    If possible to put insect net in the Family room particularly on windows.

    The beds are comfortable, there is a heater and bidet. They have complimentary coffee in the reception area all through out your stay. Nisha is very accommodating and the people of Batad are very warming. Though the place is challenging since it's far and prepare yourself to do lot of walking up and down😊 but overall all worth it were able to show with our children how the Ifugao's intricately carved the terraces into the mountains.

    The property is a 10 min walk from the road, itnis the first one. It is not suitable for rolling suitcases, path is rocky, steep and can get slippery after rain

    The view… ahhh the view! This is a very simple place (it is not a hotel, it is a guesthouse!) that does an excelent job in a place with little to no infrastructure. You have all you need, including an all day restaurant. Nisha will go to the next level to make sure guests are happy.

    This is a basic place to stay but so so special, an experience that will not get elsewhere.

    The most amazing view from the Inn we have ever seen! This place is basic so don’t expect luxury hotel but Nisha serves excellent food and can help you with anything you need. Bed was comfortable. A truly special place with the best views in Batad.

    The hike to get in there was a little more than expected especially if you arrive after dark. But the views from the Inn were great in the morning and the big payoff for the hike in.

    Breakfast and the meals we had there were great

    The breakfast was prepared promptly given the fact that our time to explore Batad was very limited. Aracacelli was a delight to chat with as a food server and chamber maid. Nisha was very thoughtful of her guests and wants to ensure the best of our stay. We arrived quite late at night and yet she made sure that someone received us at the parking area. She was very responsive and thoughtful. Manong Samson was very patient guiding and entertaining with our group who opted to see the terraces up close and personal and to explore Tappiya Falls. Batad is delightfully serene and a world away from the hustle and bustle. Our party learned a lot about the lay of the land and the Ifugao culture.

    The net on the window is not really working, so at night lots of bugs will get into your room. Rmb to close your window entirely to avoid that.

    It has all the service you need - food, massage, tour guide, souvenirs shopping, etc. It is close to the main road so you dont need a long walk to reach there with your heavy luggage. It has a really nice view and the staff is super nice and helpful.

    There is no mobile signal in the area, but hotel provide Wi-Fi. It is better to arrive on daytime. The place is about 10 -15 minutes walk from the parking area and extra parking fee.

    Great view and convenient location for exploring the Batad Rice Terraces. Great staff. Very good Filipino meals.

    The room had only beds,there were not even hooks so all our things had to be on the floor. No airconditioning. If we could open the windows during nights it would be OK but because of mosquitos we couldnot.

    The view could not be better. The rice teraces just bellow are marvelous.Our family room had a bathroom and a toilet that was perfect. The owner is a really nice person, helped with everything.

    This are not really negative things for us, but i there are good to know. There are lots of little crawlies, but you're in the countryside so that's normal. Arrival is only for people who can carry their luggage (backpacks recommended) or can walk well. But you can also ask if you can get support for carrying. As usual in Asia, the walls are very thin, which means it is sometimes noisy, when the guests are louder. But there is not much what the host can do.

    A small basic accommodation that is family owned. The location is a dream, right above the rice terraces. We had the family room and therefore our own bathroom which makes things easier. Room was clean, food was basic but good. Prices are a little higher but if you're surprised, everything has to be brought to the countryside by foot. Since you are in a village you hear lots of animals day and night, you should know that. You can go on short and longer hikes directly from Countryside, we were there for 2 days and three nights. We thought it was beautiful and would definitely come back and recommend the Countryside.

    Beautiful balcony shared by all the guests as a dining area. Really pretty. We had a guide who helped show us where the hostel was as we had hiked in to the other side of Batad. However, if you are entering from the road side then it is one of the easiest hostels to walk to and find. The view of the rice terraces is very pretty. Josephine was very kind and even offered a lovely massage for a reasonable fee. The hostel even had showers and a flush toilet (which was one of the only places we stayed at with one in the Philippines). Bear in mind that the food in Batad is more expensive often than elsewhere in the Philippines so perhaps factor that in to costings.
