Oracle Hotel and Residences

Located nearby Katipunan metro station, just across Ateneo de Manila University campus, this facility, which is essentially a student dormitory, offers clean and safe accommodation with simple breakfast. Staff is helpful and courteous. Complimentary wifi and bottled water were provided. Fastfood restaurants, and convenience stores are nearby. Could be a good choice for solo travelers for a few nights wo are doing business in this area.

I booked a "Standard double or twin room". To my surprise, the room did not have a window. Usually on booking.com windowless rooms are clearly marketed as "economy room with no window". On top of this, the ventilator on the AC was extremely noisy. It was impossible to sleep while it was in operation. Bugs showed up more than once. Wifi connection was dropped in every 5 minutes. For half the price they charged I would say "you get what you pay for". But this was really overpriced for a windowless hole. Travelers should make certain in advance whether their room will have a window. Couples and families, or those staying for longer should look for alternate accommodation closer to downtown Manila. This place is not for everyone.
