Kalibo Homestays

We stayed here because I just wanted to get out of the house, (we're locals) and book a hotel with a pool so we can swim but we were very disappointed. The swimming pool had those black worms (I took a photo of it) so instead of swimming in the pool, I ended up just sitting in the pool with my feet on the floor. And there were also this bugs that bite you in the pool which where so itchy. On top of that, there were only 2 pillows on the bed so if you are travelling as a couple, you are gonna have to pay an extra 50 pesos for an extra pillow. And the weirdest thing of all, this is literally the only hotel I have ever been my entire life that did not serve coffee in the morning. I asked the receptionist if they had coffee or something and they told me they did not have coffee. The only thing I would say is acceptable was the cleanliness of the room. They have clean rooms and it smells good specially when you enter the room for the first time.

It is located right in the middle of the Kalibo city. The check in was smooth. The receptionist was very polite and accommodating. The fan room was basic with shared bathroom. The bathroom could be cleaner though. The wifi reached room but had no internet. I had to use the wifi at reception area. Overall, I had a basic but pleasant stay.

I was confused whether this is Redoorz Hotel or Hotel Metro. It was located close to Kalibo public market, walking distance to places I wanted to see (piña cloth making; pasalubong; must-try chorizo; walking distance to Gaisano and City Mall. Wifi service was fast enough per Philippine standards. The hotel was unfinished and depends on which room you will be assigned, one will be lucky to have a complete set of furnishing. Most of the rooms were spacious but the toilet and bath significantly varies (most were small and tight) and the tap water has a foul smell. It heats fast though, The corridors and hallways were very narrow, dark and takes sometime to get oriented with the room numbering. The rooms were not as clean. There are other hotels in town close to the same price that are worth the value for money but not this one.

Worse hotel I have EVER stayed in - shower not connected with bare wires hanging down the wall and room smelt badly of mould - 2nd room curtains and fixings fell off the wall when closed, power kept tripping when shower turned on - sink tap swivelled 360 degrees No facilities provided as stated (ie - coffee) - 2 young staff - male helpful but female clearly hates job with big attitude - this is a VERY basic squat and not even worth the cheap option

It is very close to Kalibo Airport. Since we had an early flight the next morning, we spent one night here in advance. Overall, it's quite satisfactory. The door lock still has an old-fashioned key structure. There is a 7-11 convenience store and a 24-hour McDonald's one kilometer away. Don't have too high expectations. The price is there.
