I spend 3 nights in FCP in a shared room. But I was alone in this room. Mysteriously 2 cellphone of mine wrapped in Aluminum foil disappeared when I was there. I was asking for help to look into the camara footage via email. Took them long to reply. Yes they searched the room three times for me but they didn't find it.
Than they searched my trashcan. Like they looked what is inside of my trashcan when I left. They found aluminum foil which I always use. Than they found some injectables as I am injecting myself an antibiotic as I felt sick after traveling. I work in the field of medicine.
After a few days the story went through the village that I am doing strong drugs and that they go to the police ^^
Well they are a little bit not so cool. After a filed a case they denied this. But is was confirmed by the whole village. Even the Barangay hall got scared about it as FCP Brand is rich and they need to keep a good image. They think I am stupid HAHAHA.
Most of staff seem very unhealthy also, which for such a place to me seems not so professional and good. Also they are not really smiling much except of the coaches, which seem professional to me. Many smiles were fake smiles, easy to see.
As someone who worked with famous artists and the most famous nightclubs before and lives in the village where FCP is located since 10 years (I am a LOCAL), oh I have a lot to tell what is working not so good over there.
For example when I arrived I directly saw that the staff and the management is not so good. Or that many things are overpriced. Or that they are not really caring much about the brgy bagungan local.
I DIDN'T LIKE IT.
I told them that I am friends of people since looooong that are accepting FCP here and even give them a home. Most villagers accept them only because of their shiny and rich image. And that's it.
I also tried to give them advice on how to run this place in a more proper way, as the potential is good. But it could not be accepted by a stupid little ego. Laughable. The way this place is managed, promoted and priced is really not good. The best is, they contacted Google to delete my review. Their little criminal egos can't take it? Unbelievable. It's an honest review. So take it. You make mistakes. And that's it.
Some strange people there. Needs a lot of improvements!
More feedback:
The Gym is very good. The service and most of the staff is very slow and depressive. The coaches are professional and very good for what I see (I trained in many schools over years long ago).
The solo apartments are overpriced for 4.000 Peso a day. The bunkbed rooms are rated and priced fairly for 1.000 Peso, as you can use the gym for free and the swimming pool. You also get a free breakfast which is very good. There I would also advice to serve a good juice or real coffee (not instant coffee, this poison should not be served anywhere close to a gym) and INCLUDE. To make it more perfect.
The whole staff (except of coaches) should be exchanged, if possible the place should be managed by a cool foreigner. The staff has no magnetic energy or attitude that is attracting foreigner or makes him feel comfortable. Not at all. Totally boring staff.
My advice is. Go there for a training with the coaches. Use the gym a bit, and that's all. LEAVE.
Well I hope there will be improvements. I filed a report to the barangy about their wrong doing (as now mentioned above) and very lausy handling about the situation accusing me of doing drugs and than keeping that a secret from me. Very lausy wrong doing. For them very bad situation and very bad promo.
Oh and by the way I brought bagungan locals there and payed their sessions, bought overpriced merch from them and I was even offering to them to stay longer in that room.
IMPROVE! You are not doing good!
They banned me for their wrong - doing. That's the only one thing in the Philippines that does NOT match me. If you complain about their wrong doing as a foreigner, they hate you and BAN you, which is a very racist thing in the...
