The EDSA Tower houses residences that have been refurbished with new furniture pieces while the kitchen and entertainment amenities were also updated. Residences located in the Ayala Tower (categorized as "Suite Residences") were completely renovated from floor to ceiling and updated with modern furniture pieces and residential appliances. During my most recent stay, I requested to view residence units in both towers, and in my honest opinion, I didn't see any striking difference in terms of design and furnishing.

The residences are well maintained and still look fresh as if they were renovated not too long ago. The guest facilities are also outstanding, mostly at par with, and sometimes even better than, the five-star standards of many hotels. The staff is generally nice people, very helpful and efficient.
