Like a few other reviews have mentioned, the staff seemed indifferent—not rude, but not particularly attentive either. During my stay, I had to switch rooms due to a change in my travel plans (unrelated to the accommodation). My first room was lovely, but the second, on the ground floor, lacked privacy as the curtains didn’t close properly and had a leaky shower.

The bed in our room is so low. I just wished they make it a level which people like me with back problem can easily go up every time i need to. Apart from that everything is ok!

It’s a very beautiful hotel. The architecture is really nice. Good value for money. The food and the people in the resto is very good too. Will definitely book this hostel when i get back in Dumaguete. 😊

The photos make it look nicer than it really is! The industrial-look is actually a bit harsh and there was mould in the shower.

The nearby restaurants were great. The cinnamon buns at the restaurant were amazing and go check out the Japanese place down the road

The standard room was located in the ground floor, right behind the lot where live music is played until 10pm. It felt more like an ill-maintained storage unit. The room only had one dim lamp, the faucet was coming off the wall, the plaster was crumbling, the bath full of mosquitos, and other friends (cockroaches, tikis). When we asked for an additional blanket, they wanted to charge extra. With this little of a price difference to the deluxe room, the gap in service was not at all justified and you will get better value for money somewhere else.

We booked two different rooms. The first few nights we spent in a deluxe double, located at the upper floor. The room was really spacious and well-equipped with large windows and a nice bathroom. Since we liked the room, we extended but only a standard room was available for the additional night, no problem, so we thought.

The water pressure for the shower on the 2nd floor, private room and private bathroom was so low it could barely wash me. The water also came out brown after the rain. Because of the architecture, while nice, is somewhat open air so cigarette smoke and mosquitos get into the room.

Close to the university, the waterfront, and restaurants. The design of the hotel was pretty cool. Bed was also quite comfortable. Appreciate the availability of filtered water for drinking.

Open space. Interior design. Spacious bed. Close to airport and nearby restaurant.

As it is near to the road, it might be a bit noisy, especially at night when the street gets busy. There is no heater in the bathroom as well.

I like the setup of the room. very comfortable and allow us to have our own privacy. the place are clean as well. It is very comfortable.

I stayed at the Flying Fish two times. On my second time the room was very noisy for some reason, looked like someone was walking on top of the ceiling window, also a/c is pretty old and noisy too. there’s no way to regulate the temperature of the water. apart from these details, everything was perfect!

Perfect location close by the airport, rooms are simple but very clean, lots of space where to chill even after check out time, staff is very kind, breakfast is delicious!

Wish they had curtains for each bunkbed!

I like that it’s very spacious and clean. I also love the cafe/resto right beside it.

Their towels (not that clean) and pillows (not that comfortable) can be improved.

Location as it is near the airport

They could've added an extra small table and chair

Spacious room. Super affordable!

I’m not sure if not so clean faucet and shower head is part of the aesthetic but I wish they clean it better to avoid doubts. I guess there’s a fine line between achieving the distressed rusty theme w/o doubting the cleanliness.

Location is near to the airport; theme of the structure is interesting

What we found disappointing is the poor data signal and the fact that although we were provided with the WiFi access code, the WiFi itself wasn't functional at all.

Location: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We loved the hotel's location because it's conveniently close to everything we needed.

Staff didn't have a transport contact - might be good to include in the future to help people get to other destinations eg Dauin 😊

Good for a nights stay. Close to the airport and good food options. We had the private rooms and they were comfortable and secure.

The outlets on my bunk are loose

Near the airport and dgt port, staff are very nice and accomodating. Wifi is good, clean facilities

The private room didn't have a fan nor bed-side light. It did have AC but I prefer a fan to AC. I had a few mosquitoes during the night, so a mosquito net or a fan might be something to add. In the dorm, the staff couldn't find the correct key for the locker.

I booked one night in the dorm and one night in a private en-suite. The dorm was very good, with lots of safe storage space under the bed, and more space at bed level to have my luggage. There was even a rack to hang a towel or fabric for some privacy. No issues with mosquitoes in the dorm, probably because it has AC and a fan. I loved the style of the hostel. Bed was very comfy. Breakfast in the cafe next door was very nice. Close to lots of nice restaurants. Staff was useful. Would love to stay there again.

Love the minimal/concrete look. Bed was very comfortable.

Location is a bit far away from the main area, there also isn’t much around the hostel either

The hostel itself was really nice, we stayed in the private double room and everything was great
