Pros: The location was very convenient. The view from the Apartment on the 46nd floor over the Manila Skyline was so nice, especially at Night. The Apartment itself was very comfortable. Clean and spacious. The Elevator's luckily all days work properly. Christian, the staff of the Apartment Owner was very friendly and helpful.
Cons: With all understanding of the security of the guests and tenants, the security guys are too strict. There are no visitors like friends allowed, if they are not registered at least 3 working days ahead. This was a bit frustrating, because a \

Great value for a great location. 
Pros: Had a two week stay. Great price for a great location. Based on other reviews, I found the Internet connection strong enough and bugs we’re over exaggerated in other reviews. Having known how to handle food waste in the Philippines, the unit did provide the thin clear bags to bag your waste to prevent the appearance of critters. One plus as a YouTube watcher was the smart TV. I personally did not plan to bring guests, so I found the strict security not as cumbersome as others have. I would consider staying again if the price remains at a great value.
Cons: Being a two week stay, I found that no personal hygiene cleaning products were provided at the unit. I had to purchase those items myself within the first hour, for example, shampoo, soap (body, hand, dish), and a dish sponge. The layout of the buildings are kind of confusing at first. You have to take a specific set of elevators up and down to/from the lobby, then a second elevator within your tower to reach the unit. Annoying but what can you do? I’ve often seen the Light Residence as being advertised as attached to the Light Mall and Boni station, that is not exactly accurate. The residential building is next-door to the mall and on the second floor of the mall is Boni station. You’ll have to exit the residential building to then go into the mall to then go into Boni, something that I’ve never seen explained in that detail. Nothing is directly attached and you’ll have to go through multiple elevators, multiple doors, and multiple security. Also, the second floor of the mall where Boni station is, is not accessible until 11 AM.

Der Aufenthalt war gut und ich werde wieder kommen.
Pros: Das Appartement ist sehr gut ausgestattet mit allem was man braucht. Man kann kochen, es gibt Besteck. Für westliche Besucher sei gesagt : es gibt keine Messer (scharf) zum Fleisch oder Brötchen schneiden und keinen „Coffemaker“, was aber kein Problem sein sollte. Ich kenne das Problem in den Philippinen und habe mir eigene mitgebracht. Der Balkon ist etwas klein, aber es gibt genügend Platz unten, wo sich 2 Schwimmbecken befinden, um sich zu entspannen/sonnen. Der Besitzer antwortet sofort und zufriedenstellend.
Cons: Um in das Appartement zu kommen muss man erst durch die „Kontrolle“. Auch nach 2-3 Wochen muss man immer die Bestätigung zeigen, dass man berechtigten Zutritt hat. Von anderen Residenzen bin ich es anders gewohnt, aber so ist es eben 100% sicher dass niemand unberechtigt rein kommt. Dann mit dem Aufzug hoch, rausgehen und ins nächste Gebäude gehen und wieder mit dem Aufzug in das Stockwerk hoch fahren in dem sich das Appartement befindet. Es ist ein bisschen langwierig aber so hat man auch Bewegung.. Das einzig größere Manko, meines Erachtens, ist, wenn man Grab oder ein Taxi zur Light Residenz bestellt, kommt es NIE dort an wo man wartet. Aber das ist jammern auf hohem Niveau.
