Somerset Olympia

Manila - The flight over to Manila was very choppy due to the Typhoon hitting the capital.   When I arrive, it was raining heavily.   The flight was delayed by 20 minutes due to the technicans fixing the in flight entertainment system.

Lesley waited for me and we took a taxi to our hotel - Somerset Olympia Makati an executive apartment but was disappointed upon arrival because I was given a different room from which I booked over the internet.   The apartment that I was expecting was double storey 2-bedroom but was given same level adjourning room; very old and the air-con is window unit with a musky smell.   I complaint and they best they could do was to locked the adjourning room to make it 2 single rooms. 

2nd complaint was that I was given only 1 password access to use the wireless which means that either Lesley or I have to log off to use it.  After persuading them, they relented and gave us another password.  I don't think there will be a next time staying at this apartment.
