It made the Lonely Planet edition, but it is not worth staying. Room is dirty, airco poorly working. Shower broken, bedsheets didn’t fit the bed and it were nasty looking matrasses!
Staff tried to make us pay double the price. Afterwords we found out that the price per room we paid was overpriced already! Overal a very bad experience. 

Disappointing

The room they provided was dusty and full of cobwebs. This triggered my Allergic Rhinitis the moment we stepped in the room. The sheets smelled like it’s been a while that it wasn’t changed. The porch light was not working. The bathroom was the worst of all. It was dirty and it was home to a medium sized gecko. BUT, they have Free WiFi. So basically, the room was just like a courtesy booth where we leave our things during our day tours. 

Disappointing Stay in this Hotel turned  

No hot water in the shower. Dirty and Broken room. No either daily cleaning. Quiet location+

I do not recommend

I booked two rooms for my wife's family at short notice. Hardly anything available near the beach or really expensive. They say you get what you pay for, but in this case I don't think this place should even be allowed to list on a hotel site for overseas visitors. This place is terrible. The pool has flaking paint in the murky water. I rented two rooms. The rooms are groups of two bamboo huts. Both rooms are dark, dirty and full of mosquitoes. Dengue fever is carried by mosquitoes around here and you can die from Dengue. One bed had sand on it and in it. It wasn't clean or the sheets changed. There are no towels for the ancient bathrooms. The reception and dining area is dingy and dark. The place is located in an isolated area with lots of locals around. My wife saw lots of local men behind the place and was concerned about night time safety. If you are not a local I suggest you go somewhere else. This place is awful. Good reviews can't be right. Its crap.

Even Locals Think It's Awful

It is a little far of the town if you go walking, and it's not easy to find it because of the bad signaling. But the people of the town would guide you.The rooms are spacious with great beds and clean bathroom.The staff was friendly

Big rooms very near to de center of alona beach

We stayed here for over a week, as we did our open water course in Alona and did not bother to look for another place. 

The good thing is the quiet and calmness, if you think Alona Beach is a bit too much. The walk is not that far, although you would have to be okay walking in the dark through some vegetation and pass some goats and hens. 

The place is pretty old and not very clean - seems like someone had big plans but forgot the place a few years ago. 

If you stay here, you HAVE TO go to the Italian restaurant across the street, called Vanilla Sky. They have home made buffalo mozzarella and great Italian food! 

Quiet but old place

It's a very cheap hotel so we didn't expect it to be a good one. We only wanted a bed to sleep on. The room is not light enough. There were many local people partying in the lobby.

I stayed here Dec 2016, good clean swimming pool, only problem inside the building was the refurbishment being carried out, but soon to be completed. I paid 500 pesos a night for a fan room with comfy double bed. 15 minute walk to Alona beach and 10 mins to restaurants and bars.

Travelling through

I checked straight out and went and found another hotel

Just stayed one night here when backpacking.Ignorant staff, room smelled like urin and water dripping in both the shower and bathroom sink. Meet another couple that could flush the toilet but the staff didn't help them. Even if cheap, it's possible to find much better for that price.
