“Very affordable but still functional”
The location was great and accessible. Really liked the aesthetics of the hostel as well. Industrial, simple, but still with some local influences. The staff were flexible and accommodating enough to move us to another room after we mentioned that it was too loud in our first room.

“Meh..😒”
I only stayed here for one night because it is close to the airport. Unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing. The air conditioning was set extremely cold, almost like a refrigerator and I couldn’t adjust it to a warmer temperature. Because of this, the room was uncomfortably cold throughout the night. On top of that, the building is very noisy. I could clearly hear people walking on the floor above, and it was quite disturbing. I also had a roommate who made a lot of noise very early in the morning while packing. There are supposed to be quiet hours, but these were not respected. I think it’s important that staff clearly emphasize the quiet hours during check-in to avoid this kind of situation. Additionally, the bedding was inadequate. The blanket was extremely thin, more like a sheet and provided no warmth at all. Even wearing my sweater wasn’t enough to stay warm. Overall, I had a very cold and unpleasant night.

“Nice facilities, little atmosphere”
Nice industrial style. Very safe. Staff met me sleep in a different dorm at no extra charge when I couldn’t sleep because a man was snoring very loud

They lost the laptop I deposited at the counter since they have no lockers. When I asked for them to review the cctv, after a few hours they said the cctv is not working. This is not a safe place for you or your belongings. The price is inviting but don't let it fool you. The cost would be bigger than what you paid for. Better look somewhere else safer and more decent.

The jungle vibe of the place is amazing. And also palmita bar and cuisine is great. The staff from the bar were amazing,had a great chat about dumaguette siliman university(the first American university). Highly recommend if you don't mind walking 10-15 minutes to rizal bulevard

The bed is big enough and comes with a curtain for some privacy. While it doesn’t fully cover the entire space, you can easily use your towel for extra coverage while it’s drying. The hostel has a cool industrial-style design, and at the same time, it makes you feel close to nature. It’s located near a busy road, so there can be some noise, but overall, I still had a pleasant and comfortable stay.

“Good”
I like its location and the value for money. The staff was very kind and helpful. You can drop your bag with them since we arrive early to hotel and leave early to start for the tour.

“Very good location and Wifi but security deposit required”
I like the affordability, location and the wifi amenity. Also Palmitas is just beside this hostel and nearby resto, store and massage center.

“Exceptional value for a dorm hostel and great customer service from staff 😊 thank you”
A perfect overnight stay for the airport (5min door to door). Cafe/ restaurant on site with attached bakery, so you can technically eat at any time of your arrival. Hotel also gave 10% off voucher for breakfast the morning of my departure. Very friendly and welcoming staff, on hand all times of day. Immaculately clean. Love the industrial, modern, loft style. Even better than the photos. The bunks are the largest and most comfortable of my stay so far.
