The hotel has a compelling location just steps away from the university, making it very convenient for visitors. The rooms are spacious and clean, but the housekeeping service left much to be desired, often forgetting essentials like towels and toilet paper. Wi-Fi is strong in the lobby but nearly non-existent in the rooms, which is disappointing. Overall, while the value is decent given the proximity to the university, the lack of attention to service and amenities is concerning.

My stay at this hotel was quite disappointing due to several major issues. While the location was convenient, close to the train station and airport, the overall condition of the hotel was far from acceptable. The presence of insects in the room and the noise from nearby construction really took away from the experience. It felt more like a budget hostel than a hotel, though the Wi-Fi access was a slight redeeming quality.

I stayed in this hotel and found the location to be quite convenient, especially being close to De La Salle University and various dining options nearby. The rooms were decent, but the service left much to be desired, especially with some cleanliness issues. Overall, it's a budget-friendly option, but the experience varied significantly.

I had a rather disappointing experience at this hotel. On the plus side, the location near De La Salle University is convenient, and the rooms offer a nice view of the city. However, I encountered cleanliness issues and an underwhelming service that really detracted from my stay. The slow elevators and lack of Wi-Fi access in the rooms further added to my frustration.

The location of the hotel is its biggest selling point, being near restaurants and the DLSU campus. However, the stay wasn't very pleasant due to safety concerns, slow elevators, and outdated rooms. The cleanliness left something to be desired, making it hard to recommend this hotel overall.

This hotel is in a prime location, just a stone's throw from the university, which is its main selling point. While the rooms are spacious and clean, the overall upkeep and service leave much to be desired. Housekeeping was lacking, and I faced some issues with basic amenities during my stay. The price feels a bit high considering the condition of the facilities, but if you only care about being close to school, it might still work for you.

Rooms

The rooms were spacious and generally clean, but I found some issues with missing amenities and an older design. Rating: 7/10

Service

The housekeeping service was frustratingly slow and seemed inattentive, particularly regarding providing necessary items. Rating: 5/10

Location

It's incredibly convenient for anyone needing to access the university quickly, as it’s literally steps away from the campus entrance. Rating: 10/10

The facilities could definitely use an upgrade, looking older than their actual age, with issues like a malfunctioning TV and elevators that don't inspire confidence. Rating: 6/10

I had mixed feelings about my stay at Taft Tower Hotel. While the rooms were spacious and I appreciated the promptness of the staff when I requested supplies, the elevators were painfully slow and I experienced loud construction noise that often disturbed my peace. The location is pretty great since it's near De La Salle, but the overall cleanliness left much to be desired. It does have a few redeeming qualities, but they might not justify the price.
