We had a difficult time choosing our accommodation in Macau 'cause even if there are a lot of hotels there, not all are budget-friendly.
We eventually chose Inn Hotel Macau in Taipa which we booked from Agoda. Accommodations are usually pricey in Macau and it's something that we failed to take into consideration since we got busy planning our itinerary. There are still cheaper ones that are located in the Old Macau City but we opted to stay here in Taipa so the location is strategic as well. While paying 4,500 PHP+ per night for two persons was beyond our budget especially since we stayed for four nights, we still feel that we got the best of our money's worth with Inn Hotel Macau.
This hotel is only three bus stops away from Aeroporto De Macau/ Macau International Airport. Make sure to get a screenshot of where this is located especially during on your first day.
Check in was a breeze. We informed them thru Facebook that we are to arrive at around 10PM - 11PM so they were expecting us already. You'll be asked to pay a refundable 500 MOP deposit once you check-in so be prepared for that.
We were hungry when we arrived in Macau but we chose to check-in first and just look for food after. The convenience store inside the hotel was already closed but there are a lot of stores outside even if that was already very late in the evening, there's even a 24 hours supermarket/grocery nearby.
BELOW ARE PHOTOS FROM OUR ROOM:
They cleaned our room daily; threw the garbage; restocked water bottles and toiletries; and changed the towels. Thumbs up to that 'cause nothing is better than going back to a clean and tidy hotel room after a long day.
This is the recent addition to the freebies of Inn Hotel Macau.
They have a phone with fast and reliable internet connection that you may use while checked-in. While this phone doesn't have a hotspot to connect other devices, it has an app that erases all the data when you're done using it so logging in accounts felt safe and secure.

Our room was spacious and felt elegant. We had two windows, one is facing the mountains and one is facing Taipa.
Comfy beds! <3
While you only have three options for the main meals in the restaurant, salad and bread are unlimited. I was able to eat all three and my favorite was the soy sauce noodles. Food in Macau can get quite expensive so having breakfast/brunch before you leave the hotel is already a way to lessen expenses.
We were also given this complimentary coupon that we used in their sister hotel which is the Emperor Palace in Macau Peninsula. I got a sweet and sour pork meal that costs 55 MOP for free.
From Emperor Palace, going back the Inn Hotel wasn't a problem since they offer free shuttle service back and forth. And if you're from other areas in Macau, there's a nearby bus stop there so commuting isn't a problem.
Even if we first thought that staying in Inn Hotel Macau was expensive since we don't allot big budget for accommodations, the freebies they offer have actually enabled us to save more.
P.S. If you're buying souvenirs such as jerky and/or Macau pastries, don't buy at the casino hotels. The stores in Taipa which is located across this hotel has cheaper price for the same items.
