Property is well located with some nice restaurants walking distance. Nice little touches like free coffee at reception. Not to like - very noisy, especially if located on the ground floor. No windows and no housekeeping (available at an extra cost) Check in is labouriius and the staff not awfully helpful. Received a message after checking out advising there was a make up stain on the pillow - which is quite normal and doesn't exactly warrant a warning advising an extra cost could be incurred.... I wouldn't stay here again. Especially because other nice enough properties seemed to be available at walking distance.
Botanica Manila by Housy Host was a little hotel that made you feel at home. The staff was very attentive, room was big enough for three people and beds very confortable. I really recommend this place.
The property and staff were excellent, and the location was very convenient with everything nearby. The only downside was that the door lacked a peephole, so to see who was knocking, one would have to either open the door or look through the windows.
Great place to stay in a nice quiet street, but a very easy short walking distance to restaurants and cafes. Easy walk to Metro station and El Poblado.
Rooms were very nice, spacious and clean. Greta value.
The best place i could’ve stayed in Colombia !!! It was very safe and cozy. The rooms are exactly like the pictures. The food was amazing nearby at the restaurants. I will forever stay here
The room was cozy, the kitchen is fully equipped, the staff is very friendly and professional. The toilet room should have a vent, and more light at the sinks, other than that everything was excellent. It is ashamed they do not have elevator, that will make it perfect.
This was a cute tiny room with a huge bed clean with no frills. I traveled alone so it worked for
Me. Down side was it rained a lot and I had to mostly stay inside. The staff were all very nice and accommodating. Started to see few tiny ants my last day guess they were in from the rain too lol. It’s a very hilly city but definitely walkable daytime. I used uber at night for safety. I had an early flight and the desk gentleman ordered me a taxi that was very prompt and kind. For a quick trip an inexpensive place go here.
It was a nice boutique hotel and great for the value! Just make sure you stay in rooms in the back if you are a light sleeper since it stands on a semi busy road!

FRIENDLY STAFF
The hotel is in a perfect location... a few minutes of walking to the heart of the city. All of the hotel employees are amazing. Very friendly and professional staff. They will go above and beyond for the visitors. You can't beat the price for the service and the quality you will receive. Bathroom and shower are very clean with hot and good pressure water. Beds are comfortable. I stayed in 2 separate rooms due to my cancelation on another location and they were extremely helpful to find a solution in the last minute because i was arriving after midnight. I want to thank to the entire staff for their beautiful smiles and professionalism. The price is perfect too for the service and the location. You will not regret to stay in this hotel.
