I's Plant Hotel and Restaurant — Hotel in Calbayog

Good Morning

This is my late review as my 2 days stay here during GCQ in the area since this was shown when we are looking for a hotel we did try to stay.

First they are accommodating since no office during weekends as the guard told us..so our room cost 1,450 pesos with seperate bed. Nice room, CR with bidet and heater, cable tv, cold AC, nice wifi connection and ref inside the room. Service water needed upon request also there's a pool, cottage and restaurant, ballroom room, conference, its like a package. There's also vicinity for standby in the corridor and lobby even massage chair. Parking lot available for those having service, they also have cleaners room so you can ask for cleanup.

But since ECQ, GCQ, MECQ around the manitenance of the building and room quite disgusting but understandable . Our room have dusty curtain so need to be change, AC filter to dusty i clean this out, the room to dusty too even the tv. Inside the Ref have foul smell and molded everywhere. No office during weekends so its kind of downfall..upon checking the building i dont see cctv working and telephone under maintenance..remote of tv not working may be due to battery. CR no heater not working, the curtain getting molds. Weak wifi in room but outside strong connection..for standby area in the lobby too many mosquito..pool not for service since unclean water.

The hotel is on quarantine shelter for those frontliners so it was late notice for us. We stayed here just for resting for the upcoming storm.

Overall if not in pandemic this is good place to stay but since pandemic its understandable that the service is...

(I'm a foreigner.) The room was fine, it had some desks, clean sheets and towels. The hot water was working, which id say is a 50/50 shot. The AC wasn't tho, it was running but not really cooling, it was very noisy tho, sounding like a jet engine and bacon frying on a pan at the same time. But that's how it goes here in the Philippines. Some things work and others don't. We didn't hve breakfast there, cus we were told it wasn't that good, so decided to go to Shakey's across the street. The place was nothing special, we got a bed to sleep in so it did the job. Oh, and they have a pool, it looked shallow tho, and the flooring seemed discolored so we decided...
