Yeah so many rules here in Philippines that don't make any sense to me either not just at hotels but airports as well. That's just how the Philippines works in some ways. Nice hotel tour 👍👍😎😎🆒🆒

Many rules because they want to discouraged undisciplined, unruly people.

I'd go there just for the pool and outdoor showers...The food looks GREAT! Being so close to the airport, they've done an amazing job with the layout, dining, club view, and what looks like a garden on roof of the gym? Upscaled spacious room with a view of the flight deck. This place is fit for the King's Regiment.

Great review thank you. Just curious what type of security is at the door? If you want to bring a friend you just met up to your room will they say no to that? Maybe luxury and comfort is not worth the drama.

There is security at the door just making sure you don’t have any weapons only checking for that

Watching from Agoura hills Calif thanks for sharing

The hotel complex got a history of some kind of crime scene a guy with a gun enter the hotel casino i believe and try to engage with the hotel employee and its visitor specially at the casino. So thats why they are kind of strict about it. And the hotel was rename/ rebrand to remove its negative past

The terrorist incident happened at the neighboring Marriott Hotel. This hotel just opened a few years ago. But yeah Sheraton is under Marriott and they’re all in the same compound so i guess security is absolutely beefed up.

@@peterhuang1431 Yes I do understand that. But even then they should still be able to tell the difference between a Hotel Guest clearly from a foreign country opposed to someone who is a likely a desperate person off the streets. Can we agree on that?

@@IslandHopperTVHotels thats true and I agree. Although I can say as a foreigner since I look Chinese, many security is less strict on me like me going into a mall, they kinda just " watchever " search me and scan me while other filipino, they take their time sometimes. But of course, everyone is different in terms on how they view things. Sometimes I don't like it myself but end result is they're just doing their job and arent there to single us out. I'm also sure if their management or boss isnt too strict on them like being less strict to foreigners, Im sure they would as well. Jobs are hard to find when it's over populated too so they have to take it serious to feed their family I guess. At elast thats how I view it. It's annoying but it is what it is. They arent purposly trying to get us

thats terminal 3 out the window

Yeah rules are important if people can't respect the rules of places they go to then peopl are free to leave. Casinos need to see a full view of your face upon entering for security purposes. Having elite membership status doesn't mean a member has the freedom to do whatever he/she wants. Memberahip only gives you special benefits to enjoy the amenities of the hotel but still bounded the hotel's rules and policies. Westerners are just too spoiled wanting toomuch freedom wherever they go. Though I agree with customer service issues but at the same time I understand that Filipinos are not that assertive. They quite shy when speaking to a foreign national. They make sure respect is maintained at all times.
