Would You Trust A Mamasan?
Hi Rubberyman,
I would suspect that the mamasan would be trying it on. Say a stupid number and see the reaction of the monger. Only the exceptionally naive or stupid newbie would take a mamasan at face value. 50 virgins. O. K. Is this verifiable? Who in their right would believe a mamasan who makes commission on bar fines, ladies drinks and more than likely selling the " cherry" of the cherry girl. Would you trust a real estate agent, used car salesman or a lawyer where you are living? Remember where you are. Would you put you wallet in your back pocket and go to sleep on a jeepney.
To Travel Spirit, don't be fooled by greedy mamasans in DollHouse. I am a member of some other boards which cover AC in depth. DollHouse generally has a bad name for scams and the like. Please do not be deceived by all the glitz and glamour. All that glitters is not gold. All the best, enjoy your time in P. I.
Check the price of the BF with management.
[QUOTE=Country Club]This might sound ridiculous. I am in AC now but I would like to know the going price for BF and standard tip. I BF a girl last night from Dollhouse for 1300p. That seemed right I guess and for the life of me when it came time for her to leave and tip time, I totally forgot from my last trip what was standard tip (I define standard as yes she was great in all aspects). I ended up giving her 1000p. Is that right? Please inform me and also any daytime activities going on now would be helpful, I've been out of the loop as of late due to a Filipina gf who has been hard to leave my side. Please do without the RTFF comments, a nice answer is appreciated. Cheers and anyone wanting to meet up in AC now give a shout![/QUOTE]Hi Country Club,
Check the price of the BF with management. Field Ave. prices may vary and could be different to Perimeter price. You tip according to the service, no hard or fast rules here. AC is basicilly a monger's paradise and daytime activities are few and far between. Unlike Thailand which has a lot going for it as far as the tourist things. Take it easy and take care...always.
ABC (Angeles Beach Club) Review
Just wanted to post my review of this hotel.
I booked a superior room at US$ 90. Except if you go for a splurge, this is already wholefully adequate: perfect bed, large shower and bathtub, sitting area, and small semi-private terrace to sit, connect to internet and eat your breakfast if you are too lazy to go to the restaurant.
I ate 2 dinners there, and food was perfect, although a bit heavy. The restaurant has taken over by the Azurro chef the day I left, I had a chat with him and he promised a new menu and some pasta. I hope the service will not change. Only bitter taste was the price of the breakfast fresh orange juice (PHP 150).
The pool looks great, but it is not the vast open space of the Oasis hotel - pool and jacuzzi are squeezed between the 2 hotel wings, with little sun exposure.
This hotel is serious in its finish: really soundproof walls and windows, all furniture of high quality and design, everything working, really good service, some boutique touches like the chill-out music, many TV channels including some XXX (good to educate those ignorant girls). Some may not like the flamboyant taste of the paintings and chairs, but my opinion is that this hotel is very well run and worth its money. I can only hope that they will maintain it properly, and not let everything crumble after 1 year. As for me, I already make my next bookings.
