My first room was extremely loud as it was directly above a noisy alley with substantial motorcycle traffic. After some effort, with Expedia’s intervention, I was moved to a less noisy room. The street/alley is busy as there is a nearby staging area for motorcycle taxis. No breakfast, but the friendly staff will arrange food delivery to the hotel from a selection of restaurants. Recommend having hotel arrange transportation as Manila metered taxi drivers are notoriously incompetent and do not have digital map/gps. After convincing staff to change my room, I found them to be helpful and responsive. Very noisy area, but rooms are clean and it is not expensive. After further consideration, I would be inclined to try different hotel in the future with breakfast and less hectic location. At night, street/alley is not exactly safe or well lit which explains need for locked gate. The friendliness and helpfulness of certain of the hotel staff partially offsets aspects of my negative experience. The Riverside Inn has decent guest reviews on Expedia, higher than my rating so perhaps my 4 day stay was an aberration.
