ABBEY:   We often drive past the Crowne Plaza Hotel on our way to the airport or Jewel, and I've always been curious about what it's like to stay there. So, when my sibling came to visit, we took the opportunity to check it out.   Our check-in experience was smooth, even with a bit of a queue. As soon as we entered our room, we were welcomed by a cozy office space, followed by a comfortable bed. The room also featured a large TV with plenty of channels to keep us entertained and a small dining area for a quick meal. One of the standout features of the room was the bathroom. It includes a shower, toilet, and a bathtub with a unique view overlooking the airport terminal, allowing you to watch the air traffic. While the view was fantastic, we did find that the Jewel wing, where our room was located, felt a bit too far from the lobby, pool, and restaurant. It gave off a slightly isolated vibe, which might not be for everyone.  Overall, it was a memorable stay, especially with...

ABBEY:   Booking a room at Marina Bay Sands (MBS) through their app wasn't as smooth as I’d hoped. I ran into some issues securing rooms for my preferred dates, so I decided to reach out to their customer service. That’s when Natasha stepped in. With my membership ID in hand, she not only helped me lock in two rooms but also managed to secure some discounts for me—talk about a win! Fast forward to three days before our stay, I received an email from the MBS Premium Service Team. They asked me to fill out the guest details and offered a personalized check-in service. I initially thought this was just part of their standard process, but it turned out to be much more. Upon our arrival at the hotel, we were greeted by long check-in queues. That’s when I remembered the Premium Service Team. A quick call later, and David—our knight in a blue suit—arrived to save the day. Not only did we get a special lane, but we also got an in-room check-in. How cool is that? When we finally made it to ...

ABBEY:   Our first visit to Legoland was memorable, but due to budget constraints, we only managed to explore the theme and water parks. However, 2024 brought a new experience as we finally got the chance to stay at the Legoland Hotel, and not just any room—we booked the Kingdom Themed Suite. To our delight, even though check-in was officially at 4 PM, we were able to settle into our suite as early as 9 AM. From the moment we stepped into the disco elevator, which plays "Everything is Awesome," we knew we were in for a treat. The fun continued as we walked through the 2-car lane hallway leading to our room, where I couldn't help but feel like royalty in a castle. Our suite was massive, with a spacious living room that seamlessly connected to the dining area. It boasted a master bedroom, two bunk beds, and two bathrooms, offering plenty of space for everyone. The view of the theme park from our window was simply breathtaking. One of the highlights was watching my nephew so...

ABBEY:  For our staycation before heading to Bulacan, we chose to spend a night at Ibis Styles Araneta City in Cubao. From the moment we entered the hotel, we were welcomed by a giant glove sculpture in the lobby, which added a playful touch to our arrival. Check-in was a breeze—just a couple of minutes, and we were on our way to our room. The room was immaculate, exuding a cozy ambiance that made us feel instantly relaxed and ready to unwind. The fragrant toiletries added a touch of luxury, and I took full advantage of the hot shower, letting the warm water wash away the day’s fatigue. One of the perks of staying at Ibis Styles is its direct connection to the nearby malls. We couldn't resist exploring, so we strolled through the shops and grabbed some snacks at Manam. The place was bustling, so for dinner, we opted for a KFC takeaway, bringing our meal back to the comfort of our room. As we settled in, we tried to catch a bit of the Formula 1 Grand Prix, but the cozy bed quickly l...
