Read moreOur Stay at Hotel Dreamworld Araneta Cubao: A Disappointing Experience
When we booked the Mega Suite over a month in advance, we were excited about its proximity to the concert venue. Being just across from the venue seemed perfect. However, reality fell far short of our expectations.
Booking and Room Allocation: Despite our reservation, the hotel didn’t have the Mega Suite available upon our arrival. Instead, they offered us two separate rooms, each with a double bed. Given that every other hotel in the area was fully booked due to the SB19 concert, we reluctantly accepted the alternative arrangement.
Room Conditions: One of the rooms had an air conditioning unit that barely functioned. The stifling heat made our stay uncomfortable. Small roaches scurried around the room, and the broken toilet seat was an unpleasant surprise.
Additional Charges: To add insult to injury, we had to pay extra for an additional blanket and hot water. Considering the inconvenience caused by the room mix-up, this felt unfair. And to top it off, the internet connection was poor. On a positive note, the water pressure was good, and hot water was consistently available.
Staff Interaction: The staff was friendly but lacked attention to detail. Basic maintenance issues went unaddressed, leaving us frustrated.
Overall Impression: Our stay at Hotel Dreamworld Araneta Cubao was far from enjoyable. Given the discomfort and inconvenience, we cannot recommend this...
Read moreI stayed at this hotel primarily for its proximity to Smart Araneta, which was super convenient. The staff were generally friendly and accommodating, making check-in smooth and easy. However, I couldn't help but notice some behavior towards Filipino guests with foreigners that felt a bit judgy. I overheard some laughing after check-ins, which was uncomfortable.
As for the room, it started off with a strong smell of paint. Being a digital nomad, the wifi was important to me, but unfortunately, the first room had no working internet. When I reported the issue, the staff were kind enough to move us to a nicer room. However, the second room had its own set of issues. I found leftover shampoos and soaps from previous guests, some hair strands, and a lingering bad smell. The wifi was much better, though, so I just had to bear with it as I was only staying for one night.
The worst part of the second room was the air conditioning. It wasn't working well and was incredibly noisy, making it hard to sleep. On the bright side, the security guard was really helpful when we needed assistance with our bike—it was tough to get it out of the narrow exit.
Overall, the hotel was decent for its budget price, but the experience was a bit hit or miss. It’s great for a short stay, especially if you're just passing through, but there are some areas that could definitely use improvement, like cleanliness and...
