The place is clean and complete amenities. The staff is accommodating and friendly including the security guards and the maintenance team. They have their own laundry, cafeteria and convenience store inside the building. It is also safe here because the gate is accessible with the keycard and well guarded. I highly recommend this place.

I had conflicts with my hotel bookings and end-up staying at this hostel instead. I stayed at the men’s room good for 4. We were only three during the stay. One was a foreigner from London and the other one is a Pinoy from Tacloban who was in Bohol for the international fun run and who was a loud snorer. Oh life in a hostel. But overall, the stay is still good considering the cheap price.

Wonderful hostel, with lovely and responsive staff! There's a kitchen, comfortable beds (I slept like a log), an en-suite shower, a quiet air conditioner, and no smell in the room (though there was a pretty strong cat odor on the first floor). I've stayed here twice. It was great to come back to the same room after two months of traveling around the Philippines! The location is good too! It's a 7-minute scooter ride to the port and about 30 minutes by car to the airport. Thank you! I definitely recommend it!

The common areas are spacious, with travel books and board games on the shelves. In the evenings, people often gather to chat and watch movies, making it a great place for solo travelers to meet new friends. The bedding is changed for each guest, and the restrooms and showers are cleaned daily, so there are no unpleasant smells. The bunk beds have curtains, offering good privacy.

Good airport. Our flight from Puerto Princesa arrived without delay, and we only had to wait about 10 minutes for our luggage. The airport has many different cafes and shops. There's a bus that goes to the Lapu-Lapu area every 5 minutes (MI-05) and costs 15 pesos.

Mixed Experience at Isa-Hostel Cons - not very helpful staff at check in, no information or orientation to the hostel (e.g., breakfast, services etc.). The door to the shared dorm room didn't work properly, no one could get in or out, so whoever was in the room would have to let people in (all through the night) or the door was often left open (as we couldn't really close it when leaving) and there are no lockers for valuables and the locked drawers offered are a bit of a joke. Located very central, which means also very loud music playing till early morning, barely slept even with earplugs in. Pros - they take pride in keeping all areas clean, in the rooms, common areas and especially the bathrooms. Bathroom showers could use some door hooks to keep clean clothes or towels dry. The morning breakfast is simple but nice, they even accommodated me for breakfast even though I was technically too late. Centrally located.

There are always staff members wearing orange T-shirts on duty, so you can feel safe. The air conditioning was on properly, so I was able to stay comfortable. Thank you very much.

The location near Dumaluan Beach is like a 10-minute walk while it's quite far from alona Beach. It's more on a quiet side compared to other hostels. The room was ok, it was clean and the bed was comfy. It's has great facilities like billiards and pool. The food was also great with big portions, staff were friendly and helpful. Overall, it is recommended and value hor money.

Not just a Public hostel. Very Clean. Slippers are provided so it lessen my baggage. You have to set an alarm or else youll be late. The black out, cool, serene place room will make you sleep like a baby 😆. Big comfort room with free use of blower, shampoo, liquid soap, and a lot of tissues. ☺ I got free drink, the cold green juice, a tea and a coffee the following day. Staff are friendly and ready to serve your request. Txs for adding value through your business.

AAina M. L. LoronaI had a hot, uncomfortable disappointed, and we were in utter shocked that the room I booked was not in their system. As I was rebooking, it was not the same as the first booking then blacked out occured. During the blacked out the my booking end up with only a bed in dorm style quarters, public bathroom and no privacy. My first booking was a package trip from Cebu to Manila which still in a wrong date. The actual date for the flight was to be on August 19 @ 9:50 but the three agent that I spoke to on the 18th got my hotel canceled and only provided me a rebooked solution. Sure, I can rebooked, thank so much for making my simple trip into **************** with my family, along withy impatient high functioning autism, 24 years old son who doesn't like his iPad to be low battery and no wifi. To remind you that the black out still happening, so during my aunty and son lunch the black still going. I have no idea what kind of menu and price for food and drinks. As I saw the server put the first plate of food, I was shocked to see the mountain square shape nacho cheese beyond understanding. My aunty is only 90 to 100 pounds. She doesn't speak English and doesn't understand what she ordered, so she asked question about salad and a slice of pizza. But that not what the server brought, he came out again carrying nacho cheese, same size as the first nacho cheese/beef, except the second is chicken then a whole large Canadian bacon pizza. I couldn't believe the amount of food that was ordered then a Red Bull for my autistic son? My aunty was repeatedly saying that she only want salad and a slice pizza then water. What she really wanted the cook and server wanted to do is take away all the food back including the Red Bull. Oh, one more set of food, two big pieces of Burrito. The hotel is still in black out and stuffy hot and dark. The staff are not good listener. My son started eating and drinking the Red Bull, when I saw him, I told the staff that Red Bull straight might kill him of a heart attack. I also mentioned that my son doesn't know self control when it comes to food which is called glutenny . He already pass his regular weight. I heard my aunty said that my son ordered all the food; she had no idea what he was ordering. Meanwhile the black out still continuing till around 5:30 pm, every building around the area has their electricity back on but not the Papabo. Our booking still in process. The manager charged me for the lunch even though the mistake was the their service, taking order from an autistic person instead of asking his parents. The manager decided to booked us in the one room that has two bunk bed, private bathroom and has windows cause still black out. The room is stuffy and hot, it's on the fourth floor, no elevator and dark to go up the stairs. We decided to lock up our things in the room cause still black out. My aunty over heard that the electricity bill was not paid. So as soon as I got down. The manager charged me 1500 pesos cash plus 1200 pesos for lunch that I only got to eat two slices of pizza and a couple of bite of nacho beef. I didn't get to have the burritos. The Papabo manager quickly went to pay for their electricity bill after she spoke to the owner. My aunty and me went to the beach. I for sure locked the bedroom and still no electriçity. My son went to 7/11 to charge the iPad. We got back at the hotel at 8:30 or so and the electricity was on and my son also in the in the hotel. Do recognized that the hotel keys was an actual key, and I only have the key with. In my surprised our bedroom door was wide open, our things are scattered on the chair and table. Now, just today at this time, I'm still looking for my necklace that has my Mom piece of earing, my oldest son alligator tooth pendant and my initial pendant A. I'll call the hotel when I finished looking at our things here.Yap, my necklace is missing.

GGuest UserI like that the location is close to the event I have attended. The staff are also friendly and approachable. It would have been better though if there were toiletries provided like may tissue. I like that there's available hot and cold water. I will still come back though. I still have plans of getting a room here on my next events.

AAnonymous UserOverall stay was fine, price was fine though felt less safer because my room doesn’t have double lock. And there’s some falling wings of an insects and small debris from the ceilings. Shout out to their housekeeping team for being my tour guide for the short remaining time I had. My stay had become so memorable because of them two. Till next time! 💗

DDavidekoalaThe rooms are very nice and simple overall, and the cleanliness is good. But unfortunately, I have to focus on other aspects that could ruin or significantly impact your stay. The rooms are both front and back, and here, the ones at the front are the ones shown more often, as they enjoy the best location, cleanliness, and quiet. Unfortunately, we ended up in the back for the two nights we stayed, and we were right in front of the kitchen. Groups of people staying there made a racket from 1 a.m. until the morning, or at least until 4:30 a.m., and by 6:30 a.m., people were already cooking and making breakfast. It's not a place to rest or be respectful, so I would avoid it. Furthermore, the shared bathrooms lack shelves or countertops, and in addition to being very dirty, due to guests with poor hygiene standards, we didn't know how to move around or where to put the toiletries. Toilet paper was always wet because it was next to the shower. The place would be nice, but besides being on a remote street, it didn't allow us to rest due to these situations. The staff is friendly and helpful, but there's no point in making so many rules if they aren't followed.

GGuest UserExcellent hotel! The rooms are cozy, and the staff are polite and helpful. The rooms are fresh and clean, and the grounds are well-maintained too. The location isn't the most convenient if you're on foot, but the hotel itself is in a beautiful spot. They also offer scooters at a very good price – cheaper than renting them 'on the street'. When we arrived, all the scooters were taken, but the girls at the reception suggested a company they work with, and everything was delivered right to the hotel for us. When a hotel scooter became available, we took that. They also helped us with tours. We initially booked the hotel for 2 nights, but we loved it so much that we extended our stay for another 3. By the way, the transfer from the hotel is also more cost-effective than arranging it yourself. The hotel owners, Nick and Raquel, are very kind and open-hearted; it was a real pleasure and very interesting to chat with them. Abigail and the other girls are also positive and always ready to help. At this hotel, you feel like you're visiting close relatives. Thank you! We would be very happy to stay with you again!)

RRica MaffieI stayed here this time mainly for remote work, but unfortunately the Wi-Fi was barely usable during my stay. Luckily I had my own backup connection, so it wasn’t a huge issue for me, but without one it could be difficult. I ended up working from a nearby café instead. That said, the location is excellent, which is why I keep coming back almost every month. There are plenty of restaurants and shops nearby, so it’s very convenient and easy to stay around the area. As for the hotel café, I honestly wouldn’t really recommend it. The staff were friendly, but overall the menu and pricing didn’t feel worth it for the quality. There are definitely better restaurant options nearby.

AAnonymous UserWe stayed for a night at a Deluxe Double Room ,our 2nd time.. And this time we stayed on the 5th floor where internet connectivity is available. A larger room and has windows that see the road in which public utility transports pass by. Front desk officers and staff are nice and serve with a heart. Will book again whenever I will be back in Cebu City. Thank you Allsons Inn and Trip.com for a comfortable and affordable stay!

TTSFIt is located on the road going up the mountain from the center of Cebu City. The area is developing and there are high-rise apartment buildings, but there are also many very peaceful houses (if you head towards the valley from the guesthouse site, you will see many dugout huts, and although it is not a slum, you will enter an area where people with low incomes live). There is a restaurant nearby, and the food is delicious. The living room and kitchen are on the first floor (shared with the staff, so it smells good at mealtimes). The beds are perfect, there is air conditioning, and the shower has good water pressure, so I think it is the best choice for backpackers. The photo shows the road going down to the valley area mentioned above in the neighborhood. It was a Sunday when I stayed there, so I could see the residents singing karaoke.

MMartin BosioOver all we had a great stay at this accommodation. The staff was very friendly, always available. We also left our clothes for laundry service, it was quick and inexpensive! We recommend this place for couples. Due to the proximity to the street sometimes you can hear cars and movement from the outside. The only thing we would mention is that in their best room even though they have renovated the bathroom, strong smell comes out of the sewage. It can be quite strong. Other than that it’s a great place to stay and the girls at reception are awesome.
