Upon arriving, we requested that we stow our bags to the lady at its reception office as we arrived before the checkin time. The lady told us to leave our bags beside the refrigerator which is just a stool located where lots of people pass by and no one really looks after it to secure it. I, irritated, decided to just bring my bags along. Needless to say, upon checkout, we did not stow our bags as well.||On our 2nd day, we went out and placed the "please clean my room" signage outside the door. I even reminded the lady to have the room clean. Upon arriving at the room, it wasnt cleaned. I went to the lady and asked why the room wasnt cleaned and the lady said, "we really do not clean, the only time we clean is upon check in and nothing else after that regardless of the duration of your stay". I realized, the signage was just for show. I contacted agoda and complained, only then that they did clean. FYI, in agoda however, it indicated that this hotel does daily housekeeping.||Further, in agoda, it indicated that this hotel offers BBQ facilities, luggage storage, smoking area, and car park.....no, none of that is true. It has a common kitchen, free hot and cold water on a dispenser, outside eating table and stool facilities though. Ironically, the hotel even had a signage " smoking is not allowed in Lola's Lodge property, inside and outside the room 1000PHP fine if caught" yet it agoda, it says it does have that smoking facility. Regarding the car park, i wonder how that can be when you would need to pass along anl very narrow alley to get there, a car cannot fit along the alley you know! ||The tv remote and bidet is defective. The CR does smell awful, I think it simply needs a P-trap.||I did not bother with the wifi, my phone's wifi works fine.||Other than that, i had a good sleep. The place is very central.||If I were to come back in Bora, i would look elsewhere as I realized when we were going around that there are other nearby hotels that are...
Read moreStayed there for 2 days , actually we book them online , it says that we can check in anytime so we arrived as early as I think around 7am then they informe us that the check in time is 2PM, and informed that we might be allowed to check in by 12 or 1pm!!! Then we decided to go to our first destination , after first destination we decided to go back around 12nn since they let us left our things there, and we ask if we can check in , but the other guy told us that it's 2PM. We bargain I ask the guy if I can take a bath , AND HE SAID YES AND I CAN USE THE SHOWER OUTSIDE GROSS.||I think they should not be that misleading, same goes with the next guest when we are leaving they also thought that they can check in early, but they got informed that it will be 2PM. So they just decided to have their lunch not to ruin their mood for the vacation.||Supposed to be , the location is good sice it's near with dmall and budget mart and other establishments . The room is 4/5 spacious and the aircon's froyon is not that strong anymore it cannot cool the whole room. I think they should add fan inside the room.||for next bookers : be mindful that they will allow you to check in at 2PM so plan your...
Read moreThe standard room number 10 that was given to me was not the room I expected. It doesn’t reflect the photos posted on Agoda.
First of all, the room is really unpleasant. It doesn’t look maintained at all, not to mention, the clogged sink which was clogged when we entered the room and used it. Secondly, there are a lot of mosquitoes in the room. We feared we might get dengue fever. Thirdly, I paid for 3 rooms: Room 9, 10 and 12 and me who paid for all rooms was given the most unpleasant room of all. When we requested to be moved, nothing was done at all nor options were given. We wanted to move to Room 9 but there were a lot of fuss about it before the receptionist eventually let us stay for our last night.
I’m definitely not giving a good review with the horrendous experience and definitely not booking a room with them again. We got stressed instead of being relaxed.
I hope the owner would try to sleep in one of their rooms overnight so they would experience how horrible it could be.
Don’t make me start about the little to no...
