Die Unterkunft ist ausreichend für eine Nacht für die Weiterreise. Es ist alles vorhanden was man braucht - ist allerdings etwas entfernt vom touristischen Leben. Drumherum gibt es zwar einiges, tendenziell aber eher Local.
Leider gibt es keine direkte Möglichkeit für elektrische Geräte, diese direkt am Bett aufzuladen. Man müsste diese beim Eingang des Zimmers dranhängen, welches jedoch nicht wirklich abzuschließen ist.

Sehr freundliche Mitarbeiter, saubere und gemütliche Betten, gutes Frühstück. Waschräume ebenso sehr sauber
Lage nachts für eine Alleinreisende (Frau) etwas düster, besser trycicle nutzen

📍Perfect location for one night. Free water, near Robinson Malls and cheap super stores.
📍You can directly book El Nido/Port Barton Van rides from reception. The van will pick you up from the hostel.

i stayed for one night to take the recaro van to port barton. the hostel was good overall.
you have to pay to use towels. also, the bunk beds were kinda wobbly. the person on the lower bunk was being so loud and moving so much that I felt like I was on a ship. {but that's mostly out of the hostel's control.}
4.0 / 5.0
Very quiet hostel away from the city center. The placement is not the best, but I had a scooter, so it didn't matter. Beds are comfy. Common area is small, but chill.
Bathrooms were tiny and not comfy. Placement is bad if you don't have a bike/scooter.
5.0 / 5.0
Amazing host and ready to help whenever needed and the hostel clean, good breakfast (not included), and a very nice chill area.
A bit faraway from the City but you can take a jeepney for 12-15 pesos from the main Street.

Friendly staff, good location, good price, nice garden with water to refill bottles.
Couldn’t connect to Wi-Fi , no power plug near my bed, no blanket and I was cold from air conditioning.

The room and facilities were really clean and looked nice. The bed was comfortable. The owner was the nicest and helped me a lot with changing my van to Port Barton for an earlier one as well as arranging a pick up from the hostel. I can recommend staying here.
For me the location was good (easy access to the immigration office) except that the bus/van station was just recently changed location further away from the hostel. So if you book this place to stay near the station, do note that it has changed location. But the owner was very helpful with telling me about the change as soon as I arrived and arranging the pick up from the hostel so I didn't have to go to the station myself.
3.5 / 5.0
Staff is really nice. Free coffee and water. They provide you with lockers for your belongings. Not so far from a great restaurant called Swag (best grilled chicken tried in my life). Rooms provided with A/C. Nice hang out area.
It is not exactly in the center, A bit tricky to move around in the evening as there is no illumination on the road to get back to town. It might even be dangerous to walk.
When I arrived there was no water.

clean and modern hostel and close to the bus garage if you need to head up to el Nido
I wouldn’t recommend booking your van tickets with them. Just head straight to the bus garage it’s cheaper. We booked through them and paid more as we were told it’d only be us and others staying at the hostel so we’d head straight up to El Nido. we spent an hour and a half driving round picking other people up before we started our journey so it wasn’t quicker.

The lady who works here is fantastic, very helpful and makes sure we are safe and if we need anything she’ll help! Also very clean!
It’s a little out the way of Rizal street which is where it’s busiest, but it’s still easy to get a ride there and back.
4.5 / 5.0
- well equipped
- Compfy beds
- very helpful nice staff
- drinking water supply
- a bit far from airport if you don't want to take a private taxi :P but near the main street. So location is ok
3.0 / 5.0
Staff helped out the best they could. Beds were comfy, air conditioning and hot shower too. Free water refill.
No plugs by the bed, no bed light and had to pay extra for towel and blanket. Staff gave the wrong time for an early morning departure, not the time of day you want to wait extra! No food around or supermarkets - nothing in the area.
4.5 / 5.0
Even in the shared room, with the curtain you keep your space and this is appreciated! Also the people and the vibes are really nice! You have a locker to keep your things safe. You can rent a motorbike with them but tell them before, so they can arrange it for you, the same as the tour to el Nido.
5.0 / 5.0
Although it's a bit far from the centre of Puerto Princess, it's very nice to stay there for a few days. People staying here are cool and you can also rent a motorbike with them.
