If you're looking for a cheap place to stay within the city of Puerto Princesa, this is one of them! Best places to dine in are a tricycle ride away (Php8-10). It's along one of the major roads and offers a free set of breakfast daily. Best to order the Filipino favorites: tocino/ longganisa/ danggit (dried fish)/ beef tapa; served... More

Reason to stay there was a promo offer for tours including hotel. That is great value for money. As a hotel on its own merits it is far too expensive for what it offers: Small rooms, meager breakfast, awful slow Internet. What does amaze me is that advertised rates on the tarpaulin differ from the inside charged rates: P 2100... More

First of all, thank you for availing our promo vouchers and recognizing that we offer great value for your money. Please refer to your group's booker (Ms. Fran...) for the room set-up, I've discussed this to her on the phone that time when she was making a reservation (hopefully to avoid this - room space complaints) that our room can...

Good location, accessible to all your needs... Staff are accomodating even on booking. Breakfast is good what you pay for and the tour great. Wifi si slow on room, you have to go out for access. Comment on bathroom: would be great if there is exhaust fan.

We had a peaceful and pleasant stay. The staff were helpful and courteous. Rooms adequate and good value for what you pay. A boutique hotel located one street back from the Main Street and everything is within walking distance.

Booked this place based on pictures from their website, and was greatly disappointed. Deposit made months ahead, but check in was very slow. Breakfast included on room rates, basic menu only. Staff was OK. Opted to transfer to a cheaper but way better Pension Inn (better ambiance better food choices, better staff service) as soon as we could.

We regret to hear that your experience with us was less than ideal. We apologize for any delays during your check-in. However, our hotel policy states that our check-in time is at 2pm (as in most other hotels). Regarding our breakfast options we provide a variety of options that reflects the typical Filipino breakfast. We do understand that we cannot... More
