Fat Jimmy'S Resort Boracay — Hotel in Malay

I enjoyed staying at Jimmy's hotel. The room is bright. It has 2 big windows in the in the main room and place. My windows in the room is cool. there is no elevator but my room was on the 1st floor very easy to get to a little bit of a problem with the sliding door like it wasn't very, very smooth. However, it's little trouble. Hotel Is in the middle of the main attractions. One point is. The room is located right in front of a garbage collection spot and the smell when you go back to your room can be like all the stay unpleasant. The staff are friendly. What else: there are 4 big pillows in the room. There is a fridge. There is also a nightstand and a shelf, and there are wall hangers, so it's comfortable. There is enough space for everything and also there is a balcony outside of other room with the table and 2 chairs. You can wash your clothes and hang it. It's it's great, actually is it's perfect the only issue are the curtains You know, in at 6 AM in the morning. They don't really fully cover the whole main glass door so the light comes in the room, so you got the very early morning light spoiling your sleep. However, that doesn't really bother me much. Also, the bad is...

Four stars. Budget lodging that offers good value for the money. Not on the beach but just a few minutes away. Clean rooms. We did NOT see any pests (ants, cockroaches, etc) in the rooms. Good location because you are a few minutes away by foot from both the tourist trap establishments and places where locals shop / spend their money. Secure.

I need to say that staff head Ms. Arlene really impressed us with her integrity. Due to an error on our part, we were booked as 5 heads (considered adults) with 2 rooms; in reality it was 3 adults and 2 babies. Ms. Arlene (and Security) on day one of our stay noticed that we were overpaying. We were NOT even aware of the ongoing billing error. SHE TOOK THE INITIATIVE TO CORRECT THE OVERBILLING to correct it in our favor! Wow, talk about restoring faith in human nature: honesty is a rare commodity nowadays. Thank you Ms. Arlene. Great job.

It is not the Boracay Shangri-la, but it fit the bill this time. ...

Waste of money. I booked for a one week vacation in Boracay via Agoda. The entrance is near the garbage collection. The room smells like old clothes. There is a spider inside the cr near the shower faucet. The aircon is noisy and cannot make the room cold. You can also hear the sound of the other rooms nearby. There is also no WIFI inside the room. When you go outside the signal is very slow… Their standard has no tv and I have to add payment of 4,500 pesos just to upgrade… The old woman was not that polite. I thought at first she was. But when I asked where is the nearest grocery she told me it’s nearby. But when I asked if it’s barato (visayan word for budget friendly) she told me the cheaper store. When I went out of the hotel I heard her sayin in Bisaya you are looking for a cheaper store, you cannot upgrade a room with a TV… I hope this attitude of the woman...
