Microtel Manila - Mall of Asia

Although new and conveniently located to the Mall of Asia and the Int'l Airport, this "chain" hotel has a long way to go to measure up to US parent Microtel quality. Rooms were rather barren, wood floors throughout, smallish bathrooms , thin walls freely allowed noise from halls and adjoining rooms. . Still some construction going on so this made for additional noise and clutter.Breakfast was ok. Biggest complaint was the wifi service. Slow, spotty and in despite the advertised claims, it is NOT free when accessed in the room --- only free in the lobby. To access it required long and cumbersome ID and password codes that only permitted 3 running hours of use at a time. So if you used it for 15 minutes and then left to outside appointments and returned , you had to go to the front desk and get a new 10 digit ID and 8 digits password. Crazy, backwards--- and not at all business friendly! Maybe these are growing pains--but for the moment it is too painful for my full recommendation.
