+the staff were extremly helpful and welcoming they teach you and let you cook, they offered us bears and cooked for us nuddles when we failed to make it in the right way , the place had a natural vibe ,it was so relaxing hearing the chicken's voice in the morning , and we have got to witness the real life style of philppinos , its a good cheap place to be in , compared to the other hotels that are so much more expensive , the hotel was almost 8 minute far from the beach which was not as crowded as the beaches next to other stations . also the internet was working so well .
−the bathroom was pretty small and not really enough for 2 people but otherwise it was really good and really worth it

“Fantastic stay at very reasonable price especially for the area everything including supermarkets”
+From the moment we arrived we felt looked after by our hosts Mark and Bok The Wi-Fi is good Although not in our room we were allowed to use cooking facilities free of charge Good size fridge and freezer in room Mark was a fountain of knowledge of the surrounding area and prices to pay and how to get around The amazing beach at station 1 within 5 min walk The hosts even cooked for us a few nights free of charge including a BBQ No kettle in room but boiling hot water supplied whenever you need Location a bit daunting at first but all the local people amazing and helpful plenty of shops very close by Would happily and will come back

“Questionable descriptions of property and value for money”
+The staff were a little shy at first and not so receptive which made me feel a little uneasy. But they were helpful when there was an issue with the shower and swift to fix it promptly. Also brought me tea everyday which was a kind gesture and I appreciated. The building was an old style building very sturdy during the bad weather and gate to the property was secure.
−The room was dated and almost like it hadn't been used for years. Curtain stained ripped and barely hanging on. Everything looked tired and needing renovation. However it was relatively clean and I was happy to share my room with a lizard. It doesn't at all warrant the price tag per night needs reducing signifcantly if I'm being honest. It was almost as if they didn't expect my arrival and put me in old disused room. The shower broke on arrival gushing water throughout the bathroom. This was swiftly fixed by them replacing the tap so 10/10 for their efforts. Bambooze haus being in a local neighbourhood expect noises from local roosters to wake you up in the early hours there are several of them constantly making noise. So my sleep quality was unfortunately poor. The location is in a shanty town which the pathway is muddy and down a dark alley. Plus some of locals weren't too friendly with me (i'm a westerner) I asked for directions to find my way out to the road and they purposely thought it was amusing to send me the wrong way. The hotel just needs to be a bit more honest with their pictures and renovate the rooms but I can tell finances haven't been kind to them. I stayed in a ho

“I will not gonna book this property again.”
+Staff are nice.
−The property is very old, it should need renovation. The washroom in our unit stinks and doesn’t flush well, washroom door broken. They should check well every rooms before someone ready for check-in . Surroundings are not pleasant to look but the staff they were nice and friendly.

“DO NOT GO. I would give Zero score if there was an option.”
+Nothing, have left and switch to a different stay after one night.
−I don’t like giving bad reviews, but it’s only fair to warn fellow travelers. I understand the low budget and that standards can’t be high, but here the level was truly unacceptable. Very dirty. Very damp and with a smell of moisture. The bathroom was practically unusable. Also, the entrance was a bit too secluded, through a small path that was too isolated, dark and muddy and I’ve felt not safe to go there at night. I wouldn’t go back even if they paid me. That said, I feel sorry for the host who seemed like a nice guy, although he spoke very little English. But everything needs improvement.

“Traveler Budgetarian”
+If your looking for affordable price and at the same time nearest to the beach estimated (5-7min) walk from the area. Kung maarte ka hindi ka pwede dito. pero if Traveler budgetarian ka like me this is what you looking for. very Accommodating ng Owner specially staff. Kung iniisip nyo na safe ba yung place if late na kayo umuwi galing Bar or beach? Yes this is totally safe area mapapaisip ka lang sa unang pagdating mo sa area pero napaka safe nya like maglakad ka kahit late night na safe na safe ka. Malaki ang matitipid mo dito compare sa mga ibang Accommodation na ang presyo is like 3-4x ang laki ng difference kaya yung ibang budget mo is magagamit mo pa sa ibang expenses mo like Food and pasalubong. at uulitin ko BAWAL SA MAARTE. advantage mo pwede ka mag luto ng food nyo lalo na Big group kayo malaki ang matitipid mo and if timatamad ka naman magluto pwedeng pwede ka makabili sa malalapit na Carenderia at malapit na rin sa Mall like ROBINSON estimated travel walk 10mins if commute ka nasa 3-5mins nandun ka na 15pesos lng pamasahe at nandun na lahat ng kailangan mo.
