Extremeli Suites

I booked this hotel after reading many online reviews, mainly considering two factors: safety and no cockroaches. The hotel's location is excellent, quite close to MOA, and you can see Manila Bay from the room, though it unfortunately rained every day during our stay. There's a McDonald's, convenience stores, and restaurants nearby, and the area feels a lot like Chinatown, which made us feel much safer. With security guards stationed at all four corners of the hotel, we felt comfortable venturing out for dinner in the evenings. It was very clean and quiet, with absolutely no cockroaches. Getting around with Grab was also very convenient. Next door to the hotel is a Chinese-owned shop offering nail services, massages, beauty treatments, and hair styling – they have a wide range of services, reasonable prices, and it's very clean and relaxing. Highly recommend! The front desk service was excellent; they were responsive to all our issues. There's also a complimentary motorbike shuttle service that you can book, which was incredibly helpful. I really, really recommend this place.

This hotel is located by the river with a fantastic panoramic view. I'd recommend booking a room with a balcony – it's super comfy! There are security guards patrolling the entrance from morning till night, so it feels very safe. As a solo female traveler, I felt completely at ease. The front desk staff were incredibly responsive to all my requests. The hotel is also quite close to the beach, perfect for an evening stroll to cool off. There are plenty of snacks available too, which makes it extra delightful.
