Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Edwin Nichols, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
For a quieter stay, request a room on higher floors, ideally above the 5th floor. The hotel's 13-story building is likely to have most of its noise concentrated in the lower floors, especially those near the street level. Given the property's address on 13th Street, you can expect some street noise, but it should be less pronounced on higher floors. Additionally, rooms on the higher floors will have a better view of the surrounding area, including the nearby Manila Bay.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms near the service entrance, which is likely to be on the ground floor. This area tends to attract more foot traffic, noise from service staff, and occasional deliveries. Additionally, rooms near the lift (elevators) on lower floors may also experience more noise from guests and staff.
Best views
Rooms on the higher floors, particularly those on the 10th to 13th floors, will offer better views of the surrounding area, including the Manila Bay.
Quietest floors
Floors 6-12 are likely to be the quietest, given their distance from the street and potential noise sources.
🔊 Noise notes
As a 3-star hotel in a city, you can expect some ambient noise from the street, especially during rush hour. However, the hotel's location on a side street may mitigate some of the noise from the main thoroughfares.
Insider tips
