20 August 2011 Danielle would recommend this property
Liked: The staff and guests were super helpful. Also, it's very close to the ferry terminals, which are the main jumping points to nearby islands, about P80 by taxi. It's about P280 from the airport on a metered taxi.
Disliked: I woke up with a rash and a ton of bug bites. There were no screens on the windows to our room. Other than that, we got what we paid for, a cheap place to sleep between a flight and a ferry.

Liked: I will give 100% rating to Cebu Guesthouse. Value for money. Actually i didnt expect it to be that good because of the the rate. It's really cheap! Wifi is free. I like the hot shower in the common bathroom. Its clean and always smells good. I cook my own food with no charge. I love touring Cebu and Mactan with the motorbike or scooter that i rented. Thanks for the discount. :)
Disliked: Couch in the sala needs repair.

Liked: Some of the staff were friendly and helpful. Others were less than willing to help answer questions. The first room that I stayed in was not that great. The second room with a bathroom was much better. I think the rooms upstairs are much nicer than the rooms downstairs.
Disliked: I stayed in two different rooms. Both rooms had a mouse running around the room, and this freaked me out since I had never had this experience. The bathrooms downstairs were not that clean. Sometimes there was no toilet paper. I just bought roll of t.p. to make sure I had some. They really need to clean the rooms better. The general areas are well-kept, but the bedrooms and bathroom downstair are in poor conditions.

Liked: The location was very central, right in the middle of everything - one end leads to Osmena Road, the other leads to Ayala mall. If you like walking, everything worth seeing within the city is reachable.
Disliked: I wasn't aware there was a lounge/common area with TV and some books until we were about to leave. Would've been nice to mingle with some folks and ask about places to visit.
