          I just needed to leave my bags for overnight. I didn't sleep here but I did rest for an hour or two. Aircon is well and functioning. Room is spacious and okay but it obviously need repairs here and there. I encountered a small rat in the bathroom and later on a roach on the floor of the room. Maybe the other rooms are better than what I had?????

          Room is dirty, I guess the bed sheet has been used many times by different persons. AC is not that cool and it's very dim inside.

          I don't recommend this pension house. The room was spacious but it's very dirty. The CR is awful with cockroaches roaming around. It could have been okay if it's clean. The hallway is creepy. I really thought of not staying the night there but it was raining so hard.

          Not recommended”

          Place was near downtown. Hard to find and you have to look for the name carefully as you are passing. If we were not using Waze we would not have known we arrived. As we were going up to the place, it looked dirty and smelled already. The receptionist did not look professional although he was friendly and said that we could check out the rooms first as we were having second thoughts about staying the night. We checked out the rooms and they did not look like they did on the photos. The place was dark and low lighted in the room. I know it was cheap and that’s probably the value for money but I stayed in cheaper rooms in Manila but they did not look like the ones here. No pictures of the bathroom was shown but it did not look clean. We booked 2 rooms as we were on a family trip and wanted to stay overnight and head back to Iloilo next day. We decided not to stay there and leave but my uncle, his wife and mother in law (all senior citizens) were tired and bunkered for the night. Me and the rest left and looked for another place to stay the night which happened to be just within walking distance. 1 room was not used at all but we decided to just leave it as it was non refundable. More photos should have been posted with regards to the facilities. I’ve booked with agoda a lot of times already for the same priced rooms and those I rebooked on another stay. But this one, I would definitely stay out of.

          The dirtiest hotel we have ever stayed!Clogged CRs, dirty and rusty faucets, and a lot more ewwness.”

          There are hotels with the same tariff rates but are way better off than this pension house. Kadiri talaga to! Maski palitan lang sana yung mga gripo, sobrang luma na. clogged ang floor ng CR. sobrang dumi ng floor tiles. sira ang balde, at yung tabo, andumi-dumi.

          Dirty. I did not expect it would be that way. I know it's cheaper compared to others but still unacceptable.
