Puerto Princesa Hostels

"Im so delighted with the staff who provided me amazing service and hospitality. Kudos to NINA, Walter and to all staff who made me feel welcomed and valued. I will certainly be back. Room is clean and has cool AC. Quiet and homey place to stay. Just 1 ride from airport and nearby tourist spots"

"It's unclear who came up with the idea of building a hostel inside a restaurant. The doors and walls are made of OSB, so the rooms constantly smell of food. There's always noise outside, so you can only rest when the restaurant isn't open. While hostel guests try to maintain silence during the day and especially in the evening, the restaurant and hostel staff simply don't care, and they can talk loudly until midnight. The girl who works the reception desk in the evening is incredibly stupid; she can't understand or answer even a basic question. Also, two days before my departure, I asked for an airport transfer, and even though it was 50 pesos more expensive than the tricycles outside, I agreed because I wanted to be sure they would definitely pick me up since I was booking a tricycle from the hostel. I reminded them of this request the evening before my departure; I was leaving early in the morning. In the end, no tricycle arrived; the night manager said, ”Tricycle not available.” WHAT??? I ended up having to catch a tricycle in the dark on the road because I had no idea how long it would have taken if I'd called one through an app. The hostel itself isn't bad, but the staff's lackadaisical attitude immediately lowers my rating."

"Pros: checked in early, early in the morning. Great location, 5m to the shopping center, 10 minutes walk, 20 minutes from the airport. Cons: the bed linen before my check-in, it seems, was not changed, there is hair on the sheet and pillow, the towel is brown. There is no soap in the bathroom, only lukewarm water comes out of the tap. The single room is very small, it is impossible to sleep with the air conditioner on, it blows directly on the bed. There is no reception as such, I did not find anyone to voice all my questions to"

"Malinis naman bawal nga lang kumain ng food sa room."

"Cozy spacious rooms, friendly and helpful stuff and an amazing rooftop area, very much recommended."
