"Pros: I like how clean the room is upon entering. The bathroom also has a hot and cold shower which we loved. The staff also accommodated the request we had because there was a misunderstanding on the booking. They went above expectations for that. Cons: The location is not ideal because what we see outside is another hotel and the neighbor's roof. If you like views outside your hotel, this is not for you. Also, even if the room was initially clean, we saw that there are small cockroaches hiding behind the lavatory. We saw them when we woke up during the early hours of the day. We opened the lights and they were on the lavatory." ~Julius

"Pros: I had a wonderful stay at this cozy new hostel and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a warm and comfortable place to stay. I was a bit skeptical at first because the price was on the higher side for a hostel, but it was totally worth it. They’re still on soft opening, but everything was clean and organized and the staff were accommodating. I was actually the only guest during my visit, so it felt like I had the whole hostel to myself. The ambiance throughout the hostel and cafe is relaxed, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed. The beds are spacious and comfortable, and I appreciated the built-in reading light and power outlets, which made it easy to relax and recharge (literally and figuratively). When it comes to safety, the place is well-covered with CCTVs throughout. While the rooms currently use traditional door locks (they’re planning to upgrade to keycards), I felt secure during my stay. There’s also a security guard on-site. Lockers are available in the hostel room but remember to bring your own padlock. The location is okay - just a short walk to Araneta City, so it’s super convenient if you’re watching a concert or catching a provincial bus out of the metro. One standout for me was the amazing Tapsilog meal for breakfast. I was expecting something basic, but it turned out to be a real treat. It’s clear that the team behind this hostel is passionate about what they’re building. While they’re still refining a few things as part of the soft launch, I’m confident it’ll only get even better from here. I have made a few recommendations to the management based on my experience and I hope they'll consider. I will definitely come back and recommend this place to others. ✨ Cons: Nothing so far, they are doing well even if they're still on soft opening" ~Manuel
