Midnight, the after-effects of merlot and moscato were depicted by off-beat dancing. Were heard through off-key singing.
No matter how hammered, mic hoggers were on standby.
There were about seventeen travel bloggers in our Linden Suites one-bedroom suite. Fifteen Filipinos, one American, and one German. They all came for an event organized by The Linden Suites' Marketing Communications Manager Michael Anthony Sagaran and Melo Villareal of outoftownblog.com which I dubbed "Pajama Party Wherein We Don't Wear Pajamas".
On our agenda: Eat, drink, sing. Which we all accomplished. And then some.
After which, we crashed in our respective suites to experience The Linden Suites' refurbished rooms. Except for one, all suites on the ninth floor were assigned to our party (slightly similar to how it went down during our first staycation).
Being one of the early birds, I was able to peek into every type of refurbished suite the hotel's currently offering. Each suite boasts the same massive floor space. The same sophisticated design, but with a more modish touch. And all of the suites' rooms now got bathtubs!
Just every bit ideal for a staycation.
Just every bit ideal for a staycation.
