Horizon Club--A Hit

Negative Reviews
negative:
Parking Space Limited
In a city such as Manila that is notorious for its traffic, chances are travelers just want somewhere to park their car when they get to the hotel. There have been a few occasions where guests have noticed the lack of parking spots as well as overwhelmed valet attendants.
negative:
Long Lines During Holidays
When occupancy is high, especially during holidays such as Easter weekend, several guests have noted that the lines to check in can be long with a 30-minute-plus wait. So keep that in mind when booking during prime travel season.
negative:
Falls Short on a Few Details
There have been instances where guests were not keen on a few shortcomings such as instant coffee instead of brewed, musty odors and unclean sheets. However, the management here is highly responsive and tend to address such problems right away like giving someone a room change.
