"First off, I previously reviewed this hotel but did not get the chance to talk about what I didn't like about this hotel. I thought Expedia's survey would have a box for likes and then one for dislikes, like other surveys, instead of one box for all; should have paid better attention. Anyway, the good: the location of this hotel is in a nice area of Metro Manila, in walking distance to a couple of Malls with money exchange options, one being the Greenbelt Mall, a bus depot, several massage places, one being a Thai Asian place about a 15-20 minute walk from the hotel which was outstanding, a great breakfast, a variety of restaurants nearby, and friendly staff. The BAD: the check-in process was painfully slow, especially for travelers who have been traveling for hours; I mean it was inconvenient enough for me to reconsider staying at this hotel again! Management really needs to figure this issue out and find a more expedient, efficient process. I have stayed at lower end hotels in Pasay with a more efficient check-in process than the Dusit. And the advertised "free" parking is on a first come first serve basis, which they don't bother to mention until you leave the garage and return later to find the garage "full" and I reserved "4" rooms and only needed one parking space. They did allow us to use valet parking with no charge, but this inconvenience, due to some conference, was unacceptable! Therefore, I will likely seek other hotel options on my next trip."
