oK first of all, if you´re looking for a 5*-hotel, this is not your choice, it´s a backpacker´s place - and for a backpacker this is definitely the best place to hang out in manila. i always stayed in the dorms - but i also know the room, they are very basic, the dorms are very nice. it´s quite cheap.... more

The windows dont have screens, the bedsheets don't fit on the crusty mattress and there are .... little green bugs!!! The common area is quite good though and the location is excellent. The place isn't very clean though. At least they keep the sex tourism out!!! It's very cheap though, but you get what you pay for. more

We arrived at the hostel during the night. Maybe it was the darkness that made it look horrible, but I don't think I want to see this place during the day. First, our reservation was unknown, so we got a dirty room without blankets (and if we had some, I wouln't have touched them anyway) We had to walk through... more

i advise that you double check your reservations at this place before arriving. Our room was given away a few times even though we had confirmations. It totally sucked! Although we were given a room, it wasn't what we had requested. That said, the owner Benji is friendly. Loved the location, but note its in the gay mecca of manila.... more

Recommended for those on a shoestring willing to share a room in traditional European hostel type environs. The common area was acceptable and there was a lively international backpacking crowd. The prices are rock bottom for a major city place to sleep. It is located in a lively area of Manila which can be a good thing if you want... more

The rooms and the balcony are quite noisy. Also 250 Peso is not cheap for an 8 bed dormitary. Safety is not given, as people can easly walk into the hostel and dormitary. The owner is very nice to some tourists but treat others, especially Philippine tourists quite bad. In my opinion thats discrimination. more

I was able to promptly exchange SMS messages with Benji the day before I arrived, and book a small but comfortable room with (clean) shared bathroom. Only P500! No joke; this place really is friendly. Benji (the manager) and his other guests were interesting. The rooms are pretty basic so I wouldn't stay there for a week, but a couple... more

we chanced upon this place last year as we strolled along adriatico with my hubby. It was his first trip to Manila with me and when he arrived there from amsterdam for his 1st visit, he didn't like it, having stayed in the usual tourist trap of Makati. We fell in love with the place almost immediately and transferred there... more
