    Good to be aware that the facilities are very basic, almost back to primitive. The town is build on the rice fields mountains, you have to be fit enough. Lots of stairs. Hike to viewpoint 3, with the roof, is very cool but challenging, really a climb, so you have to be physically fit (something good of locals to ask beforehand)

    Amazing view and location. Staff was really nice and accommodating. Even offered us a bigger than initially planned. Fun to bond with the locals of Batad! Offered great tour guides who showed us the in and outs of Batad!

    There is some noise from the animals and you need to wear good shoes either hiking shoes to walk all the way down. Although there are too much dogs. But be kind with them it will be good.

    The Guesthouse is lead by a wonderful woman. She takes care of you, offers tours and Do hiking with you. Furthermore she cooks really delicious filipino food and serve it well done.

    Nothing

    It is all about location, at the edge of the Batad cluster of the UNESCO designated Cordillera Rice Terraces. A bit of a challenging path leading to the guesthouse, but then it all opens up like an amphitheater, right from the bedroom. Nicely prepared meals, ice cold beers. Very friendly host family.

    Getting there is no joke. All the walking is either up or down. Recommend NOT brining a suitcase (learned this the hard way).

    The most picturesque place you can possibly imagine, overlooking the rice terraces. Facilities are very simple as you would expect. The family who runs the place is very friendly.

    It's a basic shared bathroom but that wasn't really a problem for me. Nice to be giving money to a local family.

    Lovely family hosts who were very welcoming. The view is amazing and I really enjoyed my evening meal. There is a nice terrace where you can appreciate the view from.

    Maybe a little cabinet for clothes or a nightstand would be convenient in the room.

    The view was stunning! Right between the rice terraces it felt surreal. Also, the staff was very kind and helpful.

    Room and bedroom very basic, but we knew that before coming. Many stair steps to reach the house, but we knew that before coming.

    The view was beautiful, host very friendly, she made us lunch and dinner. . Nice to learn how people work and live in the village.

    Limited options for food--- but again, not the proprietor's fault. The location itself is a secluded area, so only basic necessities present.

    The view was excellent. I will come back for the view. The proprietors were friendly, and they were doing their best to give good service to guests despite limitations in the area itself.

    You must be just aware that it is located 30 minutes trekking downhill to be reached. If you are not strong enough and not used to trek it can be challenging.

    The view is incredible and Irene and her family the most available. Her brother drove us to another city farther away to catch an earlier bus to Manila. So grateful!

    I think they should ask guests what their food preferences are pre arrival as they can then order in the relevant ingredients. The options I had though were still veggie and delicious.

    The location couldn’t have been better. A 24/7 view of the rice terraces. I would suggest getting offline maps as finding the property could be confusing otherwise.

    the bathroom is shared, but that is normal in these parts and in conjunction with everything else- who gives a crap! this is amazing!!!!!

    The location is beyond incredible, the family is the kindest and always offer their advice for routes etc. There is no pressure to purchase tours or activities, however the guides available are extremely knowledgeable. The home cooked meals are exceptional!
