  The Long and high staircase to the station is understandable by me due to the Shaw flyover underneath and the EDSA-Shaw intersection under it and the EDSA tunnel underlying the intersection. The elevators deteriorate and becoming unusable. When arriving at the station, insufficient signs or markers could lead you down at the wrong place.

  I don't like that the tracks are open. This is very dangerous to commuters, especially during the busiest times...

  The long climb up the stairs makes this a bit of a hike. The washroom inside the gate makes it useable only to commuters. Northbound trips were said to start at 5:30 am. The guard stopped people from descending to the platform even after 5:30 am. The cashier and the guard at the gate politely reminded me that the northbound train doesn't arrive until 5:30, which was nice. The fare from shaw to kamuning was 16.00 pesos. Minimum regular fare. The experience wasn't anything special. First train arrived at 5:45 am. Wouldn't recommend using the metro rail transit as a form of transport to the weak of heart. People with asthma and medical conditions may also want to use other modes of transport as well. Efficient, but taxing. This was a commute on Sunday.

  Good location. But it's very tiring to climb the many many stair steps for this station especially if you are carrying purchased items, or a backpack with laptop for work. I wish they have properly working escalators here at both sides of the station. It may get difficult to ride the train at this station during rush hour because trains are almost jam-packed at this point, and the passenger count here is one of the highest along the train path.
