The rooms are comfy enough, and the A/C, though box type, is not too noisy. Breakfast is OK, and airport pickups are cheaper than a taxi. But... P2800 for the cheapest room is daylight robbery, and you even have to pay P350 extra per night for a fridge. You don't get hand towels, only bath towels. There's no room safe. And both TV (Sky) and wifi (PLDT) are absolutely awful. The TV channels keep breaking up and are almost unwatchable, and the wifi is extremely slow and keeps dropping out completely for minutes at a time. If you stay at this hotel you will end up using your mobile data just to avoid being driven mad by connection dropouts. The in-house wifi won't even load Wikipedia. What is it about Gensan hotels that stops them providing usable wifi? The Royale Hotel wifi is terrible, the Greenleaf wifi is terrible, the Grand Summit wifi is terrible. The only (just about) usable wifi is at the Microtel (which has awful breakfasts and is also seriously overpriced). I come to Gensan several times a year, and now I just resign myself to using massive amounts of mobile data every time I come. Gensan hotels, you are holding your city back.

I was put up in this hotel by Cebu Pacific airline because they cancelled my flight from GenSan to Manila. It was only for one night. I got a superior room with dinner and breakfast thrown in too. Very nice swordfish and mixed vegetables chow mein was my dinner. I enjoyed it so much that the chef prepared it for my breakfast the next morning and packed it up nicely for me along with a fresh fruit salad dessert. I took it with me and ate it at the airport whilst waiting for the morning flight to Manila. Kudos to Cebu Pacific for putting me up in this hotel free of charge. And special thanks to the chef for looking after me too. The area around the hotel although busy with traffic, seemrd well looked after.
