Western quality, cleanliness and professionalism

We live in Cebu City Philippines. I'm an American and, as you might expect, my standards are routinely not met by local Philippine establishments. In this case, however, I will say that the Waterfront hotel was on the highest western standard. From service to facilities to food, everything was the highest quality. The room was clean. Every common area was also spotless, which is one of those things you may not notice top of mind, but it affects your perception. Every corner of every small spot had clearly been cleaned that day. I also notice the staff was wearing clothing that was obviously cleaned that previous night or morning. This is not always the way in the Philippines, but Waterfront is an exception in a Third World country. So, if you're an expat or a person visiting from the west, THIS is your go to hotel in Cebu City. I even got a deal on Hotels.com. I should also mention that I've lived in the Philippines in a pretty upscale condo building in IT Park just 5 minutes from the hotel. My condo building had a 36 hour power outage for "maintenance", so my wife, 2 year old son and myself went to the Waterfront hotel. Other than refusing to let my 2 year old into the casino (which was more a joke than anything), it was a perfect stay. Thank you!

It's a little bit sad to see a good place going downhill. When we checked in we were told that there were no towels in our room, but that they would deliver some soon. By the next morning still no towels. We asked again and they did send some. The room is very cold, even with the aircon turned up to 35 (about 95 in Fahrenheit). You can turn the aircon off, then it gets hot. So your choices are cold or hot, no in between. But the breakfast buffet is still really good, so give them credit for that.

The property staff and five restaurants are all immaculate. The gym was far superior to any hotel gym I’ve ever stayed at. It included a full boxing rung and boxing bags. Then there was the Club on site. A younger crowd, but the music and the vibe was really kicking it. Across the street is the IT Business park with moles and shopping and everything else you would ever need. This location and set up was priceless.

503 very cold even with aircon off. Minibar fridge very noisy (probably needs replaced). Kept waking us up over and over every night of our stay. The pool waterfall is out of service - sad. Older hotel, but still okay; not worth the price, in our opinion. Maid and room service both excellent.
