I visited the Philippines to get in touch with a special love interest of mine back in July 2018 and stayed for a month there at the Elyseah Condotel. All the time I stayed there I found the staff to be very accommodating and the rooms to be of high standard, great kitchen facilities, tv, cable, bedrooms were far above what I expected in quality for the price. The staff was very friendly and I felt like family during my stay. I plan to stay there again on my next visit and I highly recommend any travelers that want quality for a reasonable price and service that out performs most other hotels in many categories to stay at this hotel rather than pay higher prices for less accommodation. I am very happy with this hotel in all categories.I give this hotel 10 stars.
Formerly known as The Manner Condotel, the OYO 123 Condotel is located at the end of Narisco Avenue next to the Prime Asia Hotel. I was a guest at the OYO for two weeks in March of 2019 and found it provided good value for the money. I had one of the deluxe rooms, the bedroom and bath on a loft above the living area. The down stairs had a kitchenette, a bathroom, dining table, and TV with an oversized chair. All rooms have cable and WiFi. The owners are making an effort to keep the building in good repair. On the day I arrived the big chair next to the TV was replaced. During my stay two rooms on the second floor were being painted. Everything in the room (shower, aircon, stove, WiFi, etc.) was clean and in working order. All the staff spoke English to some degree; this has been a minor issue at some of the other budget hotels I've been at. The OYO benefits greatly from its location. Narisco Avenue offers a gas station, an ATM machine, Saris Sari stores, a 7-11 store, and laundromats. Your can walk to the SM Mall, the town’s main Jeepney (think bus) terminal, a 24 hr Supermarket, and restaurants. Your also a short hop from the Nepo Mall and Apu Church’s Friday flea market. Now the bad news. The wifi is good for regular use but if your planning an all night gaming session your probably going to be disapointed. The second floor rooms are accessible by stairs only. Off street parking is limited and its first come, first served. My room did not have a safe but I did notice two room safes in the manager's office whilst checking out. Lastly, a new hotel is going up next to the Oyo. Until its finished a certain amount of dust and noise are unavoidable. The Oyo 123 Elyseah offers a good value for the money. The owners are making an effort to keep it that way. For a budget hotel you really can’t ask for more.…
I stayed 6 weeks. Naturally they wanted all of the money up front. Like Hotel California, you can never leave. Get used to " I am just the secretary" every time that you have you have a complaint that is what Nina will tell you. Even though she sits in the managers office all day, she says she is just the secretary. The price is good and their is a reason why. There is high-rise hotel going up right outside the thin windows and the construction noise never stops. They are cheap as hell and won't replace anything, they will patch it up. They are too cheap for a pool cleaner, proper chemicals and testing and the pool is always dirty. You will find the staff doing their best to keep it clean but they don't have a clue what they are doing. The wifi goes off for days at a time, there are ants in the kitchen because the units need a good scrubbing. After sleeping in the $20 mattress, your back will ache - guaranteed! There are so many better places to stay especially for long term guests. I would avoid this place at all costs until the construction is done next door and management gets a clue…
With a big room furnished with television set, cooking stove, oven, refrigerator, utensils, dishes plus a couch, table, large bed and bath the place was like small house....with a pool right outside the doorstep, very friendly staff , fast WI FI and the proximity of the place to the Dau bus terminal and Clark Freeport Zone who could ask for anything more.....I would love to stay here again....
Nice Staff, clean, most of all it was duplex units so very specious, better book for more days at one shot, coz the discount is good, there is a pool but not convenient so better forget it, overall is a nice place will be there again
