A must-stay hotel in Davao for a unique experience!

In the charming city of Davao, I was fortunate to choose the Anclote Hotel as my accommodation. The hotel is located next to the Davao Upside Down House Museum, making it easy for me to visit the city's attractions. Here's a detailed review of my stay. First Impressions: A Blend of Classic and Modern Upon arriving at the Anclote Hotel, I was greeted by a building with an old-fashioned charm, as if I had traveled back in time. Although the exterior looked a bit dated, the interior was well-maintained, with a decor that combined classic and modern elements, creating a comfortable and cozy atmosphere. Facilities and Services: Thoughtful and Attentive The hotel offers a range of thoughtful facilities and services that made my stay convenient and comfortable. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel, and the free parking is a great convenience for self-driving guests. The hotel also has a restaurant, luggage storage, laundry service, ironing service, and more to meet my needs during my trip. The 24-hour front desk service is particularly noteworthy. Whether I needed help with travel routes or other assistance, the front desk staff were always friendly and patient, answering all my questions. This thoughtful care made me feel at home. Room Experience: Comfortable and Quiet My room was spacious and bright, with a reasonable layout. The air conditioning was just right, and the TV had a wide range of channels. The soft and comfortable bed ensured a good night's sleep. The bathroom was clean and tidy, with a choice of bathtub or shower for relaxation. The room was also equipped with a kettle, hairdryer, conditioner, and other daily necessities, as well as in-room Wi-Fi and a smoke alarm for safety. Dining and Leisure: A Double Delight Although I didn't try the hotel's restaurant (I heard there are many good restaurants nearby), the room service was very convenient. For those who want to enjoy a quiet meal in their room, this is a great option. There are also several local restaurants nearby, such as Jack's Ridge and Blue Post Boiling Crabs and Shrimps, where I could taste authentic Davao cuisine. For leisure, the hotel has a lounge area and various facilities for guests to use. Whether you want to work out in the gym or relax by the pool, there's something for everyone.
