SMCO 風住宅酒店(Wind Residences by Smco)

The place is 100% good, and I was able to utilize all the appliances included in the stay without any problems, such as the rice cooker, heater, hot shower, wifi, and others. The view is so good, watching the sunset and sunrise. A 24-hour convenience store is available, as are nearby restaurants. Some attractions are near the accommodation as well.

I would say it's not the best place to stay but the sunrise makes everything worth it. SMDC Wind Residences has almost everything nearby. Convenience store, coffee shops, restaurants, main road, few minutes away from Sky Ranch and one of the best overlooking spas in Ta***tay, Qi Wellness. It does not have Wi-Fi and there's no mobile phone signal as well. Generally, the room is deadspot unless you place your phone right beside the main door. It has simple bed, simple design. No smart TV nor cable but it has the TV box where you can watch local channels. I guess this place is just for people to sleep in, shower and take a quick meal. There's a functioning fridge and kitchen utensils that you can use. There's a rice cooker too if incase you need to eat rice or heat noodles. Overall, it's an okay experience. Just don't expect too much. Besides, it's very affordable compared to most rooms you can rent in Ta***tay. I got the lake view room for only 1,500. There’s a lot to do around the area. Better not lock yourself up in the room!!! 🙂

Overall Wind Residences is good but the unit we rented has lck of things to use. No bidet, lamp is malfunctioning, bed is not that soft.

We got Tower 3, room 1733. The hotel has 4 elevators but only one was working. The sink in the kitchen was dirty and the one in the bathroom was clogged. There was no handler for the shower head, so you have to hold it while using. That was very inconvenient. The windows were dirty. We hope those were not molds. There were no bedsheets provided for the singlebed. We found sheets on the tv cabinet, but they smell and looks used. The table on the balcony was dirty was well.

It was fun, the staff were very accommodating and flexible even in crucial time.

There is no wifi or signal on our phones last night we had to go down the basement or the lobby to get signals or data, Tv also wont work we had the worst experience EVER. We tried to coordinate with the host but to surprise no answer and they even hang up on our calls last night. Were told also that there is no wifi on the unit but on our reservation the amenities include a wifi internet. In additional, No toiletries available. They don't provide that either. There is noises on other unit even at 12 midnight. We stay at the lobby must of time.

May uod sa cr grabe ang dumi. We’ve been waiting for the caretaker pa kasi dami nya inaassist na unit. Supposedly we should check in the night we booked it but they cannot be reached so we had to book another room from other people. Luckily they agreed na iresched yung date ksi fault nmn nila na wala sumasagot during the time na dpat mag check in n kmi. Grabe kadiri yung cr sis daming uod di ko kinayaaaa. Sa true lang.

Nice view

The place is good and accessible to all. Will highly recommend and the caretaker is also kind and easy to communicate. FYI, no wifi and Globe & Smart signal is very weak in the place. No toiletries are available, so you need to bring your own. If you need an internet connection for work, highly suggest visiting Pocholo restaurant, they offer good food, free Wifi and best view of Taal Volcano.
