Établissement propre, personnel gentil et chambres très propres. Du café et du thé sont à disposition. Je recommande !

Very good location, cheap option and comfortable stay
Would be better to be more cleaned, the property itself could increase the price a bit more. It has potential.
Famille très amaible, au centre.
Beaucoup de bruit
Location is very nice, walking to the center takes about 2 min. Rooms are nice and clean.
When we arrived they told us the wifi was broken and they were fixing it asap. However during our 5 night stay the wifi never got fixed, even though we asked for it several times. So we didnt have wifi for our whole stay…
Great view of Taraw Cliff from the balcony! A very comfortable stay after our 3 day boating expedition. We booked the room with the nicer shower and it certainly felt like a treat (pressure and temperature was great). Balcony was great for hanging clothes to dry (our clothes surprisingly dried within a day here!) Very convenient location- very close to the El Nido Port. Staff was very helpful and helped us call a tuktuk from the hotel to the bus terminal. Gorgeous wooden structure throughout!
Breakfast was nothing special (toast, eggs, fruit). The Wi-Fi signal was strongest outside in the shared outside areas (where it was hot, muggy, and had mosquitos flying around)- we would have preferred to use the Wi-Fi comfortably from our room too. This accommodation was pricier than other accommodations we’ve stayed at in the Philippines, but I do think this might be El Nido-specific.
המקום נמצא במיקום מצוין בול במרכז! יש הכל ליד מסעדות, כביסה, קניות! החדר יחסית גדול ונקי.
היינו בחדר למטה לא הייתה לנו פרטיות, בחוץ לא היה איפה לתלות את הבגדים הרטובים וזה חשוב כי זה יעד של ים….
Affordable Clean Privacy Great staff
None
Buena ubicación, cama cómoda, aire acondicionado y ducha muy bien.
El poco espacio para dejar las maletas y cosas.
La gentillesse du personnel rien à dire. L'emplacement aussi en plein centre
Le logement. Moisissures, humidité, odeurs épouvantable, punaises de lit, cafards dans la chambre. Vue montagne inexistante. La pire chambre que j'ai jamais vue .... Douche au dessus des toilettes et des interrupteurs ... Plus jamais.
La situation
Aucun produit de toilettes fournis, pas de sèche cheveux, chambre et sdb mérite d’être rafraîchies! Bruyant jusque tard le soir
La ubicación el tamaño del dormitorio

Everything
Nothing
The room was basic, very clean and quite even in a noisy neighborhood. Diane, who was in-charge was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was a basic breakfast - fruit, egg, toast or pancakes. Well cooked. Coffee was instant and available 24 hours a day. Location was near to the beach, shopping and restaurants. Laundry services were right across the street.
all was good
Very central to the centre of El Nido. Perfect stay for us as we were travelling on a budget.
Did need to sleep with a mosquito net as I wasn’t sure how well the doors/ windows were for keeping them out. Be aware that in a room for 2 the shower is in the toilet as we didn’t realise this until a few days before. But it wasn’t a problem for us.
Great location, friendly helpful staff.
Rooms were quite small.
Friendly Staff Easy to walk everywhere Delicious restaurant accross the road - Pongs Pares. Free English tea, coffee and drinking water 24/7 Strong Air Conditioning Hot water shower Gave more soap/shampoo/tp when we needed it. Good bidet.
Soggiornare in questa struttura è stata un'esperienza purtroppo segnata da profonde criticità, che mi preme segnalare per onestà intellettuale verso i futuri viaggiatori. Il primo aspetto riguarda la configurazione degli spazi. La camera era stata pubblicizzata con una superficie di 24 mq, una dimensione che avrebbe garantito un certo comfort; tuttavia, la metratura reale è risultata essere drasticamente inferiore. Questa discrepanza tra quanto dichiarato in fase di prenotazione e l’effettiva vivibilità dell'alloggio solleva dubbi sulla trasparenza della proposta commerciale. Notevolmente più grave è la questione relativa al rigore igienico. Ho riscontrato una presenza pervasiva di insetti, in particolare scarafaggi, non solo all'interno della camera ma distribuiti nelle aree comuni dell'intera struttura. È evidente che gli standard di pulizia e manutenzione siano attualmente insufficienti a garantire un ambiente salubre e decoroso. L’unica nota lieta, che merita un sincero riconoscimento, è stata la gestione umana. La titolare si è dimostrata una persona estremamente ospitale, gentile e disponibile. È un vero peccato che tale spessore professionale e calore umano non siano supportati da una struttura all'altezza delle aspettative e delle tariffe richieste. Spero vivamente che la proprietà intervenga con una disinfestazione profonda e una revisione delle descrizioni fornite online, per allinearle alla realtà dei fatti.
Kurzer Weg in die City. Das Personal ist super freundlich und hilfsbereit.
Da fällt mir spontan nichts ein
La ubicación es excelente.
Las instalaciones eran un poco anticuadas. Tanto el aire acondicionado como el ventilador hacen mucho ruido.
Schönes großes sauberes Zimmer. Personal sehr freundlich, nett und hilfsbereit. Gute Lange

Great location and amazing breakfast
Buena ubicación, cama grande y cómoda. Buen aire acondicionado y ventilador adicional.
El inodoro estaba siempre atascado, por lo que tenía que avisar en recepción para que vinieran a desatascarlo. Entiendo que es un problema extendido en El Nido, pero igualmente es desagradable. La conexión WiFi era mala, no llegaba dentro de la habitación. El desayuno eran 2 huevos, 2 trozos de pan dulce y un plátano, demasiado básico.
Stuff member carer was so sweet and helpful when needed.
Cockroaches, mosquitoes, tiny bathroom/toilet, toilet smells very bad and does not flash down properly. Breakfast was rice was 3 small pieces of seasoned chicken and a small sunny side fried egg, sachet coffee or tea bag.
Le personnel était hyper gentil, ils ont contribué à rendre notre séjour encore plus agréable!! le petit déjeuner était aussi super
Recomand cu încredere raport/pret calitatea foarte buna , stafful locatiei extraordinar nota 10 ,Locatia in sine este foarte bine gandita SI cu atenție la detalii,ai o terasa din lemn un poti sta seara elegant. Camerele sunt mici dar isi fac treaba fara probleme .Locatia este foarte bine situata este la 5 min de mers spre plaja principală plus CA de acolo pleaca SI majoritatea companiilor cu excursii pe apa. Orașul este mic deci ai o concentrație de magazine mici deschise pana seara târziu.
Primul aspect, SI deja este o necesitate in 2026 nu doar un moft lipsa frigiderului in camera s au macar la comun tinand cond CA temperatura este in jur de 35-40 grade,in opțiune delux ai frigider dar daca camera este rezervată,este ceva extrem de rau sa nu poti tine ceva la rece macar unul comun pe fiecare etaj SI rezolva problema . Un pic de atenție la mobilier SI dus sunt bine. Iar al treilea aspect Wi-fi este ceva rau desi este de la Star Link .... Ceva extrem de rau.
Posizione centrale , gentilezza dello staff, colazione basic
Rumore della sala colazione
The location of this bed-and-breakfast was excellent. It was a great value for the money. We would stay here again.
Just wish the breakfast had a little more protein options. I don’t need eggs.
The staff were very kind and welcoming. The receptionist was extremely polite and helpful the entire time. In the morning, when you sit down for breakfast, you make your own coffee and she brings your breakfast to the table: pancakes with maple syrup and butter, a slice of toast, an egg, and a banana — perfect to start the day! The location is excellent, just a few steps from the main street and surrounded by restaurants. The bathroom also had great water pressure and a hot shower, which can actually be hard to find in this area!
All good!

Tiene muy buena ubicación!!!
El baño huele mal
Lokalizacja oraz pomocną obsługa
Pokój: stary, zaniedbany, ślady wilgoci na ścianach, okno wychodziło na podwórze więc nie można było odsłonić zasłon. Śniadanie bardzo ubogie: jedno ze jajko sadzona, dwa naleśniczki i banan.

inside the town, easy access

Location and woman who run the hotel is very very kind. We have booked all the tours with ger and also the scooter.
The problem of the toilet flush, you need to do it with a bucket of water like in many other hotel in El Nido. Shower was really good
Top Lage
Wenig Platz
הוסטל חמוד ממש במרכז, החדר ממש טוב בהשוואה לשאר המקומות באל נידו, יש מים חמים והבעלים של המלון ממש חמודים, מצעים נקיים.
ממש ממש רועש מהכביש, החדר שלי היה למטה והיה מלא רעש שהפריע לי הרבה פעמים לישון. השקעים הם שקעים שלא מתאימים לתקע של ישראל אז צריך מתאם… בכללי מקלחת ושירותים ממש ממש קטנים
Uniquement l'emplacement
L'insalubrité de la chambre, la saleté et les toilettes qui ne s'evacuaient pas.
We sytayed for 11 nights. Perfect location close to the main street, bars and restaurants. Quiet spot
There were days when we had to ask the host to clean the room. There was no schedule to it
The staff are nice.
The toilet will not flush well.

J’ai vraiment aimé cet hotel, il ressemble énormément à El nido dans sa décoration. Du premier jour que je suis rentré à cet hotel je me suis senti apaisé. L’hôtel est vraiment propre et la gestionnaire prend un énorme temps à bien nettoyer les couloirs. L’emplacement est stratégique et à 3 minutes à pied de la plage d’el Nido
Rien
The central location and the friendliness of the staff almost made up for the "quality" of the facilities. There was both aircon and fan in the room and they have coffee and water refill.
The shower is literally on top of the toilet seat so count a few hours between your shower and using the bathroom again. The walls are not only paper rhin but bad quality too, if you are on the ground floor you not only hear, but feel every step above you, the building structure resonates (even though your earplugs at night).
Alojamiento sin grandes pretensiones, que cumple su función. Habitación de tamaño medio con baño privado, todo limpio. Se puede elegir entre dos opciones de desayuno, que es básico (pero para empezar el día es correcto) El café lo puedes comprar en la cafetería de Rizal St. A destacar la amabilidad y disposición de la responsable del alojamiento
Está en una buena zona, cerca de las calles principales pero sin todo el bullicio. La dueña es muy amable, siempre pendiente de todo. Un día buceamos y nos preparó el desayuno antes de hora, otro nos los preparó para llevar porque teníamos que salir muy pronto al aeropuerto. También nos reservó un triciclo para ir al aeropuerto.
La ducha está justo encima del wc. En muchos alojamientos de Filipinas es así, pero personalmente no me gusta porque se queda todo mojado.
Nice people running the hostal
Quiet location mid center, near beach pickup point for boattours
La personne à l'accueil était adorable Petit déjeuner correct Chambre et hôtel très propres. Localisation parfaite. Centrale et silencieuse à la fois. Nous avons adoré notre séjour.
Rien.
Nous sommes arrivés avec 2 jours de retard à cause de l’annulation de notre ferry depuis Coron. Balay Paragua nous a logé dans un bâtiment annexe qui leur appartient : Mariela Hostel. Tout s’est bien passé
Outstanding atmosphere in the wooden hotel or Balay Paragua, Personal was always very friendly & helpful as well as available 24/7. The room was very comfortable & the location perfect to explore El Nido & the surrounding areas with small walking distances. Highly recommend the stay at Balay Paragua.

Clean Window Strong AC and fan for nice sleep Perfect breakfast, everyday something new Offers all the tours + scooter It was romantic wake up every morning for tasty breakfast and coffee on the balcony with sun shinning. Free water and coffee We loved our stay here
El lugar está bastante bien situado y la gente es amable.
No suelo criticar los lugares a los que voy porque tampoco pago mucho y me adapto bien, pero es cierto que deberían de revisar este lugar porque hay demasiadas cucarachas por todos lados..
Lokalizacja jest dużym plusem Zamieszanie przy zameldowania.Rezerwowalismy pokój z balkonem jednak nie byl dostępny. Dostaliśmy inny. Obsługa bardzo miła i pomocna (Mogliśmy zostawić bagaże do przechowania) Ogólnie polecam.
Was good value for money

This place offers excellent value for money. The staff is incredibly accommodating, and the room and bed are spotless.
The bathroom in our unit had an exhaust that wasn’t working, but it’s not a big deal.
Bien centré. Propre et sympa Présence à la teception
Les chambres du rez donne sur le hall du pt déjeuner La clim un peu bruyante
Location is superb
Bon emplacement, personnel au top, toujours au petit soin pour les clients merci à eux ! Petit déjeuner complet tous les matins.
Douches sur les toilettes, pas très confort, toilettes bouchés souvent à cause des inondations et chambres mal insonorisés on entend tout.
Pretty much just the location which was near the center.
It says here the deluxe double room was 24 squared meters. Not true at all, it’s a hole of at maximum 4 squared meters. You cannot even move into the room and you certainly cannot even open one cabin bag.
