Hop Inn Hotel: Our seaview room experience

Three months ago, I won a free staycation from Traveloka from their #TravisTravels and #CrazyEasyTravels promo at UP Town Center and just this August, we availed it! Let me share to you our experience in Hop Inn Hotel Ermita.

Why I chose Hop Inn Hotel Ermita branch? What caught my attention is their Seaview Room. From there, you can have a beautiful sunset view from Manila Bay.

No sunset view as we had a bad weather during our stay 🙁

7/11 is just beside the hotel so you don’t need to worry if you’re hungry or need something. It has also a cafe located at the other side of the hotel. You can have your breakfast there as the hotel doesn’t offer breakfast meals.

Upon checking in, they will ask you for a valid ID for confirmation. After that, they will give you 2 key cards (which I didn’t have a pic). One is for your personal key and the other one is for you to left in your room.

The room is simple. Since it’s a hotel, expect the room to be small. But if you’re there just to sleep and rest, it’s good to go. There is space for luggage in case you came from the airport.

The room is clean and bright. Actually, the hotel itself is covered with blue and yellow color that makes it really bright.

AMENITIES – 

Since it is a hotel, don’t expect any kitchenware or tools from them.

The room has bed, safety vault, hangers for clothes, work station, cable TV, fast internet connection. I had a bit problem regarding with their WiFi. It seems not working in all mobile phones. I can’t connect my other phone (Huawei) in their WiFi though the other one (Samsung) works well. I don’t know what’s the problem with that. But anyway, it’s okay. I just used my other phone for browsing the whole time of our stay there.

For the cr, they have a hair dryer, clean towels, tissue, and soap & shampoo.

If you need anything, just call their staff at the lobby. They have 24-hour front desk.
