Some rooms are new while some remind me of old hotels, afterall Butuan City is one of the oldest cities in Mindanao. What I juat dont like about the place is their service (waitressing, room service, front desk people) are inconsistent. One stay, im pampered but the next visit, i have to make an effort to follow-up on orders, especially... More

With all my reviews I do point out the good and bad points of a hotel. Let me first start with the bad points. The room we has was situated near the main highway and we were greeted by honks and engines buzzing. Nothing special on the room and quite frankly it requires a little updating. The complimentary breakfast we... More

We checked-in here, late one evening, because our booked accommodation suffered a brownout (power failure) and had no back-up generator. I recall it being around 2230 hours, the reception staff didn't make us feel particularly welcome, the bar had already closed for the night thus no food and/or beverages were to be available until the next day and when we...

My first room at Dotties was their executive suite with a kingsize bed. The room was spacious and at first glance clean. The TV remote didn't work, alerting the staff twice did nothing. The A/C was filled with stale water so we had the choice of sweating or smelling the stale water. The bathroom sink/faucet was leaking non-stop onto the... More

This is a hotel for all its qualities and facilities. Ample parking, big executive suites, a pool, function halls and resto. Free breakfast needs improvement in variety though. And more towels in the rooms- face towel and floor towel please!

A clean budget hotel. It's not so much but it's ok for its price. The room is quite small. Their shower is better than what you would expect though, pressure is strong. Dotties' bathroom is kind of scary and very small, though it's ok. The whole are is quite old. Front desk people were all friendly :) And their internet... More
