[QUOTE=GoodEnough;2761059]I agree that, having stayed at ABC perhaps 20 times, there's no other place quite like it. The question is, as always, whether it represents value for money. I finally came to the conclusion that it doesn't given what I think is the mediocre quality of the food and the poverty of the wine list. In my view, considering international standards, it's a decent hotel that would rate maybe 4 stars. However, by Angeles standards, it's worth 5+ stars. I also agree that the service is excellent, friendly and efficient, though I don't find the rooms particularly attractive. In the end, it all comes down to whether a given individual believes that it's worth the price. I no longer feel it is, but that's just a personal opinion.
GE.[/QUOTE]Currently, and for a while it has not been worth the cost. Back a few / many years it WAS simply because it was ABC. The reason for this was because one of the first few questions any girl in the bar is going to ask you is "where are you staying? And this gave you an enormous amount of leverage. Trust me it was worth the cost. Unfortunately that was then, and the now is...well

However, the cost / benefit ratio has changed, at least for me.
GE.

GE.[/QUOTE]Some will disagree but I always felt the new tower destroyed the lower areas and turned them into a dark and dingy cave.
The rooms, like the bars in general, were great when I was new but after a while the novelty wears off.
I can certainly understand why some have a great time though. Credit where credit is due:. Aqua can be a good time.
I wanted to wake this up a bit. Just FYI, if you decide to book at SureStay plus in Angeles and you have multiple ladies visiting. Please make sure the staff don't hand the log book to the girl for completion. I have experienced this issue already. One of the girls called me out for having multiple women in my room after reading the log book. SMH 🤦127998;8205;9794;65039;.
Of course, it took a whole 20 minutes to explain to staff about what happened. I couldn't believe this was their process all this time! Anyone else experienced this issue?!

You can't stop the girl from filling out the log book; she is the first one the guard hands the ink pen to and points to the exact spot to fill in her name and such. She sometimes has to actually sign it.

This is AC having multiple ladies is the norm. Registering girls is the norm.

Of course, if she wants to make a scene, then they are free to leave and it would take 8. 6 seconds to find a willing replacement. 😜.
I like to think I'm a nice guy but I'm not paying to be told what I can and can't do.
Enjoy. G.

There is a quiet hotel popular with Koreans in Mountain View, Batangas St, the road after the trike boys. It is beside the small Christian Church. I had a contact for it but cannot find it. Anyone know? \It is not Dennison Hotel which is on Pampanga St, the next one to Batangas.

Sailor Jack is going to try to get these guards on retainer. But Sailor Jack will institute mandatory girl photos at check in as well. Aye!

I had a contact for it but cannot find it. Anyone know? \It is not Dennison Hotel which is on Pampanga St, the next one to Batangas.[/QUOTE]I got this sorted by contacting helpful businesses in Pampanga and then watching videos, one of which included the hotel and its details. The interesting thing is, though the church and laundries etc were marked in on the maps, the hotel was shown as a vacant lot in all of them. There is talk here of Angeles going upmarket but the place is a dump. That can be seen with the intense commuter traffic which shows that Fields is not the centre of Angeles, never mind the world. Many hotels, eateries, dentists etc have gone out of business and others are trying their luck.
One of the things I noticed was that school girls on their breaks would window shop in Johnnys, a low budget utilities shop. Not exactly Maceys or Oxford St but hard to compete against price wise. SE Asia is a tough place where a lot of folk are trying to get ahead.
Way up Perimeter Road, there is an obnoxious Yanks who runs Danielas, a low cost hotel which moved a few hundred yard around Covid time I guess folk like him are stuck there, just as others end up elsewhere. There is money to be made there with hard graft, if one doesn't mind the pollution. Go check out all the family houses in Mountain View, all fenced in with iron grills.
Upping the price is a favourite tactic in SE Asia and it must make some kind of economic sense. I guess those who run the bars are not Bill Gates types and many of the sort who ran Margaritas will just face away. There is a considerable foreign clientele living there full time on limited budgets but, as they die off, horny Koreans will move in until low budget airlines ferry them in elsewhere.
For me, it is just a place to rent LBFMs, same as my local butcher store is a place to buy meat, as are the supermarkets. I don't need the Korean gloss, just some BB CIM meat.
Are you guys still in here arguing about this place? LOL! I had a room [B]exactly[/B] like the one featured in this video. I consider it to be a 4-star accommodation (and it was worth it too):
