Homestays in Central Luzon, Philippines

Easy check in friendly staff, smoking area is situated on the 3rd floor balcony. Breakfast is fried egg with rice along with fresh fruit and bottle of mineral water. Lots of takeaway places outside for food. WIFI IS available in the rooms although site says only public areas. Youtube and Netflix is on the TV but couldn't access the cable TV. Clean room and fresh linen. Fridge is available along with towels, body wash and shampoo. Toothbrushes and tooth paste aren't available.

They have a good service, but I was just expecting more.

Good in all aspects

On arrival a gate-house guard let us in without instructions. After a few minutes of confusion we found the reception. We could see that it is just as it looks the photos; a beautiful quality built and very well maintained sparkling clean boutique hotel. We went to their 'Sunset Grill’ restaurant and seated by lovely staff, a little to eager to take our food order. The room was cool and music was calm and ambient. Exhale, after a long drive - perfect … Suddenly things erupted as the gentle music switched to blaring, loud ”Happy Birthday too you” .. the staff waiting our order burst into loud clapping hands. Repeat and repeat the song in different versions, and the clapping! I went out to the garden but it was also playing outside! I was out on the grass oval before I was far enough away from it, my wife and kids following. It eventually subsided so we returned and tried to and relax, but the birthday group was now shouting. A few pesky flies arrived and persisted, and more shouting so we set up outside. I ordered a NZ white wine at 1,900p, and it wasn't pre-chilled..!? We tried to relax and chill the wine, but many more flies, so we go back inside, but flies are inside too. The food came out and it was good, but stone cold mash potato - I dislike being served cold food, and I cant stand flies on us. We went back for dinner after 9pm. I ordered the steak and explained to the new staff shift that my lunch had been cold and to make sure the dinner was hot, especially the potato. It came out stone cold, again! .. with the worse steak I'd ever seen. Right at that moment about 9:40pm as the food arrived they started switching out the lights! We got up and left, forfeiting the food they already had us sign for. The next day while enjoying the beautiful hotel I notice the pool-bar by was not staffed, I found a staff and ordered 2 Budweiser but they only have 1 in stock. The coffee shop was not staffed either, nor the pizza bar. I walked to the restaurant and ordered pizza at the pool, but I am told I’m not allowed to eat it anywhere but in the resto, or in our room!?! The breakfast was awful - nicely cooked but bad choices of products; we forfeit our second day. Then the last day lunch was finally everything terrific! Lastly on the F&B, there was no water source for guests. So the reception kindly refilled our bottles with a source in the back office. The room is very nice and a good size, good AC and has views, but the bed was very hard foam with thin cheap sheets that are too small. Roll over, re-tuck the sheet, repeat, roll, re-tuck. No gowns nor toiletries either. I cannot understand why such a beautiful facility can have so many silly flaws. It is so close to being everything we look for - Boutique, Kid friendly, clean, play ground, games room and great staff with good swimming pools. Such a shame because I don't think we would return, mainly because of the bed. Quality Pillow Mattress Toppers and sheet set wo
