Great Hotel but Little Out Of The Way
Clean nice rooms, pool, bar
7.3
The Hotel is very nice and the staff and owner really friendly,it is about a 10 minute walk to the beach, which not a problem for me might be too far for some people. the rooms are big and clean and include a refrigerator and kitchen area which would definitely suit longer stays, especially if you enjoy a quiet and relaxing setting.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
We negotiated directly with one of the promotion guides in the beach area for a sightseeing trip to see the main sites, chocolate hills, floating restaurant, Tasier sanctuary, and both traveled for the price quoted for one person at the hotel so worth bartering

I was looking for a place where I can totally relax and forget about everyday stress, and my children will enjoy at the same time. It turned out that Alona studios hotel was the perfect place!

A simple hotel but very functional. The owner/gen.manager has personally followed-up our shuttle bus when it was running a little bit late, isn't that good service ! Good job !
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
Find the right timming, I always want the sun set at the beach... picturesque.

Big rooms for family
Swimming Pool,Structure of the Hotel
7
The Rooms were Big enough and the surrounding of the hotel is clean. Swimming pool was clean & everyday someone is taking care of it. Staffs were great,accomodating and always with a smile. We just noticed that in the evening its very dark the hall & outside near the pool. It's very hard also that they dont have in house phone in the room, cutleries provided but its very dirty & they dont have their own restaurant all food will be order outside(other restaurant which is very expensive)They should have also a free pick up from the port to the hotel and vise versa because transportation is expensive.

Lovely hotel, quiet surroundings

I stayed in the family suite. It was clean and neat. It caters for all you need, and a hot water shower. If you need anything more, then you're probably not a mid-range budget traveler.
There is a beautiful large swimming pool, neatly kept.
People are friendly and accommodating.
It's about a 20 minute walk from the main Alona beach, but its relaxing and healthy, you can rent a motorcycle for 400 pesos a day if you prefer not to walk. At night the way may be a bit dark with poor lighting, but all mobile phones has a flashlight these days.
There is a bar which serves breakfast. 50 pesos will get you a great omelette.

small hotel in a quiet area
big rooms, nice pool, friendly staff
5.7
quite surprised that superior rooms are big. but my hubby is not really impressed with the beds. think the sheets needs to replaced as well as the towels are they are a bit old & worn out. the toilet seat cover in our bathroom was detached and it was actually on the flr. but good thing it was removed the next day. water from the shower tasted like saltwater. hope mgmt would do something to filter the water.
On the positive side, hotel owner and staff are very helpful and always with a smile. they will tricycle on ur behalf (as the hotel is in the inner area and not beach front).
