Perfect place to stay in El Nido Palawan. Very clean and comfortable room. Accessible to all resto, pasalubong stores, night life, and boat tour port. Staff are friendly, kind, helpful. They even prepared packed breakfast for our early flight. Highly recommended place to stay.

The girl at the front desk who attended us was very accommodating and friendly, given we were just staying for just a night. We're a group of 4 and the room provided was spacious enough for us with private bathroom included. would recommend! and would rebook again in the future!

Location: within the city, 5 mins away from the port/ beach area Room: a small room with own bathroom. No TV. Towels and linens are clean but not super clean. don't expect too much considering it is only a hostel. Service: everyone is nice. Good enough for me Food: I noticed that they serve different foods to locals and to foreigners. If they do have 2 options I suggest that they ask their guests which one they would prefer and not assume that just because you’re a Filipino, you would want rice and if you are a foreigner, you would want to bread for breakfast. Price: cheap Still, would book them again / recommend because of the room rates. You wouldn't want to pay more for a hotel room if you are going to be out on tours the whole day.

staff were accommodating. Room is Clean Great breakfast! But I will never booked online. Booked 3 nights at Pawikan but when I got there I was told that I will be transferred to another hostel on my 3rd night because they are fully booked. I was shocked because you didn't informed me about the situation. You knew it that Pawikan is fully booked on my 3rd day but on their listing is not updated. I had no choice since my 3 nights stay is already paid. Now I have nothing against pawikan Hostel. Just with the agent who made the arrangement without informing me. Never again. so inconvenient and hassle!

The rooms are basic, which is fine because you don't really visit the area to hole up in the hotel. Breakfast is the traditional Filipino silog. The staff are so kind and attentive! Thank you
