    Oo Top Isand Hotel, Top din ang presyo.

  • opinyonlangpo

    Price is okey but its better to hear first hand from people who stayed in the hotel. Stories like this can be deceiving and frustrating at the end.

  • Iggy Ramirez

    It only says the best in Asia. The best in Asia does not necessarily mean the best in the world. 

    Accolades are great but let us not inflate them to the point that we are giving our readers the wrong impression much more wrong information.

  • CmdrAdobo

    ganda ang bansa natin.

    pero mas okay pag walang rebelde at patay.

  • reader2323
