The PEOPLE - both the staff and other travellers. Incredibly friendly and accommodating staff, they’d even remember your name and always greet you with a smile + they always make an effort to help socialise. Also met other super/likeminded travellers. Like that they have a restaurant/bar attached too

This hostel just opened up, it is really a hidden gem! The rooms are comfortable (4 beds in one room), the have a nice and big chill out area with a roof top and even a bar/restaurant where you can order meals and drinks, I only ordered one time but it was really good. What really made it a 10/10 for me was the staff! Everyone was so extremely friendly, helped me book all my tours, a scooter and took care of every question I had. I was greeted everyday with a smile and felt super welcome, I'd come back anytime! P.s. the owner (or employee?) even has two sweet, small dogs that chill in the area sometimes, they were a pleasure to meet 🤭

Perfect. Location is so convenient, close to airport, and city is quite near. It's on a street that has these small kiosks that sell everything you need, even an Italian pizzeria is just around the corner. Outside it might not look the best but inside it is so comfortable and nice to stay at. Curtains, AC, fans, outlets with adapter/light... free towel, 2 comfy pillows and a nice kitchen with free tea/coffee. Owner is super nice. Provides a key if you go out, no need for deposits. Cost is 315 if booked on person. Small toy ducks everywhere :D

This is a beautiful new accommodation just a 5/10 min tuk tuk from the main hustle bustle of el nido, so ideal to escape the chaos of the main town. The accommodation itself is really beautiful and you couldn't get any better staff looking after you. The shower facilities are the best I've experienced in the Philippines. If I'm ever back in el nido this is the only place for me to stay

Hostel new and have great new amenities,10 mins walking from centre but easily manageable. Rooms are dark so it keeps cool air in the room. If you want cheap nice room this is place to choose it from for short stop to El NIdo.
