Great room for the price”
Locationwise its great, its near the park and a lot of other places like 7/11 and restaurants. Price is really good for the room. Good place, no smokers. Might not be that inviting due to vehicles parked at the front of the building but that is fine. Its also a slight walk from the road, good because its not noisy but may not also be great for those who dont like walking. They dont offer free water but you can buy it at the counter.

Get what you pay for”
All in all the Pension House is not bad, but O would recommend spending a bit more money for something a bit nicer. The room smelled of sewage, the aircon was on the bed head and was difficult to sleep with and the staff did not like that we wanted an early check-out. However, for a short stay I would recommend for the price.

Acceptable”
this place is not worth the price location and room amenity wise. a bit out of the way. with residential/boarding houses as next door neighbours. very small room.

Great budget stay”
Everything was great! There's not much to complain about. Aircon is weirdly placed just next to your head and rooms are quite tiny. But for the price, its perfect. We used it as our base to explore adventures around Dumaguete and this was perfect place for it. Definitely recommend! :)

Very nice hotel”
We have been one night the first time before going to Siquijor and the place is nice and very well located. It was very clean also. After Siquijor we came back to stay one night because we liked Dumaguete and the hotel.

Clean rooms, near the city center, AC”
If you're looking for a quick stay in Dumaguete, this hotel is one of the best places to stay. No non-sense accommodation. You get what you need for a short stay.

Nice and new but overpriced”
Booked on Agoda. This was one of the few hotels tat had two vacant rooms- I booked for myself and a friend. The hotel is nice and new but the price is above average for the quality. Similar room can be had for 2/3 of the price. The monthly rate seems to be a bargain, but the nightly rate is expensive. No comparison between the two. Pricing should be adjusted.Staff is sleepy and left room keys on the counter. Close to the city but a little bit tricky to find. Mobile reception is terrible, as is wifi.

Good for a night or two ”
Clean room, not very big. Wifi didn't connect in my room and I also had a weak cell signal here so using the internet was difficult, but that's normal for PI. COLD water in that shower too. I agree with some other reviewers that staff seemed "sleepy". Maybe they're overworked. Apparently they also have a no alcohol and no guest policy, which I found a little strange, but I doubt it's that heavily enforced. Overall decent value if you're just looking for a room for a few days tops.

Value for money accommodation”
The pension house is quite new so we were happy with their rate. But when it comes to cleanliness our room's bath smelled weird as if they're using deep-well water. The staff were quite friendly and accommodating which made our stay all more pleasant. Location is a bit far from places of interest but since trike fare is cheap it wasn't a bother for us. Would recommend it to anyone.

OK for a couple of nights”
The room is a little bit small but typical in this price range. There are other places that are more central with larger rooms for the same price offering better value. However, room was clean and in renovated condition. Aircon blows from the bedhead and it's an unfortunate design. A small towel stuck into the vents worked OK. Channel selection on the flat screen was decent, as was CR size. No phone signal in room but WiFi worked good enough. Nothing extraordinary to report but it will do..

Good place for short stay.”
Staff are accomodating. Rooms were small but it's OK for the price. Location is good since it is very near the hiway. Hot shower wasnt working during our stay.

Bed bugs and unhelpful crew”
We checked-in late after a full day in Bais and we were greeted by a room with no hot shower. A few minutes after lying down in the bed, the whole half of my face and and full back started itching. After 15 minutes it has spread to my arms and chest, we decided to ask the front desk for the nearest hostpital, thankfully Siliman University Hospital is a few streets away. We were advised that I may have had severe reaction to the bed bugs in the hotel and advised us to change hotels or ask for new rooms. After a few hours in the emergency room, we walked back to the hotel, asked for a new room and though the staff did allow us to move, no one helped us in preparing the room and moving our things. We had to ask for additional blankets to cover the bed just to make sure. If the staff were much more helpful during the ordeal, we would have been okay with the experience as this was a pension house, but there was barely any assistance given to us. No apologies were provided either. I recommend you check other properties with the similar price range as this was just not worth all the trouble.

Not Recommended”
Only booked this room because we travelled as a group and our companions were on a budget. If you have more budget, dont book this hotel! It’s too small!!!!!!!!!!!! To be fair to the hotel, nothing against them. You just to literally need to manage expectations.

Very good”
Staff were really nice and accommodating. Rooms we got were spacious enough. How I wish though that it’s just walking distance from Rizal Blvd where most of the eats are. No hot shower.
