Subject: Feedback on Staff Training and Late Check-out Protocol
We are frequent Savoy guests. Our check-in was excellent (paid early check-in at 7:00 AM, room upgrade, and confirmed late check-out until 3:00 PM by Vanie).
However, on the day of departure, we were repeatedly called at 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM by a different front desk officer, who disputed the confirmed 3:00 PM check-out time. This staff member demonstrated a severe lack of coordination, empathy, and professionalism, attempting to bargain and failing to honor a promise made by a colleague due to a system oversight.
Recommendation: Staff require urgent refresher training on communication, coordination, and emotional intelligence.
Minor Feedback: The lobby scent is still bothersome and does not mask the surrounding drainage odor. Please consider a clean, refreshing scent like peppermint or eucalyptus.
Overall, we had a wonderful time. The restaurant though is not that big to accommodate the hotel guests during breakfasf time, so if you go there around 7am or later, you may have to line up and wait for a long time.
The staff in front desk very politely in answering our enquiries, hotel location closed to terminal 2 airport just 5 minutes walking distance.
Overall very convenient to everywhere, will come back .
The hotel is clean, modern, and well-maintained, and the staff are consistently friendly and accommodating. The amenities and buffet breakfast offer good value for money, though both the elevator wait times and buffet lines can get quite long, especially during peak periods like our check-in on December 24. Despite these minor inconveniences, our overall experience was very positive and I would highly recommend this hotel. One suggestion for improvement would be to offer complimentary connecting rooms for guests who book multiple rooms, as this option is not currently available on popular booking platforms like Trip or Agoda. This would make family or group stays much more convenient.

Upon arrival, the security guard assisted us with our luggage, but no one offered further help until we reached the check-in area or when sending us up to our room. The check-in process was smooth, and we went straight to our room.
As we walked through the corridor, there was a strange smell, but we chose to ignore it. The room itself was spacious and had everything we needed. However, cleanliness was an issue. There were stains on the bathroom floor, the non-slip mat was not very clean, and there was some dust around the room. We overlooked these at first.
When it was time to sleep, the pillows had an unpleasant odor, which made me uncomfortable. They didn’t smell fresh, more like dust. Since it was late and my kids were exhausted, my husband simply covered the pillow with his clean shirt so we could rest.
The next morning, I noticed stains on the bed sheets that were clearly not ours. They looked permanent, so I requested housekeeping. The towels also appeared old, no longer white, and while some of the extra towels we requested were acceptable, others were worn out.
Parking was limited, with only a few slots available. Staff informed us that if the lot was full, we would need to pay for parking.
When we returned to our room later, I was disappointed to find that the bed sheets still had the same stains. Housekeeping had only changed the pillowcases.
Overall, the property itself was nice, but cleanliness needs significant improvement. For example, the brown stains in the bathroom should be addressed, the bathroom mat replaced, and the tissue box cleaned, it was black with visible dust and stains.
On a positive note, the air-conditioning filter was clean, which I appreciated, as my previous stay elsewhere had been terrible in that regard.
I’m not sure if I would stay here again. The only highlight was the staff, who were very accommodating and kind.
Bfast is fine the receptionist also are all friendly :) location is fine but i like the car service they can pick u up at the airport and bring u also back to airport its for free
Staff: Wonderful hotel with professional staff. My booking was originally a king size bed but I requested a twin. They did everything to met my needs.
After a long flight I wasn’t in my best mood and they did understand and deal with me with respect and understanding.
Room: simply wonderful as usual.. this is my fourth or fifth stay and I’M will be always my home in Manila.
Since I have a plan to go to arena for volleyball match, the hotel location is really help me out with just 5 minutes walking distance. One female staff was not so friendly (I guess coz we check in at 4am since our flight land late) and helpful but the rest is fine, they actually provide great customer service so will definitely book there again on my next trip.
Our stay was an amazing experience. The staff were very accommodating, friendly, and helpful.
This is my third time booking this hotel, and I will definitely continue to come back. The location is perfect—just a short walk to Dragon Mall where most government offices such as NBI and Passport Renewal are located. It is also close to Baclaran Church, as well as 24-hour shopping and food spots.
It only cost me 100 pesos by Grab from MOA to the hotel.
We extend till 1pm cos my son love to swim at the pool.
I am simply in love with this place.
Seda Vertis North will always be my go-to place especially during days when I need escape or I just feel like rewarding myself.
Great

Very Good
EEndless JourneyThe place is clean and quiet. They changed the linens and clean the room for you everyday if you'll stay for at least 2 nights. Convenient place to stay. Breakfast is fine. It's worth it and budget friendly.
MMR NOBODY76First stay here. Arrived around 12pm and met by Kierk. Received a warm welcome. Fortunately room was ready for me. Check in was a breeze. When I got into my room, my first impression was WOWWWWW! Big room with a sofa bed. Nice carpeted room with a big comfy bed and pillows. A set of soft and firm pillows. Big working desk and complete drink amenities. The shower needed some trial and error though. But I finally manage to adjust the hot water (there’s a safety knob). Strong and warm. Will definitely stay here again.

CCarmssssMySpace Hotel in BGC: A surprisingly great value!
For the price, especially considering the BGC location, MySpace Hotel is a fantastic find. The room I booked was on the smaller side, but you get a surprisingly good buffet breakfast included (though the selection is limited, it's still a buffet!). I was so happy with the complimentary orange juice in the lobby – I honestly lost track of how many refills I had! The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond for my birthday, decorating our room with a sweet towel arrangement and giving us hotel mugs as a gift (we sadly couldn't take them home due to luggage restrictions). The shower was easy to use, and the internet? Blazing fast! My husband and I worked remotely the whole time with zero lag. Highly recommend!

MMarielle29B Hotel Alabang: A Modern Sanctuary in the South
B Hotel Alabang offers a refreshing and stylish alternative to the typical corporate hotel experience in Muntinlupa. Its signature industrial-chic design—featuring exposed concrete, contemporary art, and clean lines—immediately sets it apart, creating a cool, sophisticated atmosphere from the lobby all the way up to the guest rooms.
Distinctive Design and Comfortable Rooms
The hotel successfully blends its bold aesthetic with genuine comfort. Our room was spacious and thoughtfully laid out, with large windows providing ample natural light. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the blackout curtains ensured a peaceful night's sleep. We especially appreciated the modern bathroom, which was spotlessly clean and well-stocked. The overall feeling is one of quiet, minimalist luxury that feels both high-end and uniquely hip.
Excellent Service and Amenities
The service at B Hotel was consistently warm and efficient. The staff was always smiling and ready to assist, from the front desk to the dining area. While B Hotel is smaller and more boutique than some of its neighbors, it doesn't lack amenities. The pool area is a tranquil urban escape, and the fitness center is well-equipped for a good workout. Dining at the in-house restaurant was a pleasant experience, offering a good mix of local and international dishes.
Prime Location
One of the hotel's biggest advantages is its fantastic location. Situated right in the heart of the Alabang commercial district, it provides easy access to major shopping centers like Alabang Town Center and Molito, as well as a variety of dining and entertainment options. It's an ideal choice for both business travelers needing quick access to corporate centers and leisure guests looking to explore the South.
Final Recommendation
If you're looking for a hotel in Alabang that offers excellent value, sophisticated design, and a highly comfortable stay, B Hotel is the perfect choice. It truly feels like a boutique sanctuary amidst the hustle of the city. Highly recommended!
NNicholas DuranteI had a pleasant experience at Richmonde Hotel Ortigas. My first room had a small issue with the mini fridge, but the staff was quick to respond to my issue and helped me move to a new room. The location was good for my business needs, and the staff was very friendly. I recommend this hotel for people traveling on a budget for business.
AATHSBooked the suite it was a good size and clean. The staff were friendly and helpful.
We did however have some delay in getting the room for a large group but all in all the stay waa good.
PS. Wouldn't not recommend the rooftop bar.
