Asia Novo Boutique Hotel - Cabuyao

There’s no elevator, and the smell wasn’t good. It was also really loud outside. The cleaners or room attendants were noisy and annoying, repeatedly trying the doorknob even though they knew someone was in the room.

The VIP room had enough space for six people, and it did have a window, which was a good thing because there was an odd smell, possibly from the building’s septic tank lacking a gas release pipe. The room itself is very worn and needs renovation. The tiles are dirty, patched badly, and vary in color and height. Even the linen and towel already had a brownish shade.

The staff were friendly, and the room was clean, with toiletries, cable TV, strong Wi-Fi, and good air conditioning. There’s no outlet for charging your devices, though. Other guests were drunk and noisy until around 11 at night. That may not have been the hotel’s fault, but they shouldn’t have allowed it either. It’s an okay place if you only need somewhere to sleep.

The staff were nice, and the air conditioning and Wi-Fi worked. That’s about all I can say in its favor. The bathroom was dirty, there was a rat in the hallway, and the walls had lots of ants or other bugs. The water smelled like sewer and stank up the room. It also left my skin really dry. It’s cheap, but it was so unclean that I’d never come back. I don’t understand the reviews calling it clean, and I’d rather stay somewhere clean than have nice staff.
