4/10 Fair

Ok.
The room was ok. But the Bathroom/Toilet was not. Water stays on the floor due to leakage from the bathroom and floor wasnt leveled. The mirror was dirty as if it wasnt cleaned for a while. The aircondition was full of dirt. I was disappointed as well that the location was not the same with what they have shown on the map in Hotels.com. and they also said there that it is a 10 minute walk to SM but it wasnt. It actually 2km away from SM.

Fooled by the maps.
Once again i was fooled by hotels. It showed me 1 location on the map with, but when i got there it was nothing. Had to find the adress of the hostel and get another taxi there. Overall the hostel was clean.

Sojourn in Cebu
Entering the hostel is not that good. Reception area is far from the main door. And you might have to wait for the door to be opened by the staff as it is locked sometimes. Not all staffs are friendly and helpful. Some will help you with stuffs and some will just ignore you even if you're carrying two bags and one big box. I passed 3 staffs just sitting there at the reception area busy with their phones, they must be happy to have free wifi. And there are no available towels in the room, you have to request it. There is no telephone too to request for toilet paper if ever you'll run out of it. GG if you're in the top floor and need to go downstairs. And big problem, there's no water in the upper floor. You must secure rooms in the 1st-3rd floors. There are no lockers inside the room too. The location of the hotel is great. The price is relatively low too.

Decent hostel for a night or two
It's great if you need to go to the airport or do the visa extension on the BOI of Cebú. Really close from the shuttle to the airport (walking distance). The staff was very nice and helpful, there was ac on the room and the bunk beds were OK. Probably staying here again before taking the plane back in the cebu airport.

Friendly staff, good budget option for backpackers
Decent place for the budget traveler, though wifi rarely works well and there's usually no toilet paper in the restrooms, not water to flush. Super friendly and helpful staff, though, and they have aircon rooms! Cute decor and next door to a "mall" with good food (especially Tequi La La pulled pork tacos).

Unexpectedly good
I really loved the atmosphere of the place. Friendly and helpfull staff, there really care about their guests. There are nice common areas on every floor where you can almost always find somebody to socialize. The rooms are small but clean. I was also ugraded to air-con room which was totally nice.

좁은 숙소. 좋은 위치
좁은 숙소. 많은 사람들. 청결하지도 않지만. 좋은 위치에 그럭저럭 지낼만 했습니다. 2층 침대가 삐걱거리고 소리가 나서 잘 때 안 좋았어요

フレンドリーなスタッフのいるホテル
スタッフがとてもフレンドリーで、いろいろと助けてくれた。 入り口が少しわかりにくいので時々通り過ぎたりしてしまった　笑 １０人ドミに泊まったがダブルブキングなのか夜中の三時にスタッフや他のゲストが入れ替わり部屋に訪れて少し騒がしかった…多分ゲストの人数管理とかが少し甘いんだと思うけど、個人的にはスタッフの印象が良かったのでプラスマイナイスゼロだと思ってる。外に洗濯物干して出かけていたら雨が降ってきて、慌てて戻ったらスタッフが洗濯物を屋根があるところまで移動しておいてくれたりしたのでとても助かったし、嬉しかった。

部屋が臭い以外は快適
3日間滞在したが、ゲストハウス自体は清潔感もあり快適。特に共用キッチンはこまめに掃除されているため、清潔な状態が保たれていた。宿泊者が自由に使える冷蔵庫もあり、長期滞在者には良いかもしれない。また、シャワーは水圧も十分で熱いお湯がちゃんと出た。しかしながら、私が泊まったドミトリーの部屋は宿泊者の体臭が染み付いているせいなのか非常に汗くさかった。においに敏感な方はかなりきになるかも…部屋が臭かった以外は良いゲストハウスなんだけどね。

Not that good
We did not enjoy this stay too much. The rooms feel closed and the air is bad. We did not have a window in our room. Beds are not too comfortable, and you sleep very close to other people. The location is not that good either, the only "attraction" closeby was the SM mall. Staff is nice enough, and they keep the rooms and common areas clean. Would not really recommend this place
