Delicious Seafood Delights

“I recently dined at Lai Lai's Seafood Restaurant during my stay and was truly impressed. The selections were extraordinary, with dishes like the steam king fish and halaan guisado stealing the show. The servings were ample and reasonably priced, making it a great choice for a satisfying meal. Their halo-halo coffee was a standout as well, especially perfect for the warm weather.” view full review

I stayed at this hotel for a birthday event, and while the room was spacious enough for five people, there were some issues that dampened the experience. The bathroom had a bad drainage smell, and the hot water was non-existent. Additionally, the dining options below the hotel were quite disappointing with below-average food quality and unclean restrooms. On a positive note, the location is convenient for shopping and the staff were very respectful and eager to help.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room was spacious and comfortable, which was great for our birthday stay. However, there was an unpleasant smell in the bathroom, and the hot water didn’t work at all. The dining experience was subpar, with food that didn't meet expectations. Despite these issues, the staff was very helpful and friendly throughout our visit.
