Microtel by Wyndham Batangas

The neighborhood is quiet, perfect for rest. The hotel needs to be upgraded for a better stay. Facilities should be improved to make up for the lack of activity in the vicinity. Hotel staff were also very nice and polite. The only problem we encountered was when we walked in and asked for an available room but were told the hotel was fully booked. Prior to our arrival I checked online and found available rooms. That's why we decided to walk in. The receptionist was apologetic that the hotel was booked. So we went out and I checked again online only to find the same rooms available. I booked online, got a confirmation thru hotels.com. I even called the hotel to make sure. At the hotel, i showed the receptionist my confirmation reference. He mistook me for another guest and gave me the wrong booking form to sign. I asked why we were turned down the first time and he explained that there might be a guest who cancelled. I no longer stressed that the room i booked was available even before we walked in. All in all, the stay was okay. There's much room for improvement though.

ok for short business trip

We had a comfortable stay in Santo Tomas. The room was clean, the staff were pleasant. The room we had was on the ground floor and we could hear everything in the hallway (anyone in the hallway could probably hear our conversations in the room). Overall, we had a decent experience.

古い建物だが部屋はある程度清潔に保たれていた。 ただシャワーのお湯が出なかったので、また泊まりたいとは思わない。 エアコンも簡易的な小さなものしか付いていないのが残念。

stay 2 night there. first night, to get into sleep switch off aircon. breakfast is ok, although not many choice. Staff are friendly. 2nd day, hotel changed to larger room, aircon still noisy--. sleep with aircon turn off. Jap restaurant beside hotel is nice. choices of food are excellent. i went to street for some beer, just beside guided entrance, a 24 hrs convenient shop.

We chose the Microtel after checking out 2 other hotels closer to San Pablo. This hotel was much nicer than the others and definitely worth the extra dollars and time spent traveling to and from San Pablo by bus each day. The hotel has a new or almost new appearance inside and out and the rooms are very nice for what Wyndam advertises as no frills - you definitely don't feel like your in a no frills room because everything looks new, nicely color coordinated, and very clean. The breakfast buffet is nice as well, although not as large a selection as the 5 star hotels in Manila. Overall I was highly satisfied and would want to stay there again when in the area.
