Basic but does the trick”

Good stay! However, it has no social atmosphere whatsoever and is really only a place to stay. Good value for money though and the facilities are clean, and they provide you with a towel. Also close to the airport for convenience. Bit of a warning: it's across two bars and you can hear the singing and other loud noises quite clearly.

Positives - good location for the centre. Negatives - No water or even glasses for guests. Cold shower only. No breakfast or coffee available and no facilities in the room. Staff polite but no real assistance unless you wanted to buy a tour! Room very average and no where to hang or put clothes.

A little hard to spot on the main road, next to the Giligans restaurant, look out for the orange sign. Friendly welcome, room is large and clean, the bed is very comfy. Agree quite noisy from the bars but it can be slept through, close to the airport, clean and a good price still make it a good place to stay.

Noisy neighborhood”

I didn't get a good rest because there's a few bars located near the hostel which played very loud music till very late. Also the building next to the hostel has construction work and they start very early in the morning. The shared bathroom was not clean and the twin beds were very small. The wifi didn't work on the 2nd floor. The aircon made a lot of noise. The only good thing is that the owners were nice people. But overall my 2 nights stay were terrible and I really don't understand why this place got such good reviews.

Le pire hôtel....de mes 3 semaines aux Philippines... Le point positif la proximité avec l'aéroport 1.3km....sinon....rien L'entrée donnant sur l'hôtel fait penser à un bidonville. WC et douche commune et dans quel état!!! La chambre n'a rien à voir avec les photos.. Elle me faisait plus penser à une cellule. Le patron de l'hôtel très antipathique une boîte de nuit en face de l'hôtel si vous cherchez un peu de calme passez votre chemin...
