Great stay
Pros:

The place offers a relaxing area by the swimming pool and the staff helps to arrange tours and pick-ups. We enjoyed the Honda Bay Island tour which was surprising beautiful and relaxing (after we already experienced snorkeling in Port Barton). I would definitely recommend it. After searching, we realized that Baker's Hill is super close by and you can walk for 15 minutes or take a tuk-tuk. We enjoyed our evening there and it's definitely recommended to visit! Thank you for a wonderful stay! The room was clean and spacious. Great value for money.

Cons:

It takes some time for the food to arrive at the restaurant, so order it before your start unpacking or when you wake up in the morning, then you can enjoy your meal once you are ready.

Pros:

L'accueil agréable. Nous n'y sommes restés qu'une nuit et avons profité de la piscine la matinée. l'emplacement necessite d'etre vehiculé pour aller au resto. Pas de restauration à l'hotel à 10 p.m après une arrivéé tardive. Nous avons pu cependant acheté des chips à l'hotel.

una casa in campagna
Pros:

colazione a scelta. Struttura molto pulita e, soprattutto, uno staff eccezionale. Sono disponibili a tutte le tue richieste, gentilissimi e col sorriso sulle labbra. Mi hanno fatto l'upgrade della stanza gratuitamente, chiamato taxi a tutte le ore, parlato coi filippini quando dovevamo comunicare. Insomma: uno staff a cinque stelle! 🤩 Il prezzo è davvero basso, vista la qualità dell'attenzione. La piscina è gradevole di pomeriggio

Cons:

la posizione dell'hotel è davvero infelice: è lontanissimo da tutto, dal centro sono 30 minuti di auto, dal porto dove prendere i battelli per le isole sono 20 minuti di auto e nei dintorni non c'è assolutamente nulla. E di notte è un concerto di cani abbaianti e galli che sbagliano orario.....non tornerei solo per la posizione

Pros:

The room was fine

Cons:

We booked the room because of the pool and we arrived early so we could spent the whole day at the pool but when we came they said we could not use the pool until the next day where we had an early flight

simple, sweet and reasonable
Pros:

Was here just for a night stay over before heading to El nido. The hotel is clean, decent and good rooms. The bathroom was bigger so that was a plus. As a location its pretty inside and in the night it might look slightly dead vicinity with no signage on the roads before entering the lane.

Cons:

The location.

Pros:

Personal sehr freundlich
Frühstück und Abendessen passt

Cons:

Sauberkeit, das Hotel ist in die Jahre gekommen. Wenn man duscht ist das Badezimmer komplett unter Wasser.
Es stinkt in den Zimmern
Der Dreck wird nicht weggeräumt und bleibt stehen.
Bakers Hill ist 5 Minuten zu Fuss und das einzige wo man essen bekommt bis 20;30 uhr

Quiet location
Pros:

If you want a quiet location for relaxation, this is a good location. Room was clean. Service was quick and professional.

Cons:

It was quite a distance to the nearest restaurants. Hotel does have a restaurant, but they are only serving a reduced / modified menu, so not many choices. If they get more customers, they might serve the regular menu? I don't recommend asking them to book tours - the tour operators were very unprofessional, took us for an "extra" side trip to an additional location (extra HOURS) and were pushing to get you to spend money at the "extra" location.

Pros:

El personal es fantástico, muy amables, te intentan ayudar en lo que pueden. Te reciben con un zumo de naranja.

El restaurante y su comida está muy bueno. Vienen raciones generosas, no te quedas con hambre.

La piscina es un puntazo del alojamiento.

Cons:

Había un gato que rondaba por la piscina y se acercaba a nosotros, varias veces tuve que avisar al personal para que se la llevaran.

En nuestra habitación, el aire acondicionado daba el aire a los pies, estaría bien si lo pudieran cambiar de posición.

La ubicación no tiene mucho ambiente, lo único que tiene cerca es el Baker’s Hill.

Pros:

Además de la gran piscina, la habitación espaciosa y el buen desayuno, lo mejor de todo fue el servicio del hotel. Todas las personas estaban muy atentas de nosotros, y especialmente la dueña del hotel que ante los problemas que teníamos para contratar un tuc tuc se ofreció ella a llevarnos personalmente al centro de Puerto Princesa y por más que insistimos no nos quiso cobrar nada. Estamos muy agradecidos por el favor que nos hizo de forma desinteresada.

Cons:

Nada

We would highly recommend Dinah’s. The property is about 15 minutes away from the airport but it’s all worth staying. St
