Auberge de jeunesse prĂšs de Plage principale d'El Nido Ă El Nido
There's a snack bar/deli on site. You can enjoy a drink at the bar/lounge. Public spaces have free WiFi. A library, a terrace, and barbecue grills are also featured at Spin Designer Hostel. Self parking is free.
The room and bathroom were clean but there seemed to be a damp problem so the whole room was wet when we arrived, kept the air con on to dry everything but each day we would come back and everything was damp again (as they would turn off the air con). Maybe something to do with the time of year we were there. Otherwise very convenient location and good value for money.
Lots of small things that added up to this not being a nice experience. Maybe because it is low season, but zero hostel vibes. There were actually families staying with small kids that would literally start screaming and shouting at 7am and won't stop. Ants everywhere, to the point that it was impossible to eat some of the things at breakfast. Cockroaches in the room. Staff asking me over breakfast to rate the hotel online with a QR code, and then it actually turned out to be their bar. Did not enjoy my stay and would not recommend.
Positives
Really nicely decorated hostel
Room had A/C and fan
Spacious dorms with plenty of sockets and storage
Bed had privacy curtains, seemed to be extra wide and were very comfortable
Excellent breakfast and staff will cook pancakes and omelettes fresh.
Excellent location only 5 minutes from El Nido centre and is quiet
Staff are excellent and impeccably polite, helpful and courteous
Negatives
Socket can be difficult to reach for upper bunk
Upper section of walls have window facing hallway, which was lit at night
The shared bathrooms are generally clean, but needed to be cleaned more often
Too many of the soap/shampoo dispensers in the showers were broken`
Bellissimo ostello di design.
Colazione ottima e personale molto gentile.
Si trova in una zona buia per camminare a piedi la sera, consiglio di portare una torcia o girare con un mezzo.
Tornerei molto volentieri
The design of this hotel is actually beautifully put together, the staff is super friendly, and the rooms are spacious, with comfortable beds and great locker configuration! The toilets are spacious (including the showers that have space to get changed). Would 100% stay again!
