staff were accommodating! good location too.
the location
none really
Clean and near to resto
Facilities are not that upgraded and no tv in the room
Emplacement parfait Chambre propre confortable et cosy Personnel dispo et agréable
It's close to the good restaurant
The old air conditioner was so noisy that it was impossible to sleep. There were also some mosquitoes and other insects in the room. The bathroom was very small and cramped, making it quite uncomfortable to use. To make matters worse, the room was close to the road, and the noise from motorcycles and nearby bars at night made it impossible to get any rest.
L'emplacement était top, l'accueil top et la chambre très correcte.
Gorgeous airy room which is much larger in person. Shower in bathroom had great pressure and hot water. Staff were very helpful and friendly! Great location too in the centre, cute outdoor area too
Very convenient location to restaurants and convenience store
Entrance is not aesthetic, and very near to rumba grill bar that has a loud music until 12-1 am
I like that we can cook for free, the location is perfect for parties and gigs. I like the elevated bed. Bed is clean bathroom as well. We were accommodated by the staff well. No ants and we like that we have rod outside to hang our wet clothes and towels.
The kitchen needs renovation because it is too dark and mosquitoes are a problem. The pans look old, and the faucet is so high that water splashes all over me, forcing me to reduce the flow. Additionally, the fan is very dusty. While the location is perfect for parties, we didn't realize the background noise would still be audible inside the room at night.
good location, comfy beds
room and bathroom is a bit too small. but you get what you pay for
La proximité avec les restaurants et la plage et la possibilité de louer des scooters directement. Il est aussi possible d'avoir des services massages pas très cher est vraiment bien
Room smells of dampness My things did smells of dampness
Super accueil, chambre très confort et propre. La localisation est parfaite.
Estaba limpio y buena ubicación
El aire acondicionado hace mucho ruido, es difícil dormir con ese ruido
Väldigt snabba svar och välkomnande personal. Bra läge.
Lite lyhört, men det var bara för att det låg nära huvudgatan.
The room is clean. The hotel is along the main road, so there's easy access to restaurants and shops.
The room is too small for 2 people. Bathroom is too small, it's really inconvenient to take a shower. Barely no shelves and cabinet for storage. Disappointing. Also, the room is not sound proof so you can hear the street noise and the sound of the people next door.
Lo único que tiene de bueno son tres cosas , 1 el personal super simpático , 2 la ubicación queda cerca a las playitas y en moto estás a minutos de los puntos de interés de San Juan y 3 la precios del agua está bastante bien
Ufff la verdad muy decepcionante todo , ya al ingresar al lugar nos dimos cuenta que no está señalizado , tenés que diferenciar el hostel de la casa de al lado , entramos a la habitación que no era el de la foto , era muy chiquito para dos personas pagamos 4 noches fueron los peores , había muchas hormigas y bichitos por la habitación lamentablemente en la que estábamos había mucho olor a humedad y para resaltar las paredes son de papel , escuchas absolutamente todo desde el karaoke hasta las 4 am hasta los pasos que dan todas las habitaciones. El último día tuvimos un percance por qué eran las 3 de la mañana y unas chicas estaban en la habitación de al lado haciendo fiesta con 2 chicos más que no eran del alojamiento ( ojo por qué puede entrar cualquiera ) está claro que ya no se aguantaba la situación y mi pareja decidió bajar y buscar al hombre de guardia le explicó la situación y el señor subió temeroso como si no quisiera subir , golpeo apenas la puerta y cuando abrieron no dijo nada , mi pareja tuvo que hacer frente a la situación lo cual queda claro que no hay autoridad en nada para el lugar . Te recomiendo si tus últimos días de vacas los haces en siquijor NO VENGAS A ESTE HOSTEL .
La chambre était conforme aux photos/ La literie confortable / eau chaude ..la gentillesse du personnel. Nous sommes restés 5 nuits et le ménage a été fait complètement le 3eme jours.
Le bruit des alentours / l’hôtel donne sur la rue et la nuisance des bars autours/ chiens Nous le savions avant de réserver
Good location. Every thing is good
The rooms are not well insulated; you could hear the people next door.
Very pretty hostel made of wood, feels quite authentic, and the room is really clean and comfortable, friendly and helpful staff, free coffee and water, the beach is right across the road, absolutely beautiful, the location is great
Bathroom is a bit small, and there's constant music playing in the bar across the road till late night, other than that it's a really good place
La habitación está limpia y la cama cómoda. Bien ubicado. Personal muy amable y servicial.
El baño es minúsculo y se moja todo cuando te duchas. Hemos estado 3 noches y no limpian la habitación, por tanto con la arena, el baño mojado, es un poco desastre. Como está en la carretera general, hay ruido de motos por la noche. Sin espacio para dejar las maletas.
The hotel is located right across the street from the beach, circumferential road in San Juan. 10 meters away is the Rumbar where they serve decent food and beverages to affordable prices and they play good music suitable for every taste. In the evening it gets quite crowded and there's always a good time for everyone. Sand1 hotel you can't expect great luxury but it's very decent and clean. The rooms are a little small but that's not really an issue. The facilities are clean and offer hygiene products as well, so you don't need soap or shampoo. The staff was helpful and very friendly. But ist probably not for people who value a good night's sleep because of the loud music. Nevertheless very affordable and recommendable.
Clean. Easy to access. Comfortable bed.
It is right across from Rumbar which is pretty loud, although I was able to sleep with earplugs.
Emplacement-gentillesse
Pourrait changer les serviettes de bains quand on reste 4 nuits.
-friendly staff -clean room -great overall stay
-bathroom was tiny -can be a bit noisy at night due to the bar across the street
The staff are friendly and approachable. They responds promptly to our request but sadly the place needed some renovation.
The room looks old and not well maintained. There are some leaks at the ceiling. The blanket was too thin as well
This hostel had the minimum requirement, 2 beds for family of 4, private bathroom. Shower has hot water but shower had leakage. Hostel is located in San Juan in the Main Street. Noisy AC but working good. If you need any help to book activities, better ask tuktuk guides
Pictures outside the hostel are old, there is no more sea view due to new constructions. There are some road works in from of the hostel as pretty much all around the island as road are being fixed or enlarged. No water

The staff are all approachable and very friendly.
Cute place! Staff were very helpful and understanding. There’s a nearby drinking place so sometimes it gets noisy if your room is situated at the end but not really an issue for us!
Absolutely lovely! There is nothing we can complain about. Staff was fabulous. Room was above expectations ❤️
Staff was lovely!!! Nice beds as well and the location is perfect. I forgot a few things while checking out and they brought it to the pier 🫶🏽
Didn’t like the house geckos as I’m afraid of it haha.
staff was very helpful and they serve free coffe in the morning! comfortable beds
thin walls and a lot of noise from the bar/restaurant close by as well as from the street. seems overpriced to me
Location is central. But a ped is needed to explore the island as everything is quite spaced out. Staff are so friendly and helped us book transport back to the Ferry Port. Spacious rooms which were clean.
Nothing.
Accommodating staff
Spacious, bright and clean rooms with nice touches in local materials.
Located right on the road - it was impossible to sleep with the club until 3am, the motorcycles and barking dogs.
Beautiful room with great storage and good price on motorbike. Great air-conditioning.
It is, like most others in the area located beside the road so load traffic. Not really a good common area, just a small garden beside the road, looked better on the pictures. The beach on the other side of the road was low tide most of the day (end january) so never went there during day time. If you drive the location is fine, otherwise I would choose the area of Tubod or closer to Paliton.
Perfect location and the staff are kind and very accommodating

Its location from restaurants and cafes. The immediate response of the staff to attend to our needs and queries.

Good location. Nice and clean small room. Staff was friendly.
No warm water from the shower or tap during our stay.
The beds were comfy, air con was cold and the shower was hot. Great location next to many restaurants and convenience store. Just cross the street and the beach is there. We only stayed for one night, took a ferry from Dumaguete and got a tricycle to the hotel about 350 pesos in 15 mins. We arrived around 830 am, we couldn't check in but we were able to leave our luggage there. The sweet lady working asked if wanted to rent motorbikes but we weren't comfortable driving those ourselves. She got us a tuk tuk and the driver Gerald, took us around the whole island to see the attractions and beaches. He was also a great photographer! We had a wonderful time on our short trip. Would recommend 10/10!
nice, comfortable and clean rooms in an ideal location to explore Siquijor.
Fantastic, great value for money and super comfortable.
Really good staff - organised a transfer to the port for us in the early morning. Located just across the beach - perfect for watching sunset. Lovely family run restaurant within walking distance ( roadside diners ) Were able to rent a scooter. Free coffee in morning. No fridge in room but we were able to use communal fridge. Room was freshened up during our stay.

Really good location in the middle of San Juan. Bed was comfy and the room was clean. The staff were very helpful and friendly
Bathroom was very small.
It’s pretty bad when it comes to electricity, but Sand 1 make us feel happy coz when power is off, they automatically switch to generator soo quickly unlike the other place we stay.
Location and affordability is superb

clean place, good location, very accommodating staff
The location was good. The staff were helpful with arranging scooter rental and transport to the port. The bedroom was comfortable.
The bathroom is very small
Fortunately, they have a generator because there are frequent power interruptions during our stay. Also, the WiFi is fast enough to do our work.
simple room, great area, lovely staff, motorbike rental from the property, sold water and other amenities which was useful
shower wasn’t the best but it was fine
Absolutely beautiful room with comfortable bed and extremely kind and helpful staff. Good area with a few restaurants around, good facilities at the hostel.
The bathroom was absolutely tiny. Difficult to use the toilet due to its position in the room, shower pressure next to nothing.
Location was great. The staff made the stay very comfortable & they were super helpful :)
Good location and nicely decorated rooms. They have someone near the entrance at all times so it felt very safe.
I don’t think it should call itself a hostel, It’s a hotel with only 6 rooms. Don’t expect any mingling with people as the set up doesn’t really allow for this. The bathrooms are very small.
Staff were so friendly, helped us with anything we needed very welcoming. The room was very clean & in a good location
A couple of electricity problems but it was an issue around the entire area of Siquijor at the time. Hostel had a generator though which was great.
Cleaned and comfortable hostel Outdoor drying space which was very handy Good location for restaurants and drinks. Very friendly and helpful staff. They booked us a tricycle for our journey to the port and rented us a moped for a few days.
