De la Borda

At least my room had toilet paper. My friend’s room did not. Rooms are in terrible shape. No AC or a fan. Very hot room. If you can open the balcony door to get fresh air, the mosquitoes will keep you company. Washroom pretty dismal. Cold water shaving and shower. Then goodness we checked in late and checked out early the next day. It makes me cringe just thinking about it.

There was no internet, you had to go out into the hallway because it didn't reach the room. They only gave two towels for a three-bed room, the restaurant was terrible, they offered things they didn't have and they were never able to serve us. We had to go out to a restaurant outside because they didn't serve us at breakfast

First the positives - Great views of the city - Cheap - Heritage property - Extremely friendly and helpful staff - great balconies with lovely views of the city to sit with friends and have a drink - Great garden Negatives - Majorly Run down - Old linen. hard pillows - Moldy bathrooms with rusting taps/ showers - Restaurant/ kitchen ...nothing to write about though they did charge my 10 pesos for a bowl of ice - No air conditioning in the rooms. As it was hot had to ask for fans which I had to carry from the reception as no one else was around. And also no intercom in the room Okay for an overnight stay like what we did but would not recommend it for longer stays. We just spent the night in the room and had some late night drinks in the balcony. But that´s it. It´s ok to rough it out with friends. Am going again next week with my parents to celebrate Mom´s birthday but would definitely not take them here. Btw...no fitness center and no room service. And also...after a very long time saw the old TVs with round backs (the one´s which had cylinders in them not like the flat screens of today)
