The rooms are quite small but have a fan and an A/C and the bed is comfortable. The bathrooms are clean. I wouldn’t say it’s a social hostel but to relax and have a it of time for yourself it’s great. The owners are great: friendly and helpful. Great location, close to restaurants, cafes and the big mall. I really enjoyed my stay here and would come again!

I stayed here on my way to El-nido because my flight arrived at 9pm so I was looking for a stay. Overall the place is great. The small room I had was for the duration of my stay sufficient but if you plan on staying longer, take the larger room.
Not far from the pier so if you fancy do the 15min walk or take a trike

Staffers are very friendly and helpful.
Rooms are very small. Even the door cannot open easily because the mattress is blocking in the way.
