Maraño's Home

Confortable bed and very nice staff.

Tried to charge me for toilet paper that was used by everyone else.

The cleanliness of the hostel is superb.

Far from the main road

Nothing

The room booked was very cheap but was totally unacceptable to my friend who needed to be in Legazpi for hospital tests. She therefore had to pay considerably more for a better room. This seems to be a not uncommon feature. A very cheap room is advertised but a better one is found for a much higher price. It's better and cheaper to go elsewhere as there were a number of decent hotels at a lower price than my friend ended up paying

Petite chambre à l'étage style grenier avec une trappe, ventilo, j'ai bien aimé.

Un peu éloigné mais ça va.

The staff were friendly. It looks like the room is clean (but not sure).

It was quite far from the main road (about 10 minutes walk). We got a room for 10-12 people but we were only 3. So on our part, it was expensive. But we had our own private bathroom but it was very dark inside and water flowed slowly. Not sure about cleanliness for the bathroom.

It feels like home

Please place a signage so we could locate immediately the property

Nice view

Durchgerockte Bude, drecksloch

Really nice proprieters, great view of Mayon volcano in distance, comfortable and quiet room.

Wifi was very patchy throughout the day (maybe because they hold sporadic seminars and there's too many people on the network?). A little far from the main part of town.

The owner was really attentive and accomodating!

None

The host is nice, we did feel welcome and able to ask for help when we needed it. It's nice you can use a kitchen and can purchase snacks/drinks.

The budget room we initially got assigned to felt very cramped and smelled and felt somewhat damp. It didn't have a window outside and is located right beside the kitchen area making it noisy. We soon saw it wasn't very clean. A.o. many insects in the walls and ratpoop. After finding ratpoop on and under the pillows we asked for another room. The guys were very nice and accomodated us fast by giving us another room. This room was definitely an improvement, with a window, more space and it was slightly cleaner. We still found ratpoop, but not in the bed. Still compared to other stays we've had, this was definitely not worth the 850 peso we payed.

The honesty store

None

The staff is so friendly and really take care of us ! If I come back, I will definitely come to Marano’s house again ! :)

Pleasant man - Mr Marano

Nothing

The place is quiet.

I found it with google.

Good value for money, good location in terms of being in the 'center', albeit unfortunately far from any eateries. Welcoming hosts. I'd rate it as 8.5

Quite cramped bathroom (with guaranteed always wet floor) - but its hard to do smth with it because bathrooms are small in most local elder houses

It was a very good stay. Nice staff. Nice room.

The location...it's not that accessible.. Far from jeepneys. A little bit far from the center.

The owner was exceptional. He was kind and helpful. He offered us slippers when we got to the lobby. The place and the room were clean. In the third floor, is a great terrace overlooking the Mayon volcano.

Going up to our room, the area just looked a bit cluttered with church items here and there. The water heater in the bathroom is unplugged (maybe not working?), exposing an electric socket which was unsafe with water splashing everywhere.

it’s homey and the view of the mayon is a plus

The owner chraged us with additional 2000 pesos for the aircondition.

owner was nice and location was good

no AC

Owner and his staff are amazing, great calm and local experience. Feeling like at home, 1 night became a 4 nights stay. Thanks uncle Ferdi for accompanying us!

Nice place to stay for a budget wise travel. Very accommodate owner and staff. You can view the Mayon volcano outside. Very quiet place on weekdays. With free bible study and prayer meeting on sundays.

The view of the mount Mayon from the rooftop is just breathtaking! Ferdinand (owner) is very friendly, helpful and likes to have a small chat. He even drove us to the bus terminal and offered us some Bicol food specialities. There was once water supply issue and Ferdinand went straight away to buy waterbuckets so we do not run out of water - what a legend! There is a kitchen you can use and if you need anything there is an inhouse "honesty store" were you can buy different stuff. Free water hot or cold The rooms are basic but considering the price and what you get woth it mentioned above it is super value.

There are small pesky ants so look after your food.

Able to cook and use the utensils for free

The electric fan in the room was noisy at night during the 2nd night. Other guests also who arrived late at night were loud.

no disturbance - so quite. the honesty store is unique of its kind

nice and the scenery of the top floor is beautiful!

Good wifi and plenty of home touches

Very difficult to find. Was part of a religious centre

Very hospitable staff. Cozy room. Location- in a quiet and green area.
