Oasis Paco Park Hotel

Moved from my first hotel in Manila, to this hotel, and didn't regret it. Very quiet part of town, but short walk to Jeepney route. Opposite Paco Park, previously a small cemetery. Didn't eat at the hotel, so can't comment. Rooms ere a good size, there was also a table outside the front door for use. Only two tv channels, as something was broken according to the maintenance guy, it wasn't clear what was broken. Pool in the shade for much of the day. so water a little on the col side. A nice bonus to have use of a pool for this price in Manila though. Needed a taxi at 0430 on the day that I left, and was worried that I might have to wait, so asked the night before for reception to order one. When the call came at 0425, I thought it was to tell me that the tai had arrived; it was actually reception though, asking whether they should now call the taxi. A very stressful end to what had been a nice break.

First the good part.....the people running the place were very helpful and nice. Not sure about the other rooms, but ours was made of cheap materials and was old and run down. The cracked floors were made of cheap vinyl laminate and was much in need of painting. Desperately needs a renovation to warrant a four star user rating.

Far from nightlife, bad rooms, old sanitair, cold water in shower, beds not soft and old. Breakfast expensive but good coocked. I would give it a 1 star rating. Smoking not allowed even outside in open air..
