Staycation by JAR - Condo Unit

The location is very convenient. It's just a few meters from Shangri La Plaza and Megamall. It's within Greenfield district so lots of food establishments within the vicinity, as well as pubs. The unit itself is cute - typical for small Asian people. The room was clean and tidy. Though it's small, it doesn't feel cramped. I was able to cook and did my laundry. Well equipped unit for short to long term stay.

There are two things that can be improved: 1) update their address here on Booking.com as well as on Google maps (if that's possible). (Why not put Zitan in the description of the unit?) I booked a transport through Booking, but the address listed is 1km away. It's not a long walk but it can be frustrating when you just landed from a long flight at 2am. 2) put a hanging rod (a rod to hook the hanger) inside the closet; too many hangers but nowhere to hang clothes (other than the one on the balcony which I used for drying clothes). Also, just a heads up for tall people, your head might hit the ceiling if you're more than 6ft tall 😅

The owner of JAR Condo and assistant were very courteous. The unit was very clean and had amenities such as toiletries, hot and cold shower, iron for clothes, drinking water from filter, netflix, cleaning and cooking utensils. The condo was across edsa shangrila and walking distance to sm megamall Walking distance to St Francis Church Across Chowking and 7/11 Nearby Mang Inasal and Wendy's

Receptionist

Excellent value for money. Excellent facilities for cooking, cupboard stocked with everything needed , just buy food, very clean. All kitchen appliances are there, and fully automatic washing machine. Tv was good, including Netflix. WiFi good. Own balcony and very quiet. Owner was very obliging, and provided everything needed for comfortable stay.

Nothing bad to say.

1. The unit is in excellent condition, it is either brand new or well maintained by the host. You won't find anything broken, everything functions according to purpose. 2. The host was very responsive and addressed my complaints immediately. 3. You can wash your clothes, you just have to air dry them after, there is a single rack provided for that. 4. If you need to cook, there is a single hot plate provided and kitchen essentials/condiments. 5. Although I used my own shampoo and body wash, there were more than enough provided, so if you are not specific of brands to use, you don't have to bring your own. Also, there was enough liquid detergent. 6. More than enough trash bags provided and the building has regular timing of garbage collection. 7. Internet was working properly, appliances are working properly, and they are clean. 8. The whole unit was clean, except for the toilet. 9. Location is excellent! 10. The building and the area is very safe, outsiders cannot just access the building which security is a big deal for me. 11. Friendly/polite building staff. 12. You will find police stationed around the area, security guards and K9. You can safely walk to SM Megamall or walk around Greenfield district to get your daily exercise. 13. Vacuum provided and plenty of disinfectant (alcohol). 14. Adapters were provided so you will not have problems connecting your foreign devices or electronics. 15. The sofa was so comfortable more than the bed.

1. Very poor quality of pillows, bed linens and towels. I was only given one medium sized towel (thin one) and i requested for additional towels but were not able to use them, I tried using one of the spare towels as I washed the first one and I was air drying it since the washing machine has no dryer, I had to rinse myself again as I was coated with lint and dry myself off with paper towels as the new towel was so linty even after 2 washes. 2. NOT an issue but more of a heads-up, the unit does not provide hand towels and house slippers, so make sure to bring your own. 2. Toilet bowl was not properly cleaned, I thought the stain was permanent but when I cleaned it myself, it disappeared, so they just did not clean the bottom of it. 3. I found 4 small cockroaches during my entire 12 night stay, not sure if it is unit or building issue. 4. Unfortunately, an adjacent unit was doing renovation or maintenance job during my entire stay, so there were hammering noises during the day and I was recovering from a surgery, I had to take rest even during the day. This was beyond the control of the host, I was just unlucky. 5. You will hear the traffic noise since it is next to a bridge and highway, if you are not particular about noise, then you will be ok.

Great unit, location, price, very clean and presentable.

Nothing, perfect for me and the missus

The place was spotless! I love it’s location and proximity to malls and restaurants.

Cleanliness is superb. Cozy place to spend quick getaway. Accessible/walking distance to popular establishments. Complete basic kitchen amenities and toiletries. Same as the photos advertised. Hassle free check in/out. Accommodating host, highly recommended unit. Would definitely come back.
