It's hard to say! The people are great! Service is excellent! But the smell the cracks on the wall, the star rates should change, i think orbits and expedia should get their own people come out and look at the locations to be honest before the rates stars.

Me and my fiance stayed here this october going into November and I can honestly say it was a breath taking experience, our main man Paul was our man with the plan made sure our room was nice and tidy everyday me and my fiance made sure to tip him good for his service. I definitely want to come back here someday soon.

This was my second stay and I will use Big 8 again. The hot water working was a major improvement from my last visit. As always, the staff was super friendly, helpful , and professional. Food was good, just wish that the bar at the pool had been open.

The hotel is “tired”. Needs work everywhere. No hot water in the room. Cold showers no fun. However, staff is very very friendly. The bed was awful. My back hurt each morning. Just worn out. Coffee shop is great! Wi-Fi is not very good except in coffee shop.

Staff services are great! They’re all polite and approachable. Food is okay. The internet connection is disappointing. There’s a laundry shop outside (walking distance)-it’s cheaper. If you don’t want noise while sleeping maybe it’s good to request a room away from the street because the hotel is along the highway. We heard cars honking at night. We wanted to try the VIP KTV but they’re on renovations.

We stayed here because we have functions to attend. We booked 2 rooms. Honestly, we didn’t have a pleasant sleep, we can hear loud noises from the karaoke bar til almost 12. Aircon did not work properly, blowing cold air directly into my face. Staffing service good.

Was disappointed

Booked this hotel because it had a pool, even though it was more expensive. Upon checking in I was notified that the pool is closed until further notice. Was also told the phones are not working. Room was outdated. Went to the restaurant, which is supposed to be open from 6am to 10pm. It was closed. Also had to kill a few cockroaches in the room. On the plus side, the staff were super friendly.

Hot water wasn't working. Charged a fee when 8 friends met us there and brought a cake into the dining room, it didn't matter that we had just ordered meals & drinks for everyone. Wanted to charge us a fee when we brought our own snacks to the pool area which was more than ordering their snacks. Charged a fee to get pool towels and even gave us wet ones (gross - were they used and not washed?). Charged a fee to use an iron and ironing board (per hour). Staff was pretty awesome actually, facilities not at all.

4/10 Fair

Room configuration was wrong for various reasons: The bed was placed next to the aircon which was blowing consistently over my face, which I had to pile my pillow to. On the second day, I decided to pull the entire bed into the middle of the room so I could at least have a better sleep. Ongoing noise from highway traffic and loud karaoke from the rooftop. The safe box was not working. I have constantly asked to get it fixed, and staff came to just replace the battery; yet it still does not work, and the cord was dangling and obviously did not do its job. I applaud The security guard at the front and at the back of the building was kind and always smiled each time they opened the glass door. Breakfast was basic and not much of a choice. But staff was always keen to assist. The pool and garden setting was presentable and a perfect place to chill out, but there was no bar open for me to buy a drink.

This is the best hotel in Tagum and we have stayed here a couple of times years ago when the place was still quite new. The hotel itself is conveniently located and is quite clean and welcoming when you come into the lobby. When we went to our room however, we found problems in the bathroom. The tap leaked all over the counter and the handheld shower head mount had fallen off and the hose was just wrapped around the shower control valve. There was also no way to get water flowing out of the handheld shower head. This and the faucet should have been repaired BEFORE this room was rented. This was very disappointing to see in a high end hotel which we enjoyed staying in in the past. When I complained to the desk clerk he just basically shrugged it off. It seems that maintenance is not a strong point in this place. Breakfast was also included and although it was reasonably well prepared it was catering more to the Filipino taste rather than the western taste. It would be nice to have a couple of more items such as bacon and home fries.

I really enjoyed my stay at Big 8 hotel. Accessibility and parking were easy and convenient. Their pool was large enough to enjoy with other guest. Workout room was adequately supplied with equipment. The best part was the staff. They were friendly,courteous and welcoming. I definitely will stay there again.

I have stayed here off and on several times this year visiting relatives - weddings, babies, etc. The hotel is wonderful. Staff excellent. Rooms comfortable. Gym and pool, cafe, breakfast buffet all clean and lovely. The hotel itself and the the parking garages have security guards 24 hours a day. Very safe and clean hotel
