    Nothing in my experience

    The hostel is so close to White beach. The rooms are clean, spacious. The staffs are so amazing, they really welcome you like they have known you for a long time. It makes the stay more enjoyable because of how jolly, friendly the staffs are. Plus, the nightly activities. I met a lot of people around the globe, so memorable. I celebrated my birthday in Frendz and it was so memorable esp when all people were singing happy birthday to me with the band and they even gave me a tasty birthday shot in flame. Haha. The island hopping was pretty good as well. I enjoyed it so much. It is indeed a FRiENDZ hostel. Will be back soon.

    Layout of the room as some beds are downstairs and some upstairs- was really noisy when the people sleeping upstairs came down to the bathroom/ to go outside with there shoes on the wood. Found the room really stuffy and hot too.

    Staff were very friendly! Literally a couple mins walk to the beach. The food and coffee at the hostel was a bit pricey but everything I ate there was amazing. The sunset boat cruise with the hostel was really fun :)

    The only thing was that the bed was really hard and water pressure poor.

    I loved how Friendz hostel was so near by the beach and quite literally everything else. The facilities very really nice and the common area was really cozy. Staff is amazing and made the nights fun and unforgettable.

    Everything… my sister enjoyed a lot because at night people will gather in the bar to play billiards, sing or just chat with others.

    The staff are nice and even showed my sister some of the tourist spot around.

    A good hostel for solo travelers in Boracay

    Nothing. Same as previous reviews, the street going to the hostel and the beach are rocky/bumpy and dark at night, but it's not their fault and it's beyond the hostel's responsibility.

    If you are a solo traveler, this is a very good place for you to have fun and meet other solo travelers. They host fun events every night, without being disruptive since they lower the sound as night gets later and events are finished at 11pm. The location is very near to the beach, D'mall, stores, and restaurants.

    A water cooler rather than having to ask to refill would be a great addition

    Great property, aircon, pool area, can buy hot meals on site. It’s a very social hostel but not too party either, lots of evening activities and the boat trip is great fun. Highly recommend if meeting other travellers is the aim!

    My only complaint was that my mattress was not that comfortable. It was a bit saggy and sunken.

    What an amazing place! I’ve stayed in a lot of hostels and this is hands down one of the best ever. Lovely staff, gorgeous, clean, and peaceful surroundings, and the food and drinks were amazing and so cheap. I didn’t want to leave!
