HomeBase Apartment Hotel

spacious and clean rooms great value for money

kindly allot a smoking area

The host was very accommodating to my needs even before the actual stay. The staff was really responsive and accommodating to our concerns too. This is my second stay here so I knew what to expect and fortunately they have been consistent—even let us check in an hour before our check-in time.

The comforter had an odor. But they provided a replacement along with more blanket and towels.

I recently had an overnight stay at Homebase Apartment Hotel in Kapitolyo for my birthday celebration, and I was thoroughly impressed with several aspects of the room. Upon entering, I was pleasantly surprised by the generous size of both the room and the bathroom. The thoughtful design included abundant storage space, even incorporating storage within the bed's frame and a convenient pull-out sofa. The bathroom was a particular highlight, featuring a wonderful rain shower that provided a refreshing experience, along with a large mirror. The room also came equipped with essential amenities like an electric kettle, mini-fridge, microwave, and a hair dryer, which added to the comfort and convenience of the stay. A really nice touch was the passcode doorknob for the room, meaning we didn't have to worry about losing any keys. Beyond the room, the hotel offers Wi-Fi in all areas, which was very convenient. They also have a great common area where you can get free coffee, cook, and dine. Unfortunately, the AC unit broke down during our stay. However, the staff's response was exceptional. Despite being fully booked and unable to offer a room change, they proactively provided two excellent options: either finding us an alternative place to stay or offering a full refund for the inconvenience. We chose not to move, as we were only staying overnight and primarily needed the room for sleeping. The staff quickly provided two electric fans, which made the situation perfectly manageable, and we still had a great time. The staff were truly lovely and incredibly accommodating, further enhancing our positive experience. The hotel's location is also a major plus – it's quiet, and the neighborhood boasts a multitude of dining options within walking distance. For slightly longer distances, tricycles are readily available. We were so relaxed and comfortable that we didn't even think to take photos of the room, which I kind of regret!

The AC broke right before we checked in, which I don't really blame the staff for.

I left my luggage in the admin office but when J got back, it was locked. It was difficult to contact the management. It took some time before someone opened it.

It felt so clean and comfy to stay. I really felt at home and we all enjoyed ourselves and wished we could stay longer. It was clean and well maintained and the staff are super helpful and accommodating. I loved it so much that I’m saving this as my go-to-place if ever I need to stay in the area.

The only thing that challenged me was the parking. It is quite a tight fit but I had a helpful staff help us get in and out. It’s definitely not a turn off as the overwhelming pros outweigh this one con by a mile. Just be sure to pay attention to the parking dimensions so your car fits.

I love the minimalist design of this place, especially the airy shared kitchen and dining area with a beautiful view of Uptown. It’s conveniently located—just a short Grab ride to Uptown without the hefty Uptown price tag, and within walking distance of eclectic coffee shops. Having previously stayed in BGC (near High Street) and Uptown—where I used to live in One Serendra—I’ve experienced different accommodations in the area. But now, whenever I visit the Philippines, this will be my go-to stay for an entire month, even if I’m traveling outside Manila. It offers great value for long-term stays and a perfect balance of convenience and affordability
