Air conditioning barely works, no hot water and rooms are dirty.

This hotel is weirdly frustrating because it has potential but doesn't perform up to par.

Stay here 3-4x/month and so far, the only improvement carried out is that they FINALLY provide a little cut on the toothpaste plastic tubes so I won't have to rip them off with my teeth.

I'd say OK - inspite of the shower that doesn't have a middle temperature, the maddening wifi, the aircon filters that need cleaning, the staff that only knows how to say hello sir but not hello ma'am and the guard that warned me that my car might get robbed, worse, stolen in the hotel parking lot if I don't bring my "valuable" items (peeking in the backseat while he was at it) -- errr... GUARD?

Thank God for the front desk manager Cindy who always manages to be convivial and appeasing, the stay ends up becoming decent.

Location is near Tomas Morato avenue and Timog Avenue where a lot of restaurants and bars are. It's also near St. Luke's Hospital, Quezon Memorial Circle and the University of the Philippines. Not much of a view inspite of the proximity to the aforementioned places but rooms spacious and clean with comfortable beds. Breakfast very basic - nothing special. Overall service needs a bit of a jolt.

It was my first time at Triplace Hotel in QC, I find the reception quite accommodating and respectful..

I wasn't able to connect thru their wifi, informed the reception and then there comes their I.T. personnel.. It was my fault that i can't connect because i havent asked for an account/password whatever you may call it.

nevertheless, they provide one and i spent the whole evening browsing the net.

I checked in recently and this is what I experienced.

(1) I could not get dinner because the kitchen staff walked out at 8pm to celebrate their own festive events.
(2) The WiFi did not work, and it took THREE telephone calls, and ONE hour later the lady turned up. She claimed its work, but failed to get my laptop to log in to their WiFi.
(3) Breakfast was in a nice room, with TWO plasma TVs, each showing different channels, and both were loud. We could not listen to either channel as they interfere with each other.
(4) Staff at breakfast were fairly good, but talking and chatting to each other most of the time. I suppose this is how Filipinos work when the boss is not around.
(5) Constant and loud construction noise, from 7am onwards.
