BEST HOSTEL IN MANILA (and maybe anywhere)
Best hostel ever. I never leave reviews, but I LOVE this spot maybe more than any place that I've ever stayed. I've never stayed so long somewhere. I and other guests have taken side trips and return here. I haven't even left Manila because I like this hostel so much
1) The staff is AMAZING. I feel like some of them are almost cousins by the laughs and inside jokes that I and other guests share with them
2) We have a ridiculous 6-7 PM rooftop FREE UNLIMITED OPEN BAR. You can have a million drinks if you want (one at a time). This is why many of us don't even leave the building to party anywhere else. During my two weeks in Manila, I only left to party elsewhere ONE TIME and that was for the Super Bowl
3) Free breakfast on top that
4) The beds are comfortable. Most, if not all, of the dorms have bathroom ensuite.
5) All rooms have air conditioning
6) Free bottled water and occasional snacks
7) Delicious and cheap food at the rooftop restaurant
8) Strict armed doormen with surveillance cameras at the building entrance (this is somewhat normal in Philippines)
9) Impeccably clean: every day the staff works so hard to leave everything spotless
10) Common room with big screen TV
11) Games of all kind all over the property
12) Organized fun: music blares on the rooftop bar, but it ends at 1:30 AM and can barely be heard from the room. Right now, my bunkmates are peacefully snoring, and I have slept all day without being able to hear anything.
Congratulations and thanks so much!
