Hostels in Central Visayas, Philippines

The cheapest hotel I could find. Stayed for 15 days. The rooms was on 4th floor nice and clean. I say rooms because halfway through our stay our air conditioning unit gave out so we were relocated(for free) to another room. The employees were all kind and willing to help with everything we needed. Location is nice. Almost next to Ayala mall and the general area is safe and easy to navigate/find transport in the form of either jeepney or bus. Decor is a bit gloomy and outdated. That beige on the walls is the only thing I disliked. It is by no means a 5 star hotel but it's a bargain for its price(15 euros a night) anyone would be stupid to pass. I recommend it to everyone who want to visit Cebu on a budget. We didn't taste their kitchen or visit the gym they have.

First I must say that my GF and I have stayed at about 10 hotels on Lapu-Lapu Island. All budget or mid-range priced. All in the last 6 months. The AOSMEC is the lowest priced of the group. All other hotels were 2 to 3 times the price of AOSMEC. The simple truth is that my one week stay at the AOSMEC was the best!!!. Yes it is a basic Hotel with no frills or a pool. But if that's what you are looking for? This hotel is simply perfect. PROS: WIFI speed is extremely good since every floor as it's own router. The hotel is extremely clean. It simply is irreproachable. You always see someone cleaning morning to night. Cable TV is very good with brand new TV'S This hotel is Familly owned by phillipino's and they make sure clients are happy. So any issue that might come up. Is dealt with very quickly and correctly. The room cleaning is upon request but just ask and it's done quickly and perfectly! The owners completely understand what a budget traveller needs and they don't overcharge. You can get anything you need on a ”a la carte” basis. Example: we got some laundry done. The price was about 15% higher then doing it ourselves at a laundramat self serve service. If you factor in tranportion cost to get to and from the laundromat. It's less expensive through the hotel. WOW! The clientele is a mix of locals and foreigners. And all are happy with the rooms and services received. The hotel is soo well managed that it is expanding. About 20 rooms are being added. AND THESE ROOMS ARE NICER! 5 Rooms are 95% completed. I visited one. Cons: the restaurant is basic. It's geared more torwards the local clientele. But there are many good restaurants within walking distance and this should not be a concern. There is also a convenience store right next to the hotel. Not even 30 seconds away. It is about 30 minutes away from the airport. Taxis are a bit more scarce but with the Grab app.(like Huber) that issue goes away. This place is the perfect budget hotel that actually beats out most mid range hotels at 3x the price. Dont hesitate and book. No worries here. Do not hesitate in.booking here. You won't regret

my friends and i had errands in cebu city and we needed to stay overnigt. i already had email interaction with the admin saying that there are 3 of us and we want win beds and an extra bed. When we checked in, they strongly suggested 2 bunk beds and i said NO to that. when i said NO, the receptionist looked irritated. She was impolite in conversation and i had to say ”good afternoon” first. She does not smile and rolls her eyes which i do not really like. anyway, the rest of the staff were really nice and accommodating. The housekeeping guys were kind and quick to help us with what we need and the lady in the kitchen wad nice. it still was a good experience. i just wish that receptionist will find ways to look at life a positive way and find joy so she can spread joy as well.

Everything is okay if you are looking for something that you can comfortably sleep esp if youbare just here for work. There’s an available canteen ang convenient store within the building. Only 1 thing that’s important for me that is not available, the water heater is not working.

The location is great, a few minutes away from North Bus Terminal and SM City Cebu. There's a 711, and snack stalls nearby, and a few blocks are some fast foods and commercial areas. I just hope they update the facade, cos its kinda mess and hard to look for. The capsules are okay, just enough to cater your tired body after each day tours. There is a common area, and kitchen utensils are available if you wish to use one. There are a total of 4 bathrooms available, you can choose which one fits you, there are some that are tiny for me, Im 5'8 ”tall. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. Wifi connection is great!

I love this place. The rooms are very clean and cozy. We were very comfortable here during our stay because the atmosphere here is so relaxing. The color combinations of the rooms are just adorable. And the price is just right. The hand-painted murals are simply beautiful. It gives an ambiance of blissful serenity to the place. The staff is also very friendly and accommodating. Try their Chinese dimsum. You will definitely love it. I’m coming back here for sure.

In 10 minutes by car from the airport, convenient if you have late arrival or early departure, resepschen is on the 3rd floor, staff is very nice, helps with any questions raised, the room was on the first floor, On the first floor there are several bathrooms combined with showers, room on 4 beds (2 two-storey), provide a towel, the only thing you need to mean, you need to have your toilet paper and soap, as in the toilet they are not available

We really enjoyed our stay at GT Seaside Inn - the staff were friendly and helpful, room was lovely and spacious with good air conditioning. The staff helped us to book tours locally and these were customisable to the things we wanted to do which was great. The food in the restaurant was tasty and the location was really good for wandering around Oslob, we really enjoyed looking at the old ruins, and we saw some lovely sunsets from the balcony area.

My two days of stay was truly peaceful. I could choose the same dormtel over and over when I am traveling to cebu. It’s customer friendly, convenient to the public vehicles, and complete with amenities. They also gave their own restobar to dine in and enjoy. They provide services for your ticket bookings for boat. Inside their premises, they have an ATM where you can withdraw money conveniently and no hassle. No wander many foreign travelers choose this hostel for their short and long term stay.

This is actually the best accommodation we ever seen in moalboal . My fiance and I stay there for 3weeks and we actually loved it. They have beautiful ,clean and comfy bed . With a kitchen which my fiance loved it . With beautiful beach view in the tower which alex love it so much. Iloved the staff how they taking care of the guest . Ate vilma and kuya there is very helpful if you need help . hope to comeback soon again. Thankyou for the great service . It’s worth the price ❤️

I chose this hotel because it was close to Ocean Park, but to be honest, I was not that energetic when I arrived and could only do some groceries at the nearby shopping center. After that, I went to Ocean Park and other places later. Thank you for letting me stay at such a cheap price.

When you go there, be sure to ride a taxi caused the place is around a private area and there is a lot of dogs in the neighborhood. Some of their gates are open and dogs did came out. Inside the place is quite, good for sleeping. The food is great and the servings are big. Roads are accessible going in and out though narrow. A good place to stay, before heading out to the South of Cebu or visiting Magellans cross, Sto. Niño, Colon Street (oldest street in the Philippines), Tops, Temple of Leah, Malls, etc. Highly recommended.

The hostel is located at a convenient location at downtown Cebu City (Osmena Boulevard) near the Independence Plaza. Easily walkable to the Basilica, Carbon Market, Fort San Pedro and National Museum of the Philippines - Cebu. The bed in dorm has good privacy - independent lighting, curtains and socket. Cleanliness in the dorm (air-conditioned) is good, but there are some flies in the non-air-conditioned area e.g. toilet, which is acceptable given the price.

I had a good stay in the inn but I prefer the other rooms that I used before. Overall though, the staff are helpful and friendly, the place is quiet as well so will definitely check in again soon.

We stayed here for 2 nights and everything was good, aside from the 4 flight of stairs that we have to take. Considering that I stayed there with a kid and I think it wasn't the safest floor. Apart from that, I like our stay...the bed was too comfortable that I thought I'd stay in the room the whole day instead of doing anything.

We tried out this little place because of the location near the airport and Cebu port. The rooms were small, but comfortable, and most importantly, clean. We visited multiple islands and we were there mainly to sleep or to get more items to visit another location. During the times we were out for multiple days, we paid for storage instead of paying for the whole room. The owners were incredibly nice and super helpful. After explaining our plans to them, they recommended transport options and locations. Only downside for most people, is that there is a 10 pm curfew. If you’re looking for more of a nightlife, this one might not be the one for you.

First of all I would like to thank you for the smooth check in at otravel. As I requested for early check in it was very fast. . Employees are very professional and helpful.plus they have a free coffee Daily. If you are looking for a friendly budgetel ostavel is the perfect place to stay and relaxed.

Stayed one night near the airport. Very good hostel.. Surprised. everything is very clean and nice!!!

This is a lot like a dorm. Basic rooms with bed, desk and tv. The phone didn't work. Ian said that a wire got cut accidentally and none of the rooms can use the phone. I couldn't get the TV to work. I couldn't get the shower to work. Took a cold standing bath the first night, splashing myself from the water spout in the tub. I did manage to get warm water the second night, and used one of the water glasses to pour water on my head. The bed was very comfortable, but the walls are thin so I could hear people talking, especially late at night. The breakfast was good, but cold. All the staff were nice, except the woman my first night. I had requested the airport shuttle (which was why I chose the hotel) for 11:30 pm when my flight arrived. I waited and waited. When I called the hotel, the woman said that the shuttle was broken. Ok, but I didn't get a message (and shouldn't there be a contingency plan?). She said to get a cab. I went to the queue and got one, almost half an hour after I arrived. Then when we got to the hotel, the driver said to 'just pay him what I want'. ***!? A man came out and took my bag up the stairs. I followed and entered the tiny lobby. The woman behind the desk immediately started making excuses about the shuttle, saying that I hadn't called, and that I had used the Booking.com website and I had actually reserved the room through Agoda. 1. I NEVER use Agoda. 2. Why would it matter which website I used? I told her that I had the emails confirming the shuttle. She said that she had sent the emails, but since she couldn't find my reservation, she didn't send the shuttle. (I had included my Booking.com reservation number in the email). Wow, 12:30 am and no 'Welcome', just an argumentative worker. The guy took me up to my room. I was getting ready to take a shower when I realized there were no towels, and I had no dial tone on the phone. I was getting dressed when the guy came back and gave me one towel. In the morning I went down to the front desk to ask about sightseeing. The woman was there and didn't say anything when I sat down in front of the desk. Another guest came and handed her their key. She spoke to them. She glanced at me briefly as she went back to doing something on the computer. I said Good morning. She replied and turned right back to the computer. I looked over to the guy who was standing nearby, with an incredulous look on my face. He said something to her and she finally seemed to realize that she had a customer. I told her that I wanted to sightsee. She asked what I wanted to do, I told her I didn't know what the choices were (this was a last minute trip). I asked if there was a place to to parasailing, since we were near the water. She Googled it and showed me the screen, asking which one I wanted. Well heck, I could Google and randomly pick a company! Another man had just come in and saw what was going on. He took over and asked me questions and made suggestions. He said he knew someone and

The entire staff was very nice and accommodating. They tended to my needs as soon as I arrived at the Hostel. The place was very very clean and neat. Aesthetically pleasing to the eyes. The shower and bath was exquisite. Hot shower was very much needed after a long flight and they have it there. The place is very accessible and it’s just a 5-minute drive from Mactan airport and no traffic in the area.

The facilities are good , we sleep well in a room 😊 The kuya in a hotel is very good communications , i will recommend this on our friends.. And our is located at rooftop so we see a lot of city lights and bridge .

The host is a gentle and kind old couple. In the morning, they will prepare a hearty breakfast for guests, which is delicious and feels very warm. The owner is really kind and friendly. There are also comics drawn for them by Japanese tourists in the inn. They must be just like us. Feel their beauty and kindness! I wish the boss a healthy and happy family ❤️ Grandly recommend it to everyone!
