GV Tower Hotel

I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights and paid 6K. I don't know if that is the regular price or probably because it it Sinulog. My thoughts here are purely based on what I was told by the receptionist-manager-I am not sure of her position and on my own observations.

While the receptionist-manager-I am not sure of her position was smiling all the time and feels accommodating, she made us nervous when she said we didn't have a reservation and they don't have an online booking, later did she realized that they have a partnership with an agency. 

She said that the room was good for 4 pax. It wasn't. Maybe 4 people will fit in if they sleep vertically. 

They don't have curtains,  they have blinds. There are finger prints in their glass window which I don't think have been cleaned for months.

The comfort room wasn't that clean. They only give 1 tiny round soap for my 3 days stay and 1 roll of toilet paper. The faucet in the shower area was broken. 

There was no chair. There was a table fixed on the wall and a small side table.

The way how the double sizes bed frame was positioned is not convenient if you want to watch TV. Again, maybe vertically. 

The ground floor and basement parking which shows "For GV Tower Hotel Guests" aren't for guests,  the guards mentioned.  that these are for building store owners and managers of the school nearby (i forgor what it is). They asked us to park on the side street but side street parking is technically not allowed in Cebu and there are tow away zones. So we had to park our car in another hotel where my friends are parked and get a cab to go back to GV. 

We had a dinner at their restaurant on the 7th floor. The food they served wasn't that hot so I personally didn't enjoy it. When we got the bill, they had to ask what we ordered again so they can calculate. I had to tell them that the mango shake I ordered wasn't served.

Overall, I am very frustrated with the hotel and does not ever meet my expectations.  I will never recommend this hotel to any of my friends. If there's one thing though,  location is at the heart of the city and is accessible to everyone,  others say though that placr is unsafe sometimes.

Be Grateful

Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift. When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trails to make you strong, enough sorrow to k...
If you were presented with an opportunity to do something great - to really leave a mark on the world and make a difference, would you take it? I think that most people would, I know that I certainly would. 🙌 Perhaps the reason that most people don’t end up doing this is because of the personal price that needs to be paid. One thing I’ve certainly learned for myself is that if I want to be able to influence other people and things around me I first need to be able to influence myself. If I want to create change around me, I need to start with myself. I can’t take my same old self into a bright new future - I’ll only darken it. 💥 The good news is that if I put proper focus on changing myself, on growing and learning and developing my skills - my potential will be unlimited. 💪 **** picture below is my inspiration. It's a dream come true to enter The Asian Institute of Management as a student. This happened in 2018 when I was enrolled by my prior company to an Executive Development...
