Pros:

Quite an old property, there were towels down in the public areas as it leaked when it rained. Felt like the floors had never been cleaned (very very dusty), and there were also "soft spots" in the floor that felt like we might fall through at any moment. Staff were very helpful, and the building location right by where the island tours depart was convenient, but didn't make up for the rundown nature of the building overall. The provided wifi didn't reach our room either.

Pros:

There were rats in our room. While I was in the bathroom a rat ran along the bottom of the door, up the side of door, and into the roof.
There wasn’t any running water between 2am and 6am.
The door chain was broken.
The bath was filthy.
The people running this hotel know about the rats, it was not a surprise to them.

Iyi bir konumda farelerle geçireceğiniz bir hotel
Pros:

Özellikle otel sahibinin dikkatini. Otelin konumu cok iyi, yıllar önce güzel bir otel olmuş olabilir. Fakat odalarıni yenilemeniz gerekiyor.
Çünkü eski ve pis oldugu için 3 gece lağım faresi ilen birlikte konakladık. Odada ki fare sirt çantami içinde bir paket pasta yi yemek için parçaladı.
Personeller ilgili ve saygılı.
Bu konumda bir otel için bu yazdıklarım üzücü olarak fakat gerçek bu.
Fiyatiniz uygun.
Size tavsiyem odalara biraz tadilat yaparak oda fiyatlarını yükseltebilirsiniz.
Konumunuz çok iyi.
Fareleri uzak tutmak için düzgün temizlik ve acil ilaçlamaniz gerekir

Pros:

Das Hotel entsprach leider nicht den Erwartungen, die durch die Bilder geweckt wurden. Für 1-2 Übernachtungen ist es noch in Ordnung, aber die Sauberkeit ließ zu wünschen übrig. Unser Zimmer wurde während des Aufenthalts nicht gereinigt, und trotz Meldung war die Badewanne sowie das Lavabo ständig verstopft.

Pros:

I love the location of this hotel, which is the near the port, and it is surrounded by many small stores and eateries. I have stayed in this hotel when it was very new and stayed several more when I come to Coron. My memories about it stayed with me. The rooms were relatively large and commodious.

Pros:

Place is outdated, not well-maintained by management, although staff and service were nice. It wasn’t worth being charged $55 for a 3rd guest in a room with 2 queen beds for $55 a night for 3 nights. Booked this place coz it’s conveniently next to the port but should’ve looked somewhere else.

Pros:

This hotel was awful. Bedsheet dirty (with stains), towels were very dirty and full of holes. Bathroom was not fully constructed, missing tiles, broken parts.. etc
I am very disappointed that expedia give this hotel such a high rating when it is not even close. I travel quite a lot to different parts of the world and I know what to expect more or less but this hotel has been terrible.
I wouldn’t recommend this hotel and the stars should be just 2. Only good thing was the location.
Not sure if will keep buying my trips trough expedia..
I have photos for proof if needed.

Pros:

The hotel’s electric power is on and off. No air conditioner. The hotel rooms need upgrading. The hotel personnels are very professional, polite and very accommodating. They were able to transfer us to a smaller hotel.

Good location and very friendly staff
Pros:

The room and the bathroom were very spacious. Provided water, towels, toothbrush, comb, soap, shampoo, in-room slippers, coffee, kettle and ref.
Location: walking distance to different restaurants, pasalubong shops, tour agencies and motorcycle rentals.
Cable TV provided, but not so clear, lines all over were present. WiFi provided, but slow. Good for browsing FB, but not for playing Netflix.
Electricity was going on and off at night, but didn't bother me so much. I think this is the case in Palawan.
Water - heater was not that strong. It was already in the maximum but can't really feel the hotness of the water in the shower.
Housekeeping - not automatic. You have to tell them if you want your room to be cleaned and they will.
Staff - they were very friendly, cheerful and helpful. This is what I liked most during my stay.

Great Location for Coron Island Hopping and Diving
Pros:

Coron Gateway was a great choice for island hopping and diving activities in Coron. Though the suites are a little dated and the hotel doesn't have a restaurant on-site, service was friendly and helpful. Location is very close to the pier and local market. Walkable distance to many great restaurants. Suites are very roomy, spacious, modern.

Pros:

Booked for three days, checked in the first room and it smelled really bad. Moved to another room, same thing! It was late in the day, so we checked out the next day. This hotel has potential if management will just fix the place!

Awkward
Pros:

Even if it is in a good position, near the departure of tours, but they haven’t got any maps or they couldn’t give you any information about what we can find in the neighborhood.
There are too many ants and they ask us 1000 pesos per night for an additional single bed that is actually a mattress on the floor??? It makes hard to stay there with children.
We didn’t take a shower for two days because at first there wasn’t hot water then there wasn’t water at all.
We had problem with wc discharge during all the stay.
Most of towels are overused.
WiFi doesn’t work in rooms and for two days it didn’t work at all.
Our room was very nice, but if you can’t have basic service it’s useless.
Breakfast is not included.
Really bad accommodation compare with the price
