A good spot to stay for whale shark experience.
Pros:

Hotel was in walking distance of the whale shark experience. You can book the tour right with hotel, which a guide will pick you up in the early morning and get you off and running early little wait times. Same price as normal, this was a big bonus. Hotel it self is good for a basic accommodation. Only a one night stay, and it served its purpose. I found the staff to be extremely helpful here with good tips.

Cons:

Nothing that I didn't like. good stay overall.

Место где заканчивается цивилизация. Холодильника нет. Горячей воды нет. Вместо мыла какая-то разбавленная жидкость. Гря

Pros:

Great location if you want to see the whale sharks plus the owner’s son works as a guide. The bus stop is right outside and a gas station is across the road. The room was clean.

Cons:

You have to pay for the water from the cooler. The owner seemed to be helpful but the trycicle rates she quoted were much higher than what you’ll pay if you just ask any driver along the road.

Pros:

В 10 минутах очень неспешным от whale sharks watching. Условия очень простые. Есть общий кулер. При отеле небольшой магазинчик. Шум с дороги не мешает.

Cons:

Жил я на первом этаже, и в 3 и 4 часа ночи под дверями, практически, орали какие-то мужики, но я не разобрался - гости это или персонал. За это надо бы двойку ставить, но хозяйка бежали за автобусом, чтобы отдать забытую рашгард.

沒熱水、都是螞蟻、化學藥劑除臭劑味道充滿房間、惡意漲價
Pros:

地點

Cons:

因為只有到現場付現選項所以booking下訂後主動詢問費用總額，飯店隨即漲價15%聲稱是因為稅費什麼費等等的費用想說地點已不錯也就接受，沒想到到現場櫃檯直接漲25%，跟他說價格不對，櫃檯只會一直說就是這樣要我給錢，我拿出booking對話訊息他看完也是堅持要漲價，後來包車司機過來還有另一個飯店員工來講半天才變回訊息上的價格。

這種坑殺顧客的商家！極度不推，噢對了！我還沒講到住宿設備及體驗有多差，你不信？可以去體驗一下。

Наверное это стандартная ситуация для локации. Я бы не остался больше. Но было просто средне
Pros:

Плюс - есть сервис гидов, которые помогают с очередями и тд. Также плюс - бесплатный номер типа хостела для вашего водителя, если вы едете на авто или автобусе

Cons:

Номер чисто переночевать перед визитом на китовых акул. Проблема в кафе внизу, до 3 ночи бухали местные и орали. Мне нужно было вставать в 5 утра занимать очередь - я поспал едва 1,5 часа. Шум с дороги, ты как на обочине лежишь. Не думаю, что возможно что-то там улучшить 😂

Avoid and stay somewhere else
Pros:

There’s no positives

Cons:

Unfriendly staff just constantly asking what tours you will be booking.

But completely unhelpful when asking about bus times to Cebu only interested in offering an 8k peso taxi.

Food menu isn’t for themselves it turns up on a moped.

Perfect basic stay for what you need when wanting the early whaleshark spots !
Pros:

How close it was to the whaleshark spots. Could see them from the roof and was minutes to get there next morning

Cons:

A few ants coming in the bathroom. Not end of the world but washed down the toilet before each use as they kept coming.

Gezellig. Je kan er ook eten en er is een winkeltje dat altijd open is. Vlakbij alles.
Pros:

Vriendelijke mensen. Top! Naast dit hotelletje ligt Bru Mini resort, waar je het dubbele betaalt voor een nacht, maar wel een mooi zwembad en toegang hebt tot het strand (is het geld waard!). Maar je kan er overdag ook gratis op een strandstoel gaan liggen zonder boeking en lekker eten en snorkelen (maar je moet wel zelf snorkelmateriaal meebrengen). En vergeet niet te gaan zwemmen met de whale sharks een beetje verder. Geloof niet dat je er vroeg voor moet opstaan, er is altijd nog plaats, en je moet geen tour boeken, gewoon ernaartoe gaan voor 10 am. Amazing!

Cons:

Wifi werkte niet maar er was goede 4G ontvangst
