Taal hotel rooms a the Independent

"This is my second time staying here, but I'm sad to say that the rooms I got this time were a little dated and smelled like mold (both of them). I booked two rooms, and the other room had a working aircon, but unable to turn off or adjust settings. I even bought new batteries for the remote. SMCO representative was nice and helpful, but I felt weird leaving the room keys in a locker with NO LOCK. what if someone stole the keys and cleared out the room? Will I be responsible for that?...

"The staff were very accommodating. "

"Been here a few times and will continue to return. Rooms are all terrific. Staff is super amazing! Easy access to a wonderful view. Closest mall is minute away. Sky Ranch is next door so its easy when you have the kids."

"Excellent place to stay"
