Cute and simple stay right by the SM Pier! This was a nice place to stay with a few friends.
Pros: The room was clean and simple. It felt nice and relaxed, definitely more chill than some of the other places you can stay nearby. Check-in was easy and staff was nice. You are incredibly close to the pier and beach. The area is safe and all the entrances to the rooms are inside a gated terrace. Walking distance to great restaurants, bars, and shopping.
Cons: Parking options are limited close by. If their lot fills up (it did when we were there) then you have to park across the street, which also fills up because it shares a lot with a bar. Then you have to parking in one of the downtown SM parking lots. Not the end of the world, but it is about a 5-10 minute walk to them. And no matter what it costs to park.
Also, the bathroom was a little dingy and looked like it has been hastily repaired in the past. It wasn't the worst, but I expected it to be a little nicer, considering the price to stay.
