Whenever I have people ask me where they can stay in the Vito Cruz-Taft area, I have one usual…read moreanswer: 2470 Dominga Dormitory. As their name suggests, the dorm is located in 2470 Dominga Street, just a stone's throw away from St. Scholastica, Benilde, and DLSU. The word "dormitory" may conjure images of substandard housing with shared bathrooms and dimly-lit rooms, but that's not at all the case for this one. In fact, what sets them apart is their hotel type accommodations. There are rooms for two, four, or more; as well as student lounges; and other common spaces. The best part is that their rates are quite friendly! For transients, last year's rate was Php 700/night for a room for two that comes with its own bathroom! This dormitory is open for both long-term occupants and transients. It's walking distance to the Vito Cruz LRT station, to the three schools earlier mentioned, and to various commercial establishments. Oh, and might I just add: It doesn't flood along Dominga Street, so this is a great place to live in!

I have a friend who used to live here and we would often pull off all nighters for exams. I really…read moreliked the vibe of the place that it gives off because unlike some condos that just feel like a plain apartment. The units here feel like you're actually living ala Will and Grace posh level. I also love their amenities because they have this really cozy study area that's just perfect for college students. If you're really not into the noisy cafes and would like to save bucks, then this is just the right place for you. Plus, you can plug your laptops there. The poolside is also nice because there's just enough space to swim around despite many people swimming there. Their gym is quite small although I think it's just enough for those who want to do a quick and simple workout because of their busy lifestyle. Most of all, I did enjoy playing billiards with my blockmates when we visited the place one time.

I'm not and haven't been a resident of Torre Lorenzo, actually, but I've visited my friend's unit…read morehere so many times, and I've even gone swimming in its roofdeck pool. As someone who has lived in the Vito Cruz-Taft area for over a decade now, I've seen my fair share of condo units and apartments. Believe me when I say Torre Lorenzo I (there's a Torre Lorenzo II nearby) units are SPACIOUS! Their studio units, which are available for rent for as low as Php 13,000, can fit two to three people. They have amenities like a gym and a swimming pool, which though not too big, is clean and well-maintained. Apart from those, Torre Lorenzo I's biggest draw is its prime location. It's only a very short walk away from the Vito Cruz LRT station, DLSU, Benilde, St. Scholastica, and the many other food and retail establishments in the area.

I have been living in Taft Avenue for quite some time now, maybe around 3-5 years. I have always…read moreloved Taft, there's this sense of belongingness in this area that makes me feel right at home. That's also may be due to the fact that it is a haven for universities so the place is teeming with condominiums, apartments and room rentals for those living away from home, with which I can totally relate. Another thing I love about Taft is how it's lined with restaurants that serve foods of every kind--Asian, Persian, Chinese, Asian Street Food, Filipino, Mexican, Japanese, Korean, among others. Aside from that, they also have a lot of karenderias if ever you're living off a small allowance or just want to save some money. Taft also has a couple of convenience stores, pharmacies, printing and computer shops, in case you will need them.

In fact, it used to be known as Cityland Tower 1. This old building may not have a swimming pool or gym or other amenities, for that matter. But a lot of young professionals vie for a chance to live here because rent for studio units can be very affordable and the location is perfect for those working in Makati CBD. This place is just a walk away from Ayala Avenue, Salcedo Park, and Ayala Triangle. It has a spacious basement parking area and safety is not a problem because there's 24-hour security in the building. Some of the establishments found at the ground floor of Valero Plaza are Family Mart Convenience Store, Mang Inasal, Di Cofi Vietnamese Cafe, Infinitea, King of Travel, Tambunting Pawnshop, and Nutopia Salon and Spa. All the necessities and services you need are within easy reach when you live in Valero Plaza.
