Be aware of VAT scam

This hostel has everything you need really and it is right where you want to be.

Be aware that if you use booking.com for this hostel, they will charge you extra, so better book directly via them. It feels kind of like a scam because they make it look like a VAT, which it isn't, they are just passing on the booking.com commission, but they don't declare it when you book.

Very Good

Great location. Clean. Comfortable beds. Attractive decor. Good variety for breakfast. (Not included) We did tour A with them and it’s definitely the most fun tour operator in the area.

Very loud music every evening after the tours return. It’s big fun but if you really need your peace and quiet then this is not your place. It goes quiet at around 11.

Nice hostel but be aware of the "tax-scam"

The room had two queen size beds, towels were provided and we had a private bathroom and obviously AC. The towels were nicely arranged on the bed. But nothing that swept me off my feet.

There was some hair laying around here and there, but that wasn't too dramatic. Also if you book via booking.com they will put the booking.com commission on top of your booking and declare it as a tax, so you end up paying more and because they declare it as a tax (which it isn't) booking.com doesn't do anything about it. But you are better off booking the hostel directly via their website.

Great option

Very comfortable rooms and great facilities. Tours were fun and well organised. Great place to meet people.

Bathrooms require updating - shower head was at waist height, so needed to be held above head the entire time, and the bathrooms just look/smell a bit funky.

Great place. Too noisy at night

Great stay. However, this is a party hostel and it was a bit noisy at night, so bring ear plugs if you are planning on sleeping early. Definitely join the tours with Haqqy downstairs next to the reception. The guys there literally made my entire trip.

The hostel is super social, they organize events every night so it's easy to meet people. The rooms are comfy and the food in the restaurant downstairs is good!! They have a pool and bar on the rooftop with the best view and the location is perfect.

Exceptional

The place was absolutely fantastic and offered everything from a clean, compatible room to tours, food, pool and bar, restaurant. For such a complete package, the prices where a bit high for a hostel.

Great atmosphere. Definitely, one of the best accommodations in El Nido

The room is spacious and clean and the bed is comfortable! The location is perfect because the hostel is just in the center of El Nido and everything is close by. The rooftop is awesome to relax after the boat tours - it has a great view to the Bacuit Bay, a swimming pool and a bar. Staff is friendly.

Most annoying thing is the tour briefing hosted by Haqqy Life (tour company) inside the hostel every morning! There is a guy yelling (literally) and waking up everyone who is still sleeping. Why does he need to do that inside the hostel? Why can't a briefing be done at the beach or in the boat just after boarding? Next to that, WiFi didn't work well inside the room, but that was not a surprise.

Superb

Location is amazing, staff is super friendly, the tours were awesome, food is yummy, rooftop with different events every night was really fun. And bathrooms were always pleasant, in a hostel is not always a given! I would totally recommend.

I was a bit disappointed that I wasn't warned that they make your bed everyday, even in the shared rooms. I left some minor stuff on my bed, e.g. a make-up bag and some souvenirs, and my make up was broken and one souvenir disappeared (I guess they also broke it when making the bed and threw it away). Nothing big, but annoying. Specially because make-up isn't the easiest thing to replace in the Philippines....

Rooms are quite dark, Ac not very strong and Lockers too small to fit a large backpack. Bedroom door was never closed or locked by others in the room, need to lock up your belongings at all times
