Good value for money
Pros:

Close to main strip, staff very kind, family dinner was amazing and good value for money

Cons:

My first night there were drunk people drinking in the common area until the early hours it was hard to sleep. The paths leading to it have huge potholes and are very wet and muddy and the tuktuk drivers at night all tried charging stupid prices saying it’s because the road is bumpy. If you walk you will get muddy. I booked an airport transfer with them it didn’t come but they arranged a tuktuk for me I made it to the airport with 2 minutes spare

The best hostel I have ever been to!
Pros:

I honestly can’t recommend Yellow Banana enough!
what started as a short stay turned into a full month, simply because it felt like home.
From the very first day, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and full of amazing people. The staff are truly something special, so kind and genuine that they quickly became like family to me.
The hostel itself is fantastic and has a great location in General Luna! clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed. The beds are super cozy, and the shared kitchen is fully equipped, making it easy to cook and feel at home.

One of the best parts is the community vibe. Twice a week there’s a family dinner where everyone eats together, plays games, and connects, all for free. Plus, there are different activities every day of the week like spearfishing, padel, and rock climbing, so there’s always something fun to do.

This place is so much more than just a hostel. it’s an experience, a community, and a home. I left with unforgettable memories and friendships for life ❤️

Pros:

After a mistake with my flight time I booked last minute an extra night. Staff was exceptionally helpful and kind, I was able to check in early, and they help arrange transport to airport when I departed.

Cons:

Bathrooms, but my frustration is with Filipino bathrooms in general. The lack of separation between shower and the rest of the space is something I don't understand haha

Really amazing hostel
Pros:

Such a lovely vibe! The people working there are so friendly and helpful. The Dorm was good, nothing special but got everything you need. They clean Everyday. The location is very central, but you need to drive/walk a little bumpy road before getting to the mainroad. The planned so much fun activities and i met lovely other solo travelers. I really enjoyed my stay here, i truly recommend!
