Not a Vanilla-Manila Experience
... and fresh imported orchids in the rooms, daily complimentary cocktail hours, and $8 waters in the minibar. In short, the kind of place I'd never stay in, and frankly I'm scared that they're going to smell "poor backpacker" residue on me, put their freshly shined boots in my bum, and escort me out (also: free daily shoeshines in the lounge).
