    - While the price and proximity to the airport are definite pluses, the surrounding area leaves much to be desired. There are no restaurants within walking distance, so you'll need to take a taxi or ride a tricycle to reach the main road if you want to catch a jeepney to restaurants, malls, and other attractions. The air conditioning was adequate. Weak Wi-Fi signal inside the room, which made it difficult to stay connected The old lady at the front desk was unfortunately quite rude not only to guests but also to other staff.

    ¤ An affordable hostel near the Airport. ¤ the room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. ¤ each room having its own bathroom was a nice touch, especially since the bathrooms were kept clean. ¤ The staff was generally nice and helpful, with the exception of the old lady manager.. Overall, it's a decent option if you're looking for a budget-friendly place near the airport and don't mind the travel inconvenience for meals and activities.

    The shared dorm felt a little cramped and I had nowhere to put my bag in the room

    The staff were so friendly and they communal social areas are wonderful, I slept really well as well :))

    It’s not so easy to spot the property, when gate is closed.

    Good looking, curtains around bed. Very close to the local life - shops, malls, restaurants.

    Shared toilets are very basic. Shared sinks are awful :(

    This hostel is nice, located very conveniently close to the Airport and City Hall of Lapu-Lapu neighborhood. Staff is friendly and willing to help with information about visiting Cebu city and the island (going to Oslob - whale sharks, or Moalboal - sardines). Rooms are ok.

    The walls are very thin so the neighbors playing music at 1am kept us up (not the hostels fault and owner even went to their room to ask them to turn it off after messaging them) Also, bathroom shower clogs and the entire bathroom floor is flooded.

    Great for a nights rest before heading to the airport

    The establishment does not take credit cards and it would be helpful if they did. Also they should just include the tax in the price and not do it separately.

    The location is decent, the place is clean and the private rooms are good size and have ac and tvs in them. The dorm room is nice as well and the bathrooms are clean. The staff is very friendly and the price is fair for the private rooms and excellent value for the dorm rooms. The place is quite close to the airport and I got a Move It mototaxi for 50 pesos to and from the airport (each way, around 1 us dollar).
