Dirty and claustrophobic
Reviewed By zedavimThe room I was given (room 106) doesn't reflect AT ALL the pictures or the description on the booking page. For starters, the ceiling is 1,85m meters high and it feels very claustrophobic. I've never in my life seen something like this, and I've been staying in different accommodations in the Philippines for one month. You'll see it on the pictures how I'm not exaggerating (keep in mind I'm 1,83m tall - 6 foot). Secondly, the room is full of stains, mold and dead bugs smashed against the ceiling (again, the ceiling is very low) that look disgusting. I asked the management to deep clean the room two days in a row, which made no difference because their cleaning standards are very low (or maybe they didn't even tried to clean it). Then I asked the admin employee (Jolly) to follow me to the room so I could show him the cleaning issues that the room had, so they could properly clean it. When I started pointing out the problems, he only repeated over and over "that is our standard room". Later he said that room was 4 years old and needed to be renovated, and there was nothing that could be done now. When he said that, I asked him how they could be renting the room if they knew it was not in good conditions, to which he suggested we should go back to the reception and talk to the manager. Back in the reception, Jolly went to an adjacent room to talk to the manager; I saw the manager was looking at him with a uninterested attitude and she didn't leave her chair or said not them 5 words to him. So Jolly came back to talk to me and said I could move to a triple or quadruple room if I paid the full difference. Basically his answer was give us more money. In the end, I moved to the other available standard room (room 101), which was in a better condition than the original one, but still has a 1,85m meters high ceiling and is literally 3 meters away from the restaurant, which serves breakfast at 6h30 (that means it's noisy early in the morning). By the way, both rooms have windows facing the corridors, so you'll never open the curtains, which makes everything even more claustrophobic. I proceeded to complain to Booking.com about the room condition, and a few hours later I was told by the front desk that the property offered to refund one night of my stay because of my complaint, to which I accepted. The following day, at 11h30 AM, Jolly sent an email via Booking.com saying that to get the refund I should leave the room immediately. In other words, they were not refunding me one night, they wanted to expel me from the hotel with 30 minutes notice. Save yourself some trouble and go to another of the numerous hotels in El Nido.
5. Pisces Garden & Tourist Inn

Accommodation with electricity whole night, private bathroom with hot and cold shower, common kitchen.
Alright, nothing amazing.
Reviewed By LukeysarbearHad barely any contact with the hosts here so can't judge them.. I'm not sure where the communal kitchen is as nobody showed us, room was not cleaned once in 6 days, though they found the time to switch off our AC so it was hot on our return. I know AC is expensive to run, but I'm paying for it I should be able to use it. Location is OK, handy enough for the beach etc. Rooms are clean (though I had to search for extra toilet roll) shower was OK too. Overall, it's nothing fancy, but it offers a bed for the night. We had decent WiFi (by Filipino standards) though I suspect this varies on where your room is located. There are probably better places in the area, but for AC with private bathroom it's not bad.

Welcoming place for medium budget travellers
Reviewed By istutiHashtag Tourist Inn is located in the center of PB, few minutes away from the busiest main center area. Hosts are welcoming and friendly. Rooms are clean, fan geared, but small. Do not expect to walk around your bed. Mattress is all right, on the thin range, neither comfortable, nor the opposite. Bathroom is convenient with hot shower which is useless to my opinion. It would be a better idea to provide guest with a couple of drinking water bottle daily as it is the usage all over Philipines. Breakfast is not included but may be ordered and served on each room individual terrace. WiFi is there network is not reliable. The lodge is overall quiet but may get slightly noisy by 7am when Port Barton wakes up due to bikes and car as it is set on a junction. Not a big deal though. Earplugs will do the trick. Compared to accomodations in the same price range I stayed in all over Philipines, I think Hashtag Tourist Inn is a good option considering you are 200m away from the beachfront. Just keep in mind that Port Barton is not a budget place for backpackers travelling on a shoestring. More tourists than travellers here.

Pleasant and Wonderful Stay
Reviewed By heyraheyraJust checkout this morning and we already miss the hospitality of your staff. Rooms are clean especially the bathroom. With free tea and coffee outside the room. Pros: Staff are all nice especially the guard. Cons: No signal for Globe subscribers. No internet connection.Wifi is not working inside the room. I think the issue is more on the location and they don't have control about it.

Average stay at an average hostel
Reviewed By Eloise WWe stayed at Laule’a hostel for one night on our way to our final location. The hostel was functional, clean and basic. It was a shame that the rooms did not have windows and although the hostel had been recently renovated, there was still building work going on. Also it’s important to note that rooms are up steep steps. Luckily enough, one of the Tuk Tuk drivers helped us with our bags, but it would have been difficult without him. We found the attitude of the staff at the hostel to be less hospitable than the service that we experienced in the rest of the Philippines. Overall was hostel was in a good location and we got what we paid for.
