You get what you pay for.

Bathrooms are tiny. First room the bathroom stunk like urine, the water didn't drain from shower so it pooled the whole bathroom floor including around the toilet. The exhaust fan didn't work so the bathroom became wet . There's no power point in the bathroom and in fact only 1 available In the room . After complaining we were put in another room which was a bit nicer but still small bathroom . Tv had many channels but was small, wifi was good and the air conditioning was good but loud . Shower had hot water but the sink didn't and the lighting in both bathrooms was dim . The roof top wasn't particularly a nice place to be although the view of the volcano was good.

Loved this place

Great place! The owner went out of his way to greet me and continued talking with me during our stay and made me feel like a VIP. The view of the volcano from the rooftop was incredible. The rooftop was a great place to hang out and relax. The breakfast was great and their Sizzling Pork Sisig was the best I had while visiting the Philippines.

BEST OF THE BEST

we have enjoyed yet another visit to FJ Manila we asked if we could upgrade our room to a bigger room due to 5 night stay and wanted to know costs associated we were delighted with the response saying yes we could and no charge for the upgrade now that is true hospitality hey! its really great to have that kind of response even though we were aware we booked a room a bit smaller than we needed for 5 night stay. a great hotel and wonderful views of Mt Mayon from the rooftop where breakfast is served and the helpers who have worked here for a long time serve so perfectly and nothing is ever too much trouble for them give this hotel a try. easy access to jeeps and transport around Daraga and Legazpi City

When I needed to find flowers for Valentines day . They went out of there way to get me a nice Bouquet. . Breakfast was okay .. Roof top dinning should have a better looking roof . Great View of the Mountain though . no Elevator . Everything Small and unattractive . Noise outside was loud and keeping me awake at night .

Flooded

The contractor/builder of room 310 needs to learn how to work with a leveler, because the floor of the bathroom is not level. The water of the shower doesn't run towards the drain, it runs toward the entrance of the bathroom. The entire bathroom is standing under water, which means if you get up at night to use the bathroom your feed are totally wet. Otherwise the room was very clean and the price is right. The breakfast looks good but unfortunately the rice and beef Adobo was cold. Very friendly staff.

COMFORTABLE HOTEL...

The hotel staff was excellent , I didnt know that this hotel got a stiff step, because their is no lift. We have a heavy luggage but the poor staff has to carry them up to the top. The room is big and clean. The breakfast is ok we eat in the roof top lucky it was not raining . They have live in massage which is very comfortable. My suggestion is to have a lift in the hotel it is not safe to up and down in a stiff step . Have a better lounge as well . But over all it is a nice little hotel .

Not happy

We had to go without power for over 15 hours and they said they had a generator but they was not able to use it I asked for a single bed and they gave us 2 single beds that kept sliding apart on us, there was no door to the shower so no I am not happy at all. if I could get a refund I would take it.

A quiet place in a busy town

A nice hotel with friendly and helpful stag. We spent three nights there and were sightseeing the legazpi area. Only negative was the plastic madras sea in the bed, they made you sweet even with the aircon on. The roof were a really nice spot to catch a evening breeze and gave a great look at mt Mayon.
