Prima standaard privé kamer, groot bed met airco!
Badkamer viel bijna uit elkaar, waterdruk in de douche nihil. Prima voor 1 nacht maar niet voor langer.

Zeer nette kamer en een goede keuken.
De kosten voor het huren van een scooter. Er wordt wegbreng en ophaalkosten bererkend alsmede voor de helm. Best vreemd.

Locatie perfect voor Ferry de volgende dag.
Personeel was niet erg vriendelijk. Lekkende kraan in badkamer.

地理位置很好,距离市内景点和码头都很近。
隔音完全没有!所有声音听的一清二楚。半夜2点来了一帮韩国人,大人喊小孩儿闹,吵到无法睡觉,酒店前台也没有制止。

I like that the hotel was situated on the quiet side of town and away from the traffic. It was also 8-10 mins walk from Sto. Nino Cathedral.
I stayed at the female dorm and I’d imagine climbing up the top bed can be challenging for others. Also, shower facilites are maintained well but hard to get dressed on a wet floor.

Great breakfast, nice people. Location: 10 minute walk to the ferry station.
Rooms are not soundproof so noise seeps in, especially early morning when staff start working

Waren nur eine Nacht (optimal wenn man zum Pier muss)
Im Deluxe Zimmer war Schimmel an der Decke im Bad und im Schlafzimmer! WC Spülung defekt. Pizzaofen defekt! Keine Veggie Optionen! Den ganzen Tag lief Avril Lavigne und Taylor Swift in Dauerschleife das war fast am schlimmsten!

Ontwerp van de kamers beneden.
Ondanks de zo leuke kamers beneden was onze kamer no2 na een douche nemen zo’n 2 cm water dat bleef staan op de vloer. Let wel de hele badkamervloer. Onhygiënisch en zo makkelijk op te lossen met een strip tussen de douch en de rest van de badkamer.

Proche du port à pieds
Chambre à la décoration moderne mais odeur de moisi, énormes traces de moisissure au plafond, énormes fissures un peu partout sur les murs, mais le pire est l’insonorisation, si vous souhaitez passer la nuit éveillé, prenez cet hôtel !

El hotel en general muy bien, habitaciones grandes, buen aire acondicionado y cerca del puerto
Imposible dormir!!! Eramos un grupo de 6 personas, 3 habitaciones reservadas, no pudimos dormir. La recepcion es un bar que tienen abierto toda la noche. El ruido era inaguantable, me puse tapones ni asi podia dormir. Me levante a la 1 de la madrugada a pedir a un grupo de chinos que por favor bajasen la voz, a las dos am mis amigos de la habitacion de al lado tambien tuvieron que salir a pedir silencio! Imposible, hasta las 3 am que acabaron la fiesta los chinos no pudimos dormir y nos teniamos que levantar a las 6 am para coger el ferry
A todo esto la recepcionista a su bola sin mediar nada, alucinante!!

Petit déjeuner sur place avec vrai café.
Fuites dans la salle de bain.
Poignée de porte endommagée (va t elle encore s'ouvrir?)

The property has an excellent location when you want to visit tourist and heritage sites such as: Magellan’s Cross (3 blocks away), Basilica Minore de Sto. Niño de Cebu (3 blocks away), Plaza Independencia ;2 blocks away) Fastfood Chains (Chowking, Joklibee, Mcdo just 3 blocks away), Banks, National Museum of the Philipines, and it is just a few minute ride from Rohinsons Galleria and SM City Cebu.
Moreover, the facilty offers a restaurant and an ATM once you enter the property. It id very convenient for guests. The food is great too with big servings! It’s just a bit pricey.
As per the rooms, the dormitory room is airconditioned which is good. The bunk beds hve curtains for your privacy. I had a restful sleep for 3 nights.
The staff are also nice and respondent to my querries.
The neighboring houses and buildings look a bit sketchy— dark street with busy people and vendors, and some “tambays” outside the property. A bit noisy too.
Also, the common bathroom is a bit dark, a little unsanitary, and the flush sometimes do not work.

Super gehorig. We hadden privekamer op begane grond en hoorde alle muziek de hele avond door. Daarnaast werden we de hele nacht en ochtend continu wakker door pratende mensen bij de receptie. Badkamer was heel nat en vies toen we inchecken en de dekens leken niet gewassen. Rondom de hostel veel armoede en zwervers (kan het hostel niets aan doen, maar haf slechte sfeer).

Удобное расположение у паромного терминала. Есть холодная и горячая вода. Хороший кондиционер и WiFi
Рассчитывали на заявленную в букинге стиральную машину, как одну из причин, почему выбран именно этот отель - надо было постирать я после предшествующих поездок. Её не только нет, но и поблизости вообще нет прачечных.
В номере нет окна и приточной вентиляции, а вытяжная вентиляция только в туалете и работает при включённом свете. Пришлось держать все время (и ночью) дверь приоткрытой, а свет в сортире включённым.
Мыло совершенно не мылилось- такое впечатление, что оно из пластмассы. Хорошо, что было свое.

Light in the hallway was on the whole night for no reason en the room had a window above the door for no reason…
It also had bedbugs
6.0
The room size was fine and the location seemed good. It was helpful to have the cafe downstairs to order food, though there were not many breakfast options.
There was a window up high to the hallway in my room and a light outside in the hallway so my room was flooded with light all night. Luckily I had an eye mask. The rooms are very basic. There was no soap in the bathroom even to wash my hands. There was only a thin blanket on the bed.

Clean and nice hostel with comfy beds and spacious bathroom with clean showers with hot water. There is a restaurant at reception with some options (no vegan option) and space to sit inside and outside. A 5 min walk to pier 1 where you take the ferry to Bohol and Siquijor. Stayed one night as not much to do in Cebu. The hostel also organized tours and trips.
The ac was a bit too cold in my dorm. Got sick after.

ロケーションがすごく良い
Bohol島へ行くフェリー乗場のPier1、空港のあるMactan島とを結ぶ渡船乗場のPier3、Cebuの主な観光地であるサント・ニーニョ教会やサン・ペドロ要塞、繁華街のColon street、これらすべてに近く真ん中あたりにある
歩いてすぐのところに洗濯屋もあり、3時間ほどで仕上げてくれる
シャワー、トイレも使いやすかった
細かいことですが、無料のタオル貸しやシャンプー、ボディソープがないのはともかく、洗面台にペーパータオルはあって欲しかった

Everything we needed for a stop over before an early flight. Comfy bed, good room, hot water
It was so loud in the morning! It sounded like they a massive group of people in the bar area right by our room. Don’t stay if this would bother you
7.0
Very comfy and large bed. Everything was clean and had no major issues. Good location to get to the pier but not much going on around the hostel itself.
Noise travels along the lower corridor so it was incredibly loud in our room. Staff were awake from 6am and moving around, so would recommend earplugs even if staying in private rooms. Aircon was a little spotty at times.
9.0
Beds were comfortable, warm showers, good location to get to ferry as well as buses to get around the city
Not the hostel fault but my room had guests that were talking very loudly on the phone in the middle of the night.

Super close to the ferry
Guys, please clean the bathroom, it was so dirty the shower space that doesn’t make any sense
I know it’s kinda complicated but if you clean everyday wouldn’t be dirty like that. And I know that you don’t clean everyday because I stayed two days in a row
The staff is kind but dont know information about the city

Ac in the room
Room D2 - Tv not working, electric sockets by bed not working, we asked to exchange dirty duvet, but they refused to even check it and see, refused to exchange it.
Around hostel - very dirty surroundings.
We waited for breakfast 40minutes so make sure you have time.

Great location, food available on site

It is located at the heart of the city and accessible to anywhere you want to visit.
It is not soundproof, I mean I could hear what’s happening outside and even just the normal conversation of people.

i liked the hostel there
all good
nothing to talk about
9.0
I chose it becuase it is very close to the pier where you take ferry. The food was very good and the prices were cheap. The bed slept very well and the AC cooled the room nicely.
Only small downside (only 1) was that you could hear other people within the building, as I had the Deluxe room. Otherwise, no negative comment

Nice staff, good location, good breakfast options in cafe
very noisy guests, kept us awake talking in the corridor for much of the night, even after we made our presence known they continued talking loudly. No sound proofing in rooms

It was a very clean room and the bed is comfy. Staff was friendly and helpful. Loved the food as well. Close to the pier, and good for staying a night before heading elsewhere.

•Wifi was fast enough
• Netflix and YouTube were available
• To Inform us the AC is not working upon our checkin (17:30). Instead they offered free breakfast, but still if they could inform us earlier that will be better. That will give us more choices to make.
• No AC, they provide the fan, it’s not too hot, acceptable, but because there is no AC, so the room got strange smell and humidity is high!
• The bath room and toilet area was big, but drain holes don't drain water quickly, so our bath room and toilet area was flooded.
•The echo of the building is so loud that when someone sing and speak clearly back to the room! I show my response to the counter at 23:00, but there were still people talking at 24:00

good location & confortable bed, nice common area
a lot of noise at night as the wall between the room are very thin
you have to pay for the towel (50 pesos)
