Reviews for One Manalo Place
Review 1:Sadly this is the worst hotel i have stayed at for a long time. The rooms are very sterile and poorly designed.No hot water in bathroom basin. The shower leaks water over the floor. The shower head moves all the time. The power for the room cut in and out many times during our 4 day stay.We went on an all day tour so we woke early for breakfast unfortunately they had no milk so no breakfast. The breakfast choice was very very poor. On our return at 18.30 after a long day we found our room had not been cleaned.So we had to request it. The pool was heavily chlorinated so you could not put your head under water.The room is sound proof apparently. We could hear everything in the next room and outside it was very noisy. There are light switches on the bedhead in the middle so during the night your pillow turns the lights on and off I was told on arrival i had been given a room upgrade so i could not imagine what a standard room was like. Generally the staff were inattentive and not really interested in the the customer apart from a cleaner who was mopping the floor in the lobby area he was helpfull somewhat. Overall very expensive and a bad experience. I would never stay again.
Review 2:The location was close to the airport
Review 3:The key entry in the first room I was in didn't work so they transferred me to a second room and it smelled very heavily of mothballs.
Review 4:The location and friendliness of the staff. The pool was nice.
Review 5:It all depends on the room you get. Some rooms on the first floor are like a cave (there's a small "yard" with a concrete wall in front and your neighboors balcony on top.
Review 6:Pool is nice. Friendly stuff. Medium breakfast
Review 7:its a family hotel & full of screaming children; management should create a healthy balance between single or business travellers & families; management should offer a quiet room just like a children's playroom to provide some overall sanity
Review 8:well-designed hotel; close to the airport thus removes the fear of missing flights due to slow road traffic in Pto Princesa
Review 9:When we where here the place was pact with chinese people. The swimming pool was full with noisy children. We had a room very close to the pool and the rooms aren't so good isolated, so you could hear a lot of noise. Breakfast is very basic and 45 minutes before they closed almost everything was already finished. The girls at the frontdesk are very nice but the rest of the staff is so so. Specially for asian standards. There was no fan so we had to use the aircon, it was very old and loud. From the reviews you think that this hotel is fantastic. The pictures look very nice to. The hotel design is impressive but you need more than a design to get a good hotel.
Review 10:The street next to the hotel has a lot of nice restaurants and a really fun karaoke place. The rooms are clean but with moisty.
Review 11:The rooms are pretty dark with no balcony or just a small one but facing the fens. We added one more night to our original one night booking but had to move rooms after one night which was a bit enjoying for a only 2 night stay.
Review 12:Perfect location if you like us just stayed for 2 nights between our el nido and Boracay vacation. The hotel is close to the airport (2 min drive with a free shuttle from the hotel). Good breakfast and nice pool (it first looked a bit dirty but I think it is from the bambu so blows in the pool). They also had a good gym which was nice to use! There is a few restaurants and a bar as well as a massage place near by so all we needed. We had a good experience that I can recommend!
Review 13:Breakfast: we couldnt use the whole buffet, as a few of the breakfast buffet were empty. The refill was very slow. Pls use name tags for the several dishes
Review 14:The hotel was fully booked on our arrival day. Thank you for the upgrade into the presidential suite...
Review 15:In the Hotel they offered us a lot of activitieds. We booked an underground river tour, a motorbike and a trip to El nido. But we were extremly disappointed as we found out that they charged us more than 200-300 pesos than other agencys.
Review 16:Its a really nice Place, clean and the personal is very friendly. The pool is perfect
Review 17:There was no water at the shower but it was fixed after i called housekeeping
Review 18:The hotel and staff were nice and has a good location very near the airport
Review 19:Seal of the door to the pool has a gap where insects can go through. The team can easily seal it with a rubber or plastic cover to prevent. Wifi access kept getting disconnected from all sections of the room. Management could probably invest in technology to make sure wifi is strong in all areas of the hotel room. Overall, doesn't disregard the fact that the room assigned was great and easy access to the pool.
Review 20:The drivers are amazing. They are fair and does their best to satisfy your request. They go way above and beyond.
Review 21:Overpriced. The breakfast is poor. Despite the hotel was full empty, they give us one of the worst rooms: smelly, no views (the room has a small terrace but it was covered so it was not possible to see a piece of sky)
Review 22:Nice pool. Big bed
Review 23:none really. transport is very accessible.
Review 24:Everyone is helpful and accommodating from the owner, staff at reception Richard,Jo-anne and Tina,restaurant staff,housekeeping, security and especially driver Boboy. plenty of selection at breakfast. their pancakes are Amazing. My kids say the're the best.This hotel is very highly recommended by the whole family.Swimming pool and Gym an added bonus.Clean facilities.options available for those who enjoy karaoke or you can have a relaxing Nuat Thai massage at the hotel's vicinity. Staff help facilitate tours. The owner is very helpful.
Review 25:The room is spacious and comfortable though they might consider having a minibar inside the rooms. Facilities like gym and pool are nice. Staff were ready to assist with guest needs.
Review 26:My husband and I travel a lot and we've stayed in so many hotels. This is the first instance we've been denied borrowing an iron. They just wanted us to let them do it so they could charge us money. We really didnt like that. It wasnt even about the money but the principle that it's very common in hotels to let you borrow the iron if you want to do it yourself. Just as they provide clothesline if you want to wash your own clothes. Also, we stayed in one of the executive suites by the pool and the drainage is awful. The toilet smells so bad as soon as the water starts flowing from the faucet/shower. My mom and brother stayed in separate standard rooms across from us and their toilets dont smell. It must have been just the piping parallel to our room.
Review 27:I like that the staff is friendly. They always have a smile on their faces and they're very courteous.
Review 28:Paid for 3 rooms for my group. 2 rooms were fine but the third smelled very moldy. We were only in Puerto Princesa city for 1 night. Staff did not compensate me for the one moldy room.
Review 29:Nice Rooms, pool, decent buffet breakfast.
Review 30:Wifi stopped working several times and they had to reboot their routers each time, this should be improved. No towels in the gym. Breakfast a bit scanty.
Review 31:Suite right next to the pool was nice. Room itself a bit dark and the bathroom looked a bit dated.
Review 32:Not a big deal but saw spiderweb swaying below the table attached to the cabinet
Review 33:Friendly and courteous staff Great amenities (pool, gym and resto) Several great restaurants in the neighborhood
Review 34:Airconditioning is set on timer, had to switch on every few hours!
Review 35:Staff very friendly and accommodating. 2 mins away from the airport! Facade of hotel very spacious, facilities are simple but chic. Yummy welcome drink!
Review 36:Lovely hotel with great rooms and a nice pool. Limited breakfast choices for western palettes but will do eggs how you like including pancakes. Staff helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.
Review 37:Nothing.i'm happy that i choose to stay to one manalo place.thanks everyone.see you all next time.
Review 38:Meeting the owner on the way to one manalo place ang upgrading my hotel reservation.and it was nice seeing them eating with the guests during breakfast.i feel that this is like a b&b not just a hoel.
Review 39:Everything was great. Occasionally there were small misunderstandingswith the staff, but they always worked hard to work those out. It'snot right next to the beach, but it was an easy tricycle ride away.
Review 40:I liked the wonderful pool, the friendly and helpful staff, the food,the drinks, the beds, the shower, the patio, the restaurants across thestreet and next door, the massage parlor next door, and the fact that itwasn't full of noisy families.
Review 41:The smoking was a big problem and will prevent us from renting there again if it is not corrected. The "smoking area" is located just outside the lobby, which means we walked through a cloud every time we entered the resort. Also, our non-smoking room faced this area and the smell entered our room through the bathroom vent, which couldn't be closed. Residents also smoked everywhere inside the resort, so there was not a place we could relax and be smoke-free. The wifi did not work in the room and was only effective in the lobby. The trash can in the room was small, and only found in the bathroom. The patio door was stuck and could not be fixed.
Review 42:The resort felt new and clean, and the staff were very accommodating. The pool and gym were very nice, and the room was very spacious and modern.
Review 43:No wifi in the room, not enough sunbeds around the pool, average breakfast
Review 44:Nice hotel, close from airport with free shuttle services, friendly staff, clean facilities with relaxing pool and spa - highly recommended
Review 45:The breakfast is pretty much just the reheated left-overs from yesterday's dinner. No selection of breads, no yogurts, no eggs, etc..
Review 46:For most tourists, PP is merely a transit-point for going to El Nido. So, to take a one-night break here, One Manolo is perfect. There is a nice spa just next-doors!
Review 47:Unreliable and slow Internet connection (which is, however, typical for Palawan) - and poor breakfast arrangements: very limited choice, and even than choice being partially exhausted 45 mins before the breakfast finishes... the sight of an empty water bowl with ice cubes, and oily remnants of what-once-used-to-be-butter... on a backdrop with the trolley fully stacked with dirty cutlery is a pathetic experience. The rooms are quite noisy.
Review 48:Attentive staff, free room upgrade, decent TV channel selection, Thai massage facility
Review 49:Nothing particularly negative to say about the hotel, it was adequate but not impressive. Fine for a one night stay, just don't expect great atmosphere.
Review 50:The toilet was placed so close to the shower wall you had to sit sideways. Literally about 2 inches apart.
Review 51:Awesome pool. Very friendly staff. Close to some bar or club but we didn't go there. Good breakfast. About 2 minutes from the airport.
Review 52:The breakfast selection could be more international.
Review 53:Staff is very helpful, always smiling and polite. The hotel is close to the airport and the shuttle from the hotel is free. I love the design of the hotel. Very modern and with a very good gym. They arrange the tours you can do in Puerto Princesa. Amazing massage place right outside the hotel and nice restaurants close by.
Review 54:A bit more variation and consistency in the breakfast menu (keep it either buffet or menu based).
Review 55:I had a wonderful stay at One Manalo. It is in my view one of the best local options in terms of price versus quality. I stayed in S-3, a superior room on the ground floor with doors opening to the swimming pool. The room was very spacious, clean and had very quiet and efficient A/C. The breakfast was pretty good, normally as buffet and other days as choice between local and international. Lunch and dinner was pretty good as well but a bit (as expected) pricier than the local restaurant. But the added extras were the seats by the pool, not travelling and some decent wines to choose from. Another positive attitude of the place is shown by the fact that the toiletries are mostly organic. The hot and cold shower is very good too; the water is very clean and relatively strong. The bed is so comfortable and the pool area is nice as well. The Wi-fi connection is a bit slow especially in the room but it may be due to the weather. The staff is accommodating and always has a genuine smile for every guest and went the extra mile to make the stay more comfortable, a bucket of ice, help with tricycles, directions to restaurants, drop of at drugstore for some emergency purchase of sports tape after a twisted ankle and a few other things that I have forgotten about already. The girls in the reception area are efficient and the house-keeping staff is quick to respond to cleaning requests. I liked the welcome drinks and cleaning towel. The hotel is well located, very close to the airport and yet still very quiet. The centre of Puerta Princesa is around 10 minutes away by tricycle and there are also a few restaurants within walking distance.
