    It was still under construction, and the aircondition is not that cold.

    I love the location and it is close to a good coffee place, Kanaway. And as well as Sunset bridge.

    Actual shower in the room had very little water pressure and the hot option was too hot to use. The outdoor showever however was perfect.

    Very comfortable, affordable and aesthetically pleasing accomodation. Good size of room. You can rent a motorcycle directly from the property, it was very easy to use.

    only the problem is it’s hard to find their staff if we need something. I think the owner is just so nice so the staff can do anything they want.

    the owner was so nice, can rent motorbikes and they also organized our transportation to the airport.

    Nothing to say !

    Perfect room for our stay : simple but yet very comfy and super clean. The private bathroom was clean as well and hot shower was more than welcome. Location is great, next to cloud9 and a very cute beach. The road is a bit bumpy to get there, but super short and nothing scary at all. You have cafes and restaurant around. Staff was accomodating and here to answer our questions. All in all a super convenient place and very comfy room with everything we needed. Would recommend

    DO NOT STAY HERE. I have nothing nice to stay about this place. Totally overpriced. - Hosts are SO rude, they just ignore you and carry on looking at their phone. - Not accommodating at all or helpful, half the time they weren’t even around to be able to help. - The wifi literally doesn’t work. - Rooms are DISGUSTING. Dirty towels, dirty bathroom. - Shower DOESNT WORK. At all, the sink tap has more pressure. - location was ok in terms of where you want to be, 10 minutes from general Luna, but the road it is down is so dangerous, so many pot holes when riding a scooter.

    We weren’t offered breakfast. It wasn’t available. The location was down a dirty, hole-filled road in a dodgey area.

    Not really don't like but it can be better if the linens could be thicker. 😀😃🤭 The shower head can be better too.. but the water is strong so kudos.

    The space we had in our accomodation is huge and the place is very aesthetically pleasing. The location is near GL. The value for money is really worth it. And to the owner...please smile. You are handsome. There are times we feel like your not in a good mood. Hehehe

    The service, we did arrive earlier, but than 2 pm but we were not really helped, when we tried to get helped we had ask multiple questions just get answers. Staff even said in Bisaya thinking that my girlfriend wouldn't understand that we should just leave because we didn't trust them, following us asking if we could hid the bags somewhere when we were away prior to check in not because we don't trust the staff, but because the gate is open to everyone and the staff is not always in the kitchen. Probably would have booked my full five days at hilaya, but because the staff was not helpful at all, we choose to move hotel even if the room and.the hotel is very nice.

    Clean, comfortable and location was nice. Room was very nice.

    the property was not well maintained, the bathroom stinks and the caretaker is always away so if you need assistance it will be hard. Misleading photos in the listing. the room doesn’t look like that in person.
