This is an amazing hotel - especially for the price. The setting is beautiful, the common spaces feel very familial, and the staff are extremely friendly. The only negative is that the internet speed was extremely slow. But if you love small, clean, personal hotels - this is the pick for you.

Nice secluded motel in the heart of Iloilo.
Loved that the room is poolside. The small friendly staff made it easy to become acquainted with them. Angeli, April, John and Quincy always met or needs quickly and with a smile.

A memorable stay
A memorable stay at a lovely hotel. The room was comfortable and clean with good facilities. Breakfast was included and a varied menu. It was plentiful and very well prepared and cooked. The hotel has a restaurant/bar and the menu catered for both Filipino and International clients. Again, the food was very good and plenty of it. The staff make this hotel special. the hotel only has 12 rooms which makes it very friendly and personal. I cannot rate the manager and the staff more highly. First class service, first class attitude, first class smiles and first class attentiveness. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they always had a greeting and smile for you. The 2 main staff that served at meal times were Angeli and April, but The manager Quincy and Den Den, John Rey, Nelson, Pamela, Richard, Aaron, Darin and the kitchen staff all need a special mention. The swimming pool and the surrounding area's were always clean. A lovely touch was also the free snacks in the afternoon at the bar area. If you are visiting Iloilo I highly recommend trying this lovely hotel. The only negative I can say is sometimes there is a little traffic noise from the highway but this is just a small observation. SM Mall, bars, clubs and eating places are just a short ride by jeepney or taxi.

I liked hotel. Service as great. My only issue was that choice of breakfast was limited. Fruit wasn't that good. For the price paid breakfast should be better.

Great Hotel with superb pool
Lovely Hotel in a quiet area but close to shopping and restaurants. Rooms were adequate with table and chairs on the terrace outside your room. Pool area was really nice. Good bar and food being served. The staff were very courteous and treated each request efficiently and effectively. I would thoroughly recommend this Hotel.

Great service. Very Professional. Central location
Really enjoyed our stay. Quincy at the front desk was the most professional receptionist I have ever met in the hotel industry in the Philippines. Her knowledge and attention to detail and service was impressive. We checked in to our room which was cozy. I have never seen a hotel room with black/gray sheets, usually they are white but it was still comfortable. Bed was soft and so were the pillows. The linen spray/disinfectant spray was too strong on our room and our allergies were acting up and swollen and they immediately transferred us to the other room which was great. They also gave us welcome drinks and were very accommodating. Walking distance to bus terminal to other parts of Iloilo (Miagao, Oton, Guimbal, Etc). Walking distance to Molo Plaza, Church and Mansion and even Smallville. All less than 2km or 1mile.

Superb - good value of your money
nice small boutique smack in the middle of a bustling city atmosphere yet once you entered the gate, you are transformed into somewhere out in a beach or a resort. Comfy, clean, pleasant invironment. Staff is exceptionally friendly and effecient. Free breakfast for 1 guest and swimming for 2 guests. Good deal for your money. A well kept gem in the heart of Iloilo City.

Boutique hotel - True reso feel whilst in the city
Staff was solicitous and quick to anticipate your needs. Very accommodating. Short cab ride to city center and places like Plazuela and the Esplanade are an easy walk. Go to Esplanade around 6am to enjoy a cool morning brisk walk or jog.
