My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was great, just in front of Zamboanga airport; however, the noise from the street outside the 8th-floor room was a major downside. The service was a hit or miss with friendly and helpful staff but also unresponsive individuals.
I stayed on the 8th floor of the new hotel building with a stunning view of Zamboanga City International Airport, ensuring a quiet and comfortable stay. The rooms were comfortable and had beautiful views on both sides. The location was perfect, away from city traffic right in front of the airport.
Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious, clean, and beautiful, although some insects made an appearance after returning from being out. The location was convenient, near the airport, but the noise from the street at night was a disturbance.
