Positives: Breakfast was good, room was clean and new, the distance from the city center was only a 10 minute walk, hotel was a great value.

Negatives: Rooms were tiny, no fridge in the room which is unusual for the Philippines, rooms were poorly insulated for noise. I heard street noise at night despite being 4th floor away from the street, and we were woken up by neighboring guests before 6am talking and geting coffee,

Incredibly Well thought out hotel with conveniences of a hostel. Additional Shower room available to guests after check out. Free water bottles and communal shared fridge use. Breakfast was basic and made to order but considering price of the room... Is incredible value. Front desks Books good tours... Even late into the evening... Making things really easy. Love love love the outdoor breakfast dining space right outside every room. Ever run also has outdoor space to hand wet clothes and dry shoes. Good got water. One problem: El Nido is incredibly noisy... Roosters and traffic at 2 am. Even with ear plugs and head phones... Sleep was awful... Room has no sound proofing... You'll hear everything.

This trip was enjoyable. The shower pressure wasn’t the best but it wasn’t too bad. Everything else was very good. Can’t beat the price was $230 US for 5 nights. Breakfast was good eggs, decent bacon, pancakes, and some kind of yellow watermelon. Can’t beat the value bed was very comfy close to good restaurants and getting a ride is very easy

No thrills spot with a comfortable bed and great breakfast. Water pressure for shower is very mild just to let you know. Also, the noise from barking dogs all night was rather distracting and the roosters start about 0430 in the morning. Other than that a pleasant stay. Bring ear plugs if your'e a light sleeper

I do not understand why the review scores are not higher. This place is spotlessly clean, the staff is helpfull and breakfast good, air-conditioning and hot water are great
The hotel is an easy walk to downtown. And the price is a total bargain..
It is a very basic hotel, but exactly as shown in the pictures.
Only downside is the noise of the road that most of the hotels are built along

Overall, the property was worth the price. Bed was comfy and the AC was great. You got a free delicious breakfast each morning. The staff always tried to assist where they could and overall we enjoyed our stay! As for the cons, the wifi is a little spotty at times, there were a number of ants within the building and the room (though we weren’t bothered by this), it is something to consider. Our toilet was broken in the sense that it was leaking, though they tried to fix it during our stay, but still no luck. Again, we liked our stay though it could get noisy at times, we would come again!

The hotel is near the beach where we catch our boat ride for the tour. Walking distance to small shops and restaurants. The staff were friendly, provided good service, and we have delicious breakfast. You can also book the tours in the hotel. Give you info what is the best tour. The shower needs to be fixed to avoid water leaking to the floor.

Great hotel with basic essentials provided

My wife and I had a great experience at this hotel. The room was clean and well air conditioned with a pretty comfortable bed. The bathroom was fully functional and clean as well. The only downside to this stay (which was an issue everywhere we stayed in the Philippines) was the presence of little ants in the bathroom.
Pros:
- Complimentary breakfast which tasted good
- Pretty good wifi
- Generally clean and great staff
- Bathtub if you need to take a bath
- Walking distance from all the shops and restaurants
- Across from top rated bar in El nido

Cons:
- Little ants crawling in the bathroom and some parts of teh room (not in the bed though thankfully)
- Loud construction next door and traffic noise

Very disappointed

Only got hot water on first day. Extremely low water pressure. Had to flush the toilet 2-3 times. Noisy neighbors and construction next door until 11pm. Loud staff talking to neighbors outside our door early in the morning waking us up. Driver they recommended to go back to Puerto Princesa almost got us killed many times on the road. Bathroom window is an open window that can’t be closed. Light switch was dangerously falling off.
