Sweeties lives fairly close to USEM but she will have to get up VERY early in the morning and catch a jeepney from here to there them MRT/LRT, jeepney. To save her the hassle, where is a good hotel close by USEM where she can stay for the evening before her interview?

Keep in mind, she will likely be alone so safety is an issue as well as convenience.

Thank you

I stayed at the Best Western La Corona Hotel. It is just two blocks away from the USEM, just a walking distance. The hotel is good in terms of safety, cleanliness, comfort and it has reasonable price.

Thank you all for the very good answers. I am at the moment waiting for a response from Sweetie to see what she thinks of the idea. Also if she arrives promptly at 7am and check out time is 12 noon will she have time to get back to the hotel to check out and get her stuff and cell phone?

Again, Thank you

I advise the La Corona hotel attendants to get my bags out in the room if ever I didn't get back after check out time (course after securing my things done packing before I left). You can get the things after in the lobby counter when you get back.

Good luck!

I stayed at Mabuhay Manor in Pasay then hired their service car. Kinda' expensive but it saves me from the hassles.

Mabuhay Manor- 2,800 for 2 person (could be cheaper when single person only) Check out time is 2 pm.

Service Car for 250 pesos. I reccommend this for those people who are coming from the province. Breakfast is free but starts at 6 am.

Or..you can get cheaper hotel that has ISO certification like Victoria court in Cuneta Pasay, overnight stay there as far as I can remember is 1,200.
