As part of the cast of the iWant drama mystery series The Secrets of Hotel 88, Ina Raymundo couldn’t help but feel proud of the work of her younger co-stars. In her Instagram post last March 18, Ina shared photos from her last day on the set of the series.
In her post, Ina revealed that one of the reasons the project was memorable for her was because she had to away from home for a period of time while at work. She wrote, “During my last taping day for The Secrets of Hotel 88. ♥️ My very first time to accept a series where I had to do a cycle and be out of town for days since October 2025.”
The 50-year-old actress, who plays the role of Frida in the series, also applauded her younger cast members, who are all Pinoy Big Brother alumni and composed of rising stars like Mika Salamanca, Brent Manalo, AZ Martinez, Ralph De Leon, River Joseph, Klarisse De Guzman, Esnyr, Xyriel Manabat, Josh Ford, Kira Balinger, Dustin Yu, Bianca De Vera, and Will Ashley.
“Wala akong masabi sa cast from PBB. They were all so professional and hardworking, especially since this series calls for endurance and lots of tears. 😱 Mababait na mga bata.♥️ It was a pleasure working with all of you. Please watch #TheSecretsofHotel88.”
