Macau : Hotel Taipa

Day 1
3:00 - After handing my booking form, Reception guy told me I need to deposit HKD500. Still "No Pesos" I was starting to get embarrassed, worried and irritated all at the same time. He just told me he'll credit it to my card and showed me a slip of HKD900 "reserved" amount.
4:15 - all settled in our "1102" non-smoking room, we are now ready for a short walking tour. Minutes away from the hotel is the taipa village and the st.carmel church.



11:00 - We're back at the hotel, bone-tired, we didn't mind the hard beds and even before tekeng had the chance to soak in the tub, we oldies were already creating zzzs :)

Day 2
7:00 - Rise and shine, it was my turn for the tub. Do you want to see me in the tub? hehe ;)
9:00 - We had our buffet breakfast. Extra person was charged HKD58. Didn't bother to take photos. Food, as I've read in reviews, were just so-so. Bumawi na lang kami sa sausages haha I love their marmalade though.

10:30 - We're back in our room, packed our things and proceeded to the reception for checkout
11:00 - Bill was HKD 498.01, no tip. Didn't occur to me at the time to give one haha

Overall, even if no HDMI products can be found here, the hotel was cheap for PHP 2,618.67 including breakfast for 3pax. There are hostels in macau, I just didn't take the risk. Other than augusters.de, non offered online booking or response via email was too long.
