Facilities felt new and clean, especially the common area and the rooms. There’s free water and a small fridge to put your things, but not for cooking. Common area is very spacious and comfortable with lots of sitting options and outlets. The ac world great there and the Wi-Fi is strong in general. I think it can be great for digital nomads. There’s soap and shampoo dispensers in the showers. Smart locks on the doors. Location is relatively close to Ayala mall and SM which was exactly what I wanted.
