Calapan Holidays from AU$909

Ughhh weird place. I’m not even sure what the place is called or what is the actual address (it certainly wasn’t the two different addresses we found online, although close). Only reason we found it is because of the exterior picture on the map. Whoever rated it as “excellent” must own the joint. TV didn’t work, wifi didn’t work, no signage, weak air con, and no airport shuttle - despite what the booking info described. I’d be nicer and leave it that, but the staff seemed annoyed by me as well (except for the gentleman who showed us to our room).

The room was nice enough but a bit shabby and not overly clean. The communication from the management team was excellent and Mel was very accommodating. We didn’t really research the area and wish we had as it wasn’t the best, when you can rent rooms by the hour around the corner that gives you a pretty good indication! Overall experience was ok but I wouldn’t stay again.

Birch tower is a great place to stay if you want convenience. There are multiple hosts offering stays in the same building so keep that in mind. I can tell you this host takes hospitality to heart and is very accommodating to guest needs. She has multiple units, mine had a great view of the city skyline!

Good breakfast, the staff was amazing
