2205 Suites

I'm probably being a bit too hard on my rating, especially as there doesn't appear to be much else in the area. The bed was comfortable and the room was large and clean. They have a kitchenet area so you could cook your own food if you wanted. They don't have a restaurant on site so you're asked to order your breakfast when you arrive. The breakfast was delivered at the duly appointed time to our room but it was very disappointing. It tasted as if it had been cooked three hours before. They also don't trust the guests, so we were given a plastic fork and spoon which were hopeless when trying to cut the bacon or fish and it was almost comical trying to butter the toast with the spoon. The bathroom is in desperate need of a makeover. The shower sprays everywhere and there is basically no hot water (luke warm would be a compliment). The design on the showerer makes it impossible for the cleaners to clean down the side and it looked pretty disgusting. The towels are pretty old and you don't feel dry after you've used them. Whilst the room has a balcony, there is a large gap around the door so insects can easily get into the room. Probably the worst night's sleep at a hotel I've had in a long time despite the bed being comfortable. If you need to stay a night in Lucena, then this might work if you come with very low expectations.

Our family spent a night at 2205 Suites when we were heading from Tobaco City to Villa Escudero. We checked in very late at 11 PM at night and the check in process included picking one of the three rice dishes for breakfast. They also offer welcome drink like a 5-star hotel but the options are limited to black tea and coffee. It is my recommendation for the hotel to cut this offer because it really does not match the segment of this hotel and offers no additional value to the customer. Leaving some tea bags and coffee in the hotel room would be sufficient. The room is spacious with pretty new kitchen with appliance. The bathroom is also structured nicely; the standing shower is separated from the toilet and water from shower won't spill to the toilet area. The only complaint is that the water is lurk warm (or cold in my standard). Given that it was almost mid-night, I didn't bother to call the front desk. Just took a quick shower and slept for the night. Our room faced an open field and I truly enjoyed the view of looking at the river, coconut trees, and the playing cows. It is a hotel in a countryside and that is what I want.
