We spent two days in Olongopo to assist Jenny's Sister in getting a job and finding a place to stay.... Booked two rooms with Special Request of Coffee in the Room,,,Not happening,,, the hotel wants you to ask for Hot water by the cup so they can call it Service!... the room is Small and there is a Three Flight Climb to your room,,No Elevator,,, Thus,, absolutely No Service,,,, no breakfast,, lunch or any food service except snacks,,,

This is hotel is adequate for filipinos with small frames. But if your big just like me and my siblings then maybe you need to have a bigger room and not here. We occupied two rooms during our stay. Queen size bed, but let me tell you, the queen size bed i think is smaller than normal. They dont have any dining area other than the small table and two chairs in the room. The set up is like a motel. Just like sogo hotel if you ask me. The door is so thin. You can hear people outside and ofcourse, for sure they hear u outside. Clean room for the price and i hope they can add a fridge on their rooms, that will be helpful as well. They need more light. We have three lights on our room, small bulbs while my siblings have four. The room 309 bathroom smells bad. No windows guys. So if ur like me who likes windows, maybe this is not for you.

I made a reservation here at the last minute because it was only budget priced room availble. Taxi driver triend his best to get me to go to "one of his" places and was going to charge me 100pesos for each place we loked at. Insisted on Ridgecrest and location was nowhere near the beach, but I didn't expect it to be. Was in kind of noisy shopping area but walking distance to nice mall with lots of restaurants. Room was good size , clean and no problems.

04-06 Apr-2014 We took victory liner from Pasay Manila via SCTEX to Olongapo station. The bus went past SM City Olongapo and lately realized we were supposed to alight at SM city and not at the bus station because the hotel is located in close proximity with SM city....It took us time to find the hotel because of very small signage...we were lucky the tricycle driver carried our luggage and helped us find the hotel...The reception is located at the 3rd floor and no elevator but the receptionist are accommodating and bill boys willingly carried our luggage up to the room...the Suite room was clean and nice with 2 queen size bed, worth for 1800...The room was spacious and just enough for us 3 adults and 3 kids. The aircon was quiet but could not cool to its full capacity...called up the front desk and they provided with electric fan. Later at night the room was cool enough. I like the location because it is very conveniently located near the shopping area and restaurants so you can immediately have what you want. The room have TV but not LED, telephone, refrigerator , a dining table for two and a very small closet.. I would recommend this for those budget conscious.

I've stayed here a few times, working in the area and wanted to get away from SBMA. The standard room is quite small but the bed is comfortable. The bathroom is also small but newer and not a big issue. This was just a place to stay for me, wasn't looking for a resort or luxury hotel. Very clean and comfortable and the staff is great and accommodating. I will stay here again and recommend to my friends.

Reserved a room online and paid 10%. Full payment was given upon arrival. Contacted them via their Facebook page with some questions and they were accommodating. Location: Quite easy to find. I highly recommend google maps. We use this all the time before we go to a certain destination.Located along Magsaysay drive. Your landmark would be SM City Olongapo, Max's Restaurant, Lovely Kahael Pawshop - opposite of the hotel. Price is affordable. Room is very clean. Bathroom is big. Shower working well. The hotel however does not have an elevator and the reception is at the 3rd floor of the building. Might be a problem for those who have heavy luggages. If you do not mind climbing 3 to 4 floors up from the main entrance, then staying in this hotel should not be a problem.

I don't know if this can be considered a hotel. It is one of the old buildings along Magsaysay Dr. If you check their website, it doesn't have a photo of the building. Below is a salon and we had to climb up to the 3rd floor where the lobby is located. The lobby you see in their website is deceiving. It looks bigger there but really it's not. Contrary to what is posted in their website, "Parking Available in front of the hotel(first come first serve basis)", THERE REALLY IS NO PARKING SPACE!! Since this building is right besie the road, the only "PARKING SPACE" is beside the road!! We didn't even get any help from them. I asked where should we park ,the receptionist only said just park anywhere there is available!!!!! I asked someone to assist, the girl only apologized and said no one can assist us look for a space since their security guard who is supposed to help will arrive at 10pm and we were trying to check in at 6:30PM!!!! So we parked our car at our own expense. Outside was a boy who talked hubby and "tried" to look for a space in exchange of a "TIP". I realized, these people who are so called "Parking Assistant" cover most of the free spaces with a signage, chair or whatever so no one can park freely and if there would be someone who needs to park, they remove them in exchange for a fee, sorry I mean "TIP" (cough!) My family went up to the 3rd floor - their lobby. We were given keys to our room at the 4th floor!! So we had to climb the stairs again!!!. This so called hotel doesn't have an elevator for pete's sake!!!!!!!!!!!! The only positive thing I can say about them is the room. It's nice for the price. I like the bathroom. However, the battery for the TV control does not work. They only provide a soap and towels, no shampoo. Overall, I didn't like that there's no parking space as opposed to what they posted on their website. It's misleading. I hope they can correct it. I also didn't like the fact that we didn't get assistance from them when we were trying to look for a parking space. I didn't like that they don't have an elevator. But I like that the "hotel" sits along the busy street, walking distance to SM OLongapo, food chains, grocery stores, etc...... For its price, defective tv remote control and no shampoo are pretty fine by me... I don't recommend this "hotel" for travelers with kids or old member of the family (elevator issues). If you can risk your car to be parked outside, then you can stay here... But for budget travelers seeking for basic accommodation, I recommend this.

Our stay in this hotel is very pleasing. The staffs are very friendly and helpful. The hotel is ideally situated. It is a 10-20 min. Stroll to the city proper and Subic bay. The area where the hotel is safe. The hotel and rooms are lavish – completely comfortable. The rooms are spacious and elegantly furnished. The bathrooms are likewise large and clean. Rooms come with air-condition.Two thumbs up!!!!
