Kayak Inn is a basic place to stay. It has bamboo huts and very basic bathroom/toilet with a bucket for a shower. In the garden there are a number of recycled metal hot tubs which Look good. I was there only one night. The mama who manages it was welcoming but didn't ask my name. Her daughters saw me to my room and brought me a mosquito net and set it up too. This should really be a permanent fixture in the rooms not a special request as its near the river. I didn't go kayaking as there isn't a guide. There's a man who runs along the river bank Instead. I did however decide to go to the waterfall. The mama said her 15 yr daughter would go with me. I didn't need anyone to go with me but she looked keen and I thought she wanted to practice her English so I said ok. In Tuno village I had to pay P50. Not a large amount but a surprise I wasn't told about. Then I was told that I would have to pay another 150 for a guide from the village. I offered to pay for the guide if he would only leave me alone and let me follow the easy and well worn track but he insisted on coming. So now I had to walk through lovely landscape looking at a man in a bright orange t shirt and a 15 yr old girl neither of whom I actually wanted or needed. The waterfall was unremarkable and on the way back I persuaded the man to leave me and go back to the village but I couldn't shake the girl off. She kept waiting for me around every corner and wouldn't go home. That Spoilt the whole for me. The mama cooked me nice dinner and when it came to pay the price was very reasonable. However as I was leaving she asked me whether I had tipped her daughter for taking me to the waterfall. That left a nasty taste and it seems they are pleasant to you only if its financially beneficial to them. It's a family who manages this place and at time there can be anything up to 12 kids hanging around. Probably wouldnt

The location is good since it is very near to transport terminals. Kuya Arvin (the owner) was very accomodating and was more than willing to help us enjoy our stay in Antique that time. He even insisted on trying all the possible attractions in Antique to make our stay worthwhile. The room was decent, not as good as regular hotels and resorts but it's enough for us that time. Internet connection was actually unbelievably fast though you'll only get the connection until second floor. All is well except for the low water pressure in the CR which made bathing a little uneasy.
