    Running water is unstable but still ok.

    Comfortable bed, clean room, good facilities, friendly staff, great location near shopping areas, markets, coffee shops, restaurants, in walking distance to many highlight places i.e. museums, ports, etc. and what's out of my expectation is free unlimited laundry service.

    Only problem was the water was running very weak so it made our shower difficult.

    We only stayed here one night but we already made plans to come back next time we pass through Puerto Princessa. The staff is so friendly and helpful, they helped us book transportation and connected us with other travelers who are doing similar tourist activities as us. The condo was spacious. It was so nice to have a bedroom for once, especially as a budget traveler. The restaurant has yummy pizzas, the pool is beautiful and the outside common area has a great vibe.

    - the bathroom situation wasn't amazing and not super clean but for the price it was okay

    - Free Laundry Service (amazing) - Water Dispenser in the room - felt very safe due to the door codes - nice and private beds - friendly and helpful staff

    The area outside the room can be improved liek a common area if you want to sit and not staying in your bed. The walls inside the bathroom can also be used for adding more areas to put your clothes.

    Great staff. Located near Super Metro mall. Free laundry is vey helpful and it saves me time. The area is near some food establishments, like Julies bakery, local Korean food stop, street foods, carinderias.

    Nothing much really.

    I like that this is actually a female dorm house with one 6 bedder dorm room on the second floor, and a double room at the ground level. As I was staying in this accoms with my male partner, we stayed at the ground level - you can see how safe and secure this would feel for a solo budget female traveller. They also provide free laundry service, and location is very ideal near Colon street, within walking distance to most attractions within Cebu City. The double room has Netflix for times when you don't feel like battling Cebu dust, noise and heat. Perfect, I should say, for budget travellers looking for somewhere convenient.

    No social area, but I wasn’t really going there to socialise just a quick stopover for a flight.

    Rooms were very clean and they had the most comfortable bedding. Aircon was a big + Free laundry!! Done within the day, what more can you ask for.

    Highly recommended! It's clean, comfortable, and safe, and the staff is very nice and helpful. It's very well organised. Curtains in the bed, light, sockets, and lockers are available just outside the room. Big room with plenty of storage for luggage.The bathroom is very clean and has hooks and shelf. Good aircon and good internet. Hot and cold drinkable water is available in the room. It has everything and more (hairdresser, iron, free laundry) what you can expect from a very good hostel. Excellent! I'm coming back to Cebu, and I've booked it again!

    Aircon was a bit noisy and Internet was not working super well. We stayed in a Deluxe Queen Studio and it did not have any outside view.

    Location and price are the best things of this place. Hotel is located close to the port where you get the ferry to Bohol and Siquijor and to the main attractions in Cebu. The price is very cheap. Room is very very simple, but clean. Staff is nice and helpful. Works well for a one night stay in Cebu, when you don't want to spend much.

    Good for 1 night stay

    - Noise. I think this hostel is a common transit stop so be prepared to get disrupted sleep when others need to wake at 3, 4am for their morning flights. Also the door lock doesn’t seem to be fitted well and kept banging against the lock frame - Pillows needed more filling - they were very thin and lumpy (you can feel individual cotton lumps inside which kept shifting around] - No windows, but that’s ok for a 1 night stay - I think I was the 2nd or 3rd person to reach for a dorm of 6, but they had run out of towels, so I had to use my own - It was a bit hard to find, this sign is not obvious

    - Really kind and helpful staff - Clean, even the communal bathrooms & comfort room/toilet - Comfortable bed & blankets - Hot water shower - Free drinking water - Communal hairdryer and iron for use - Good WiFi - Felt safe even though the area outside is a bit sketchy - Super value for money
