Very memorable.
Pros:

The meals were decent and simple. The location is convenient. It is close to the centre and close enough to Batad, Hungduan, etc. Everyone at Rice Homestay was wonderful. Bambino was efficient and amazing at arranging the day tours and needs of the day. Mimi was very hospitable and welcoming. The drivers and guide, Sela, were patient and friendly. They all made our stay in Banaue very memorable.

Pros:

Très bon emplacement avec une super belle vue. Le personnel est aux petits soins et nous permettent de se doucher avant l’enregistrement à l’hôtel ou avant de prendre le bus pour rentrer à Manille.

Cons:

Connexion wifi dans les chambres absente.
Pas d’insonorisation et on peut être réveillé très tôt le matin par les bruits aux alentours.

Nous tenons à remercier 'Bambino. pour l excellente organisation de notre séjour ainsi que notre guide Machete qui s'est toujours montré disponible et d'une grande gentillesse.

Homely and comfortable
Pros:

Homely and comfortable stay which acts as a perfect stage to explore Banaue. Bambino was excellent in organising a personal itinerary for your stay, with very transparent pricing. Food is served all day, and is good quality. All the staff were extremely accommodating and friendly. Rooms and facilities were very clean and well maintained. You typically arrive in Banaue using the night bus in the early hours of the morning. To avoid waiting a few hours for your room to be ready that day, we recommend booking the previous night so you can enter your room on arrival.
