Place is good and clean. Location is good. Staff will do anything to help however, I’m a little fussy, i found it very noisy and smelly. But perfect for a short stay.

We had a delightful stay at Talisay Boutique for 4 nights. At first we were a little nervous as it appeared to be on the main road, but quickly discovered it is perfectly positioned for everything you need, so no need for taxis or transport to the centre and away from the busyness of the main strip of restaurants. The girls on reception were super accommodating, even giving us a hairdryer for our stay. Every day we were given fresh towels and drinking water replenished which after a long day on a tour was very welcomed! The room itself was small but perfectly adequate - the bathroom is partially outdoors therefore technically the room doesn’t have a fully enclosed wall from the elements, but this was not an issue to us. There were windows with no curtains up high on the walls, which meant would be light in the morning but again (and surprisingly for a light sleeper like myself), this didn’t effect us. Like other reviews, it is rather noisy on the road, but we heard absolutely nothing from any of the other rooms (there are only 5 so very small!), and did not find that it disturbed our sleep. Tea and coffee facilities available at all hours at reception, as well as a 24 hour receptionist/ security. If you’re looking for somewhere convenient with great service for a very reasonable price, Talisay is the place to go.

If you’re a light sleeper and bothered by traffic noise, I’d suggest bringing ear plugs - but surprisingly even as a light sleeper it didn’t actually bother me, but a warning!
