Overview

The OFW Hotel Manila is a budget-friendly option for travellers looking for a place to rest before or after their flight. Reviews highlight the friendliness of the staff, with several guests noting the helpful and accommodating nature of the hotel staff. However, several reviewers caution that this accommodation is not a hotel in the traditional sense but more like a collection of rooms in a building with some significant drawbacks; including the location, which is described as sketchy and unsafe, with limited nearby amenities. The building itself is noted as being dated and in need of repair. Several reports of uncleanliness, such as mold and insects, have been noted. Transportation to and from the airport may also be challenging for guests.

Wasn't sure it's a real hotel. rooms in an office building about 17th floor up.. very sketchy area.. but get transportation there and you're ok inside. But it was clean, people were nice working there and they got me back to the airport. Only purpose for this place would be to sleep for a bit before you need to get to Terminal 1. You would never wanna go walking around this neighborhood.

This is easy to explain, Right outside the Manilla airport is a very difficult area for the un- initiated. Although the owners of this high rise have attempted to create a safe atmosphere, it is very hard to get a taxi in there. However, the adventurous sort can have a high rise with a view for very very cheap. Be prepared to know how to get in there as the lane right next to the highway that serves this hotel is an auxiliary road that is essentially a very rough area that is common outside the airport. Have a plan to get in there and you will stay in a high rise.

Didn’t expect luxury for the price but the description is a complete lie. Advertised as free pick up drop off from / to airport we paid both ways. Advertised as bay view room lol got a locked tinted window. Not an hotel at all it’s a flat with 3 rooms in a dilapidated building surrounded by slums and a motorway. Unsafe noisy and filthy. Family looking after the rooms live behind a curtain in the hallway. Mould everywhere in bathroom. Saw a mouse in the corridor. Only good thing the air conditioning worked well and the daughter was friendly

I dont even know from were to start! we choose this apartment because we wanted something just next to the airport and we choose this even being a bit more expensive then the other because they offered free shuttle. well... we wait more then 30 min and we just decided to get a taxi... it happens this is not a proper hotel... it seems they have just some rooms in a building so you dont have like a real reception... the room was absolutely terrible! what to say about cleanness when you get in the bathroom and is a cockroach walking around the bath.... in the announce it says powerful shower with hot water... this dosent look powerful and after 5 min of water running still not hot water... the room was extremely noisy since faces a very busy avenue (the pic was at 5am!). as well the room faces a casino and all the lights came directly in your eyes... the room had just the thing yellow curtain... we manage to hang the stripe fabric we found in the cupboard to try to stop the light... we just wanted to have some rest before our long trip back to switzerland and we probably would have had more rest staying overnight in the airport. we trusted the reviews, photos and description in hotels.com and we were very disappointed how different was the reality... we never had this before.

Nice owners, but this isn't an actual hotel. It's in an old building, on the 17th floor. A renovated office building partially turned into a "hotel". The hotel is not easy to find. It took our taxi an hour to get there from the airport. Locals there have not heard of this hotel and couldnt tell us where it was. There are no restaurants near it. Not really an ideal place to stay.
