Ok stay
Staff was helpful however the hallway to my room smelt like cigarettes and my room could have been cleaner. The wifi also did not work and I had to walk to a cafe for wifi. Also there is no drinking water onsite so you’re forced to buy bottled water, which is not sustainable. There are also loud roosters and dogs barking nearby early in the morning so it’s hard to sleep in.

good base for trips in the surrounding.
the only disadvantage is that it is not located directly behind the beach, but at the main road with a block between the main road and the beach. But of course you pay more for a location bordering the beach (which is very noice but not suitable for swimming: too shallow). The room was clean and comfortable with enough space, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Wifi was sometimes weak.

Cold showers only! Bed was too short for me, I’m 6’3” and my feet were hanging off, also we had to share a small sheet for our blanket. AC was nice, free instant coffee was ok, TV was super fuzzy. They can do laundry but it takes a while cause no dryer. Staff was super nice and friendly.

Stress free DIY Family Vacay
I booked for two (2) family rooms for 2 nights. Me and my family enjoyed our stay in El Nido, because the owner and the staff are accommodating, friendly and they always response to me. The room is spacious and clean, they also have a free flowing coffee which I enjoyed because I'm a coffee lover. They also arranged our van transfer from and to Puerto Princesa-El Nido and arranged our private island hopping. For me its a stress free vacation even this is just DIY Family Tour. The only down side is they don't serve breakfast.

Thank you all at Buena' Haven Travelodge
Very friendly and informative owners, presented with a wonderful smile and very happy to give advice and local knowledge. Found the room comfortable, no more than needed, but certainly no less either. Easy to get to and from. Quiet nights for easy sleeping. Helpful with the organisation of activities and consolidating of payments. My only minor negative would have been the desire to pay by card, but respect this wasn't an possible. Location not the best for really close options, HOWEVER with three wheeler bikes it's very cheap and easy to get around to anywhere you needed. I recommend you travel in and out using the private airport and Air-Swift unless you intend to spend any time outside of the close proximity of El Nido! The extra expense is worth it.

Nice Stay.
The hotel is a really nice place near El nido town, there are no bugs in the room, A/C works well and you have Corong beach at walking distance (perfect site for the sunset). Bring your own shampoo and toiletries, the hotel only provides soap and toilet paper.

Good value for money
Stayed there for 3 nights. Location was good, the host was very friendly and informative. Everything was satisfied during our stay. But wifi didnt work well and barely no signals but I heard it is quite common in El Nido. It was overall very good value for money in El Nido where accomodations are much higher than other places in the Philippines.

Ok place, best AirCon, would stay there again.
It's quite noisy location- dogs, roosters, tricycles on the main road are keeping constant noise level, but it's nothing impossible to cope with. Only thing we didn't like was the light in the room- too cold, so no real issues for the price you pay. Other than that our best stay in ElNido with the most modern (for Phillis), most efficient and quiet air-con (had a fan also). Nice building, nice room, nice balcony with partial sunset view (we had deluxe on top floor), Great and dedicated staff (especially the singing cleaning lady), clean rooms, great beds, no internet (as almost everywhere in ElNido), one of the best places to eat in town just next doors. Change light bulbs, add more of water pressure, a small fridge and larger wardrobe and this would be a top hotel. It actually did match what you see in pictures. Definitely would stay here again- our second best stay in three weeks in Phillis, just after a start at resort.

Clean hotel in El nido
Is really hard to find some place clean in el Nido, And this hotel does, the staff is great and good location, only 20 minutos walking from el nido town or 5 minutes by tricicle.

Decent stay away from crazy downtown
Wonderful staff. They clean the room everyday like a hotel. We were fortunate to have the upstairs back room which was nice and quiet from the road noise. There are roosters that caw at 4am. 50 pesos for tricycles to town. 300 pesos to El Nido airport. Had a nice scooter for us to rent to go to Nacpan beach. In general the room is pretty expensive considering the cost of everything else in Philippines. Perhaps El Nido accommodations are exceptionally more expensive. Things to improve: - room is dark...hard to read and see things. Maybe add a floor lamp? - improve wifi....0.5MB/sec if you're lucky. Usually better connection at late hours. - perhaps add a simple breakfast in future? Would help justify the cost. Thanks!

Favorite place in the Philippines
We absolutely loved it here. the air conditioner was efficient and kept our room cool. The hotel is located just outside of town, a five minute trike ride from El Nido so, while you can get to town quickly, you don't have the be right in the middle of the hustle and bustle. 5 minutes in the other direction is a small local beach that's busy but never too crowded. The hotel staff was unbelievable. They handled everything we needed and took care of us like family. Karen was very helpful in arranging our tour and scooter rentals. Michael even helped us get the hang of riding the motorbike. The cleaning staff came every day when we left the room and did everything from arranging our stuff on the dresser to folding all our clothes. Best place to stay in El Nido hands down.
