Reviewed By moniquecover

My husband and I booked at Angelina at the recommendation of a friend. First of all, the night we arrived, we literally walked out of the ocean from our boat onto the beach in front of Angelina. We dropped our suitcases and asked for menus at the restaurant. After traveling for 24 hours, all we wanted was wine and food. The pizza was delicious! (Needless to say, we ate there at least three more times that week.) From the start, the staff was always attentive. They walked us to our room after dinner, where they had already moved our bags and turned on the AC. From then on, our room was always clean, and the staff was always helpful. Our Asia room was lovely with a seating area and balcony. The shower was great, except the drain would clog. We would definitely return.

Sky park is a decent place to stay in the city if you’re on a budget. We stayed at the 3F where the wi-fi is fast & reliable inside the room. Comfy double bed & pillows, clean sheets. Basic cable TV with hot & cold shower. Restaurant (with room service) that serves food as early as 6 in the morning & as late as 9 in the evening. Courteous staff, working elevators (recommended for Seniors/ PWDs) Tip: there is a 24 hour food hub just outside the place. A lot of sari-sari stores within the area. Convenient stores/ malls are nearby. Accessible location.

Orange Mangrove Pension House

Japan Feels

Reviewed By Aillen L

Pension can easily be located since it is just along the road; a 5-minute drive to Cathedral and 7-10 minutes from Pasalubong Center to Orange P and it’s only 100php for 1 tricycle. They had a hard time finding my reservation since Traveloka is a subsidiary of Expedia. We had the Standard room with BF and we were informed that their standard is a bunk bed, but they offered the queen bed with shared bathroom (just beside our room). It was clean and sweet-scented room. What I love about was their big mirror at the lobby. Wi-Fi is slow as expected. Plated breakfast as shown in the picture. They have soap and tissue but no shampoo, so better bring one. Staff were friendly. This pension is highly recommended for those who want to stay on a budget yet classy place and near to airport, pasalubong center, cathedral and bajao.

Good thing they had good wifi

Reviewed By SammySilv

We had to take an urgent trip to cebu so we didn't make any reservations, My boyfriend suggested Casa Rosario, when we checked in we had to wait for the rooms to be ready and it took them almost an hour. Our orders are also served late because according to them they lack in manpower. The rooms and the overall place was clean tho and it was right next to a 7eleven store which was a huge convenient and it's also located in the city center.
