest. Kitchen is complete with kitchenwares for cooking, as well as utensils. Coffee is also so great. It gives off premium taste.

Excellent stay! My son & I wanted to bond over the weekend & we had a wonderful time. The proximity to Power Plan Mall made it convenient for us to shop & to eat. My cousin lives in Edades. I could just walk over. Aruga at Rockwell is my favorite place to stay!

Aruga Rockwell has been my second home for many years. The staffs are so helpful and accommodating. They always find a way to make your stay memorable! Shout out to Khalil! He has been my oanic button every time I need to extend or check in on a short notice. The entire staff like Irish, Javi, Bianca, Karen, Dan and Nina are all so efficient! They made Aruga what it is today. They are indeed an asset to Aruga!

Easy access to power plant Lots of restaurant and choices Safe and clean area Hotel is tiny but clean with washer/ dryer Housekeeper are very nice & happy to help Front desk needs retraining - standing in front for 5 min. nobody says hi or hello I guess because it’s a condo/ hotel? Prices is comparable to hotel $130 to $175 depending on days -you’re better off at Manila Pen or New World with more offering like spa, restaurant and choices of food at their restaurant.

What was a pleasant stay turned into a fiasco upon checking out. The housekeeping staff checked our room and claimed that we scratched the inside of a casserole found in our room's kitchen. The front desk staff politely asked that we pay for this damaged item. I would willingly agree if I were at fault but, we ate out for every meal. After a few minutes of bantering, the front desk staff let the matter go. Needless to say, the whole experience was in poor taste.
