Not Worth It

Reviewed By Elle_gurl

We went there on June 4 for an overnight stay as that is the only available slot. The place was ok and not impressive as the pictures, a bit unkempt but the worst part are the services. The place is quite isolated. Even if you are a guest you have to make a reservation in their only restaurant in order to have dinner at the buffet, Mind you, front desk does not inform most of their guests of this upon check in. We were refused entry at the resto and many guests had no choice but to find their luck outside the "resort" Lucky for them and unlucky for us we told front desk that we were never advised upon check in so they allowed to go on. It turned out we have to order from the limited menu since they still won't allow us to eat from the buffet. We reluctantly agreed as we have seniors and children in tow who don't wanna drive out. Our food came in batches with 30 minute interval each time. First the tomato soup that tastes like it came from a can. Then the sad ceasar salad, next came the seafood fritters which consist of, french fries. calamares that tastes like rubber and battered canned tuna. After almost 2 hours we can't take it any longer and just asked them to serve the fried chicken to go. We paid over 6,000 pesos. When we got to our rooms, the fried chicken were all burned, tasting like charcoal. I was livid at this point but still i coolly asked the manager what he can offer He washed his hands and blamed the chef! He begrudgingly gave me the option to refund the chicken or he can cook us another batch. It was already 10:30 I asked him if they can buy us food outside as I am so reluctant at this point to eat the food. He said he can't risk his staff at night So I told him that he has inconvenienced his guests and now we are all hungry with nowhere to go I ordered him to refund us the chicken and make sure to cook another batch with no charge. Told him this is the worst service and they claim to be a 5 star resort! The meal was delivered to our rooms at almost 11:30 with a slice of apology cake The next day the breakfast buffet came in second worst! Slice of hotdogs, runny scrambled eggs, danggit and giniling with a side of over riped fruits! Worst hotel!

EL Navi Surftown

Standard Budget Accomodation

Reviewed By jfmarzan

The main consideration in this review is the cost of the room This is where everything revolves around in. Prior to leaving for La Union, I tried to get in touch with them through Facebook, IG, and text. I got initial responses of greetings only and they never replied after. My friend had to call them to continue with the transaction. It was not a good start to a vacation. We managed to book the standard room for 2 for 1880 pesos for an overnight stay. As mentioned, this is where most of the considerations in the review revolves around in. Location The hotel is along the road. You cannot miss it because its almost beside other famous business in San Juan. It is very accessible to the bars, 5 minute walk to the beach behind, restaurants are all within walking distance as well. However, parking is limited. They only have a small space infront which can accomodate 3 vehicles. All others have to park along the road. The building has their own EL Navi restaurant in the first floor. For a first timer, you would not know where to go. We arrived at 3pm and the restaurant was closed from 2 to 5pm for breaktime. There was a small space beside the resto entrance which leads to the stairs going up. There was no sign so we had to contact the poc we dealt with. He came down and greeted us. The reception was in the 2nd floor lobby. We were showed to our room, it was a lot smaller than what we expected. Upon researching online, the standard room appeared to be different and had a bigger space. We were also not given our key not until after 5pm because the person who is in charge of checking in, who was working in the restaurant was on break. Activities Since the hotel is situated in the best location, everything is within reach. They actually have a list of places you can tour outside the restaurant which you can ask the staff to help you plan. However, since San Juan is a surf capital, it's should be top priority. Although the hotel does not employ surfers for their guests, the beach behind the hotel has a hut where surfers hang out and can assist you. Good night sleep Despite the room being too small for comfort, we were actually able to sleep soundly. The bed was comfortable and the aircon was really cold which was good. Value for money Overall, this place deserves a 3 star mainly because it is affordable. You get what you pay for. It is a simple surf hotel with standard amenities.

Cozy Balay

Reviewed By 573macs

We spent the night here at Balay on our way going to Ilocos. We enjoyed our stay. The rooms were cozy, spacious, and very clean. The whole place has an Ilokano vibe to it. My kids enjoyed staying at the garden. What I loved most was "Basi" - their restaurant located at the topmost floor which offered a relaxing ambience, nice view, and good food! Thank you Tita Remy for graciously hosting us. Very much recommended!

Hotel Mikka

You pay what you get

Reviewed By MVPatootie

I booked here on the morning of my travel so it was very short notice and good thing is that they have rooms available. The reception area is located at the second floor and I am not seeing any escalator and elevator during my stay, since I am a fit young lad it was not a problem for me, however for those with pwd I think it might be quite a challenge to stay here. The staff was very courteous and help me with direction and best ways on how to get to certain place. As mentioned, I went to La Union on a very short notice. The hotel is just near drugstore, food places and even attraction (Macho Temple). And few blocks from the hotel you may arrived with the night market, lots of good food choices for affordable food and local ones. The hotel is really cheap compared to any other hotels nearby based on my research for this sudden trip. The room definitely needs renovation, the TV is this very small box type kind, the aircon was just enough for the room even very cold during the night, however the heater on the bathroom is not working. Anyway, overall if given a chance that you do not have much option to a place to stay in LU, I think this is okay for what you pay for.
