Great location for a US Embassy appointment

The Southern Cross has a small, but homey bar inside that has a decent, economical pool table. If you are missing American cooking, the bar serves one of the best American breakfasts that I have had in a long time!

Aircon doesn't work. Reception doesn't answer calls. I had to go all the way down to the lobby just to ask for additional pillow which has an additional payment btw. Has hot shower but almost no water flowing. All appliances has loose sockets thay they'd just fall off when plugged in (lamp, ref, water heater, etc.). Very thin walls that I could even hear the other room as well as the hallway. Disappointing!

Nice staff but drab hotel

In my room items didn't work properly. The shower was in a fixed position firing straight over my head, the aircon didn't seem to cool at all, the room safe didn't lock. But the wifi was OK. The whole hotel is very drab and the nearby area run down. Hotel staff were good. The bar is convivial if you like talking with elderly Australians.

Séjour du 5 au 7 janvier 2019 au Southern cross H.

Hôtel calme, bien situé près de la baie de Manille. J y ai séjourné du 5 janvier au 7. Frigo, tv, lit confortable, grandes serviettes de bain blanches. Bouilloire. Le ventilateur était très bruyant.Et l ascenseur a eu un problème. Très bonne position géographique. Bar et restaurant en dessous. Donc, pratique pour une arrivée. Seven eleven à 2 pas.

Close to US Embassy: A little sketchy but safe

The hotel is run down and needs some maintenance. It is just a couple of blocks from the US Embassy, and there were two beds and a sleeping mat in the room. The shower's water kept turning off and the sink was plugged the whole time we stayed. The room smelled fine and it was okay clean. The A/C was good. There was a refrigerator. The overall hotel feels dirty. The bottom floor is mostly an Australian bar scene.

Time to move on...

Always stay here for one one before flying out,,,I always end up with noisy road side windows rooms. Also took the 3rd tier room...not much difference from next tier down. Red planet my next option,,,,cost twice as much but many times better,,and it's right up the street.
