The breakfast buffet was a little underwhelming but Ray came through for my wife who has a lot of food allergies. he went out of his way to make her breakfast delicious and satisfying. The location is really good, close to metro train station and lots of jeepny's close by if you want to go a short distance. Our room did not have any windows which was a suprise but it seemed clean enough and the shower got hot water quick! I would stay here again if I needed to be in this part of Manila.

The staff were very friendly and always greeting us with a smile. The breakfast was a great addition to our stay because the food was good and unlimited and the pool though a little on the smaller side made up for it with clean and clear water which was nice and refreshing after a hot day in the sun.

The best hotel near Tondo
Excellent buffet breakfast, the kids love the kiddie pool. It is close to Deca Mall where the kids go everyday to the playhouse and come back to a quiet, comfortable, secure hotel. Hotel starr is easy to work with.

The street around the hotel was fairly run down but
an advantage was the direct entry to the train station from
the mezzanine of the hotel. Nice room, quiet airconditioning.

Fantastic value, nice pool and sauna. Rooms were good. Mattress a bit tough but okay. Breakfast in the morning was nice. Access to the LRT railway station directly from the platform. Hot water shower. Enjoyed my few nights here and would return. Staff professional and courteous.
