Hotel was in a good location not far from a night market and malls. Room was clean with a very comfortable bed, duvet and lots of pillows. Fridge and air conditioning also in room. Breakfast was good. Water dispenser available also. Staff were friendly.

Very small room, however perfect for a 1 or 2 night stay. Good for solo travellers as was cramped with 2 people and lots of bags.

It's location is strategic. It's within downtown Cebu. You can easily go to food and shopping places just by walking. Our room and the entire hotel are also clean and well-maintained. The staff are also very kind and helpful.

The room is small, but it's just right for two people and if your purpose is just to rest and freshen up. It's a bit tough to ascend the stairs since there's no elevator, but it's good for exercise. The wifi is not strong enough to reach our floor (3rd floor),but that's ok if you have your mobile data.

Room was amazing. Small like in the pictures but perfect size for me. Bed was so comfortable. Good wifi. Kitchen will cook you anything off their menu, at any time! Great location, walking distance to a lot of places. Owners were so lovely and accomodating. Staff were all so nice and helpful. Whole place is brand new and I wish I was able to stay longer but they were booked out!!

Can be a little confusing to get there as it’s down a small lane way that most cars won’t fit down. It’s no issue, can be dropped at the end and walk 10-15m to get there.

Cleanliness. Be aware that a double room is short of space for 2 people, but will do the job right for a solo traveler. Don't hesitate to get in touch with the people at reception. They are very friendly and helpful if you need any tip. A TV with Netflix. Overall, It was nice having 2 relaxing, restful and comfortable nights for cheap in the course of a long trip... And this "hostel" does fulfill that duty very well Recommended!

Nothing particular I could point out.

1. I'm so lucky to be arranged at room 301(the other lucky room is 401)。 Due to I'm that kind of person must have a window to look out。 301 just next to exit, so I don't need to pull down the curtain all time to worry ppl will pass by。 But actually every floor only 4 rooms, should not many chance ppl will pass by 2. Wish the tv has local chanels

The hostel is inside a block, so it is very quiet. It is a new building, just started the business for a month. With aircon, refrigerator, microwave oven, TV, electric kettle, hot water in shower, comfortable bed, all cotton quilt, pillow and towel, made my stay an enjoy. The location is ideal. It is 850m to the south bus terminal, 1500m to ferry pier 1, 550m to the Basilica Minore del Santo Nino and Magellan’s Cross. Supermarket and central business streets are just one or two blocks away. The boss and staff are all very kind and helpful. With my experience in Philippines, though the room is not big, the price is the best value one can get, after stayed in Manila, Baquio, Banaue, Vigan and Tagbilaran. And also this is the only budget hotel to offer breakfast. By the way, I am the first guest to stay in the hostel through booking.com.

For the price and the service, I am not dared to ask for more

It is in the city center and walking distance to the stores and restaurants.

I saw a person (which i assume is a staff or owner? as he was holding a walkie talkie by the entrance door, a tall bald guy) kicking the stray cats outside! If you can't feed them, atleast don't hurt them please. You can just shoo them away, no need to kick them!

Helpful staff and comfy bed to get your head down. Hot showers and space for bags although a smaller room. Offers a basic breakfast of egg, toast and fruit. Fridge for drinks and water available at all times!

The ‘double’ bed was unfortunately not a double and our feet hung over the end a little. The glass window to the cafeteria was a little annoying with light shining through in the night.

We arrived of a late flight and when we got to to the hostel the gentleman on reception was very helpful and friendly . The room was beautiful and clean, very comfortable bed, good AC & WiFi and Netflix on the telly and a lovely hot shower which is rare in the Philippines. Breakfast included was great. Would highly recommend for a short stay in Cebu close to the airport & port so perfect for a stopover in Cebu city
