Basically this place is nice, the staff are excellent, we had a cheap alright dinner there as well.
But the most noticeable thing about this place, as nice as it is, is that they had Amazing photographers take photos of the grounds. The photos don't truly reflect the surroundings of the rooms, or the fact that the pier deck overlooking the river goes over a shanty town with dirty water. Also didn't have any of those flowers in the toilet as per the photo (we were in delux room).
Only really one pool was useable (next to the bar) since the other had loads of things floating in it.
Don't get me wrong. the room was clean and nice, (although because it is surrounded by open patio, you have to keep the curtains closed a lot which makes it quite dark).
Bit far from things though:
ALTA to SM/Mall or Ayala, and ferry port about 40 minutes maybe a bit more
airport to ALTA 40 min maybe more.
Tip: NO MATTER what a taxi driver says, take the meter. it starts at 40php and will always be cheaper than set price. EVEN with traffic.
