Unprofessional
The hotel failed to advertise or wven advise me BEFORE my arrival that there was no electricity, elevator, breakfast, wifi or internet. i never recieved any notice. no email, call or text. It was only when i arrived qnd was offered a refund if i didnt want to stay. Note to manager: Notify guests BEFORE BOOKING AND PAYMENT, OR AT LEAST GIVE THEM THE COURTESY OF A PHONE CALL. not just wait until they arrive to inform them. no aircon or electricity for most of the day. at least you should have offered a partial refund. INSTEAD ibwas charged full price. The staff was doing the best they could. Its the managers fault. Ive stayed there before with good experience. But this is likely my last stay due to poor service.

The reception staff where great, the room was on the small side, but was ok, however the house keeping staff left alot to be desired, most of the time it was non-existent, took away the towels and forgot to replace them , there is a small cafe on site was pleasant for a cup of tea and a small meal, so if this hotel, had better house keeping it would be a big improvement

The location as great since it was near popular malls which were the SM Cebu and Ayala Center. The staff were very courteous and accommodating. The connecting rooms were perfect for groups of 8-10 people. I wished they had a hair dryer and at least 1 bedside table. They provided lockers in one of the bigger rooms which we didn't use.

Staff were very accommodating and helpful. They do their way to make your stay comfortably. It was sad that the room they assigned to us was very smelly/foul odor coming from the sink. First I thought it was gas but later I was like rotten stuff coming from the sink. When we entered the roo the first time it seem the have been vacant for a long time. But when I complained and demanded to be moved to another room, they fixed the problem.

Mabolo Royal Hotel
After a PHP 300 taxi from the airport the welcome at the hotel was good, however, the wrong room was given (two singles and not the queen asked for) and it took to the following day to be resolved. Aside from that slight problem the rooms were comfortable and clean, if needing a little TLC. The wifi was very good and quick enough to do most things with ease. The breakfast that was provided was good, a good selection of options was available and it was easy to swap out items (i.e scrabbled egg instead of fried egg) and didn't take long to arrive. The hotel itself was only a very short walk to SM Mall Cebu and the facilities that a mall brings. There was a very nice cafe within the hotel complex, and all the food they provided was good for two people. My wife and I enjoyed eating in this cafe. Overall the hotel was clean and comfortable, at a good price and with friendly staff.

This was a welcoming hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The bathroom is rather small where door opens on to the toilet. Not good ifvtoilet in use and partner want to enter also. Breakfast was included and provided a good selection to choose from. I stayed their twice and would stay there again

Pick a different hotel.
There are several issues with this hotel. The first being the condition of the room. The trash can was filthy, the door to the CR was stuck leaving me unable to enter it until maintenance came. One of the light bulbs went into strobe during the night. Breakfast service is very slow, and the staff never seems happy to see you. The room also had no coffee cups or coffee as most hotels do. The bedroom had no remote for the TV. There are just too many hotels in this price range that offer so much more.

The room was fine though the space was so cute, aircon functioned well..in fact, it was so cold, Wi-Fi was excellent and the foods were very affordable, not the usual hotel price. The only bad in this hotel was their service, the hotel staff were toooo slow and cannot follow simple request real-time.
