Nice staff. Could use a couple improvements”
Place was clean, staff was interested in be helpful, and ac and hot water worked well. But there wasn’t any towel racks or anywhere to hang anything in the bathroom. Also, no toilet paper holder. Bathrooms are small and shower isn’t separated, so water goes all over. Oh and included breakfasts were good.

Comfortable stay”
Place is clean. Location is great as it is close to the docking station and close to the "bayan." We had some hiccups in the room(water heater broken and no water coming out) but the owner and staff were very quick to respond. Sanho is highly recommended.

Nice! ”
The place is nice, location is walking distance from the port where all the boats are leaving for the day trips. However most of the tours provide transportation, so I am not sure if that’s a good bonus or not. The rooms are clean, they are being cleaned every day. They bring you clean towels and appliances. There is a little fridge, which is also a plus. The breakfast is okay. The cons are that the bathroom gets flooded when you shower and it takes very long time for the water to go away. So at a point you end up going to the bathroom and step in a deep pool of water. Also, it is very noisy for some reason, until late night, every night. Loud music, people singing. If you are a light sleeper, bring earplugs or pick a different place to stay at. Other than that, our stay was perfect.

Central and overall decent places, though couple things could be better”
Centrally located near the area where tour boats depart from. Accommodation mostly ok, generally clean except for the big cockroach I found on my last day. Bathroom tiny and not very comfortable, you're pretty much showering over the wash basin. Wash basin was cracked and chunk of it chipped off - a more decent place shouldn't use anything like that. My room was pretty quiet so no complaints there. Breakfast nothing spectacular but at least they don't let you completely hungry.

Nice clean room”
A nice hotel near the port where you have the tour in the morning. Pros: big and clean room , nice breakfast on the third floor with view, good value for money, free and fast Wi-Fi Cons: I just didn’t like the bathroom. It didn’t have a window, it was small and there was no shower box so when you take a shower it gets messy as water goes everywhere. All in all it was a nice hotel for a short stay in Coron so I definitely recommend it.

Very good”
Free breakfast is a bit small in serving but tastes good. Staffs were amazing. No hot shower though in our room. Overall experience is great. I recommend Coron Sanho Pension House to other tourists who wants to visit Coron.

Good for short stay”
The rooms were clean but stuffy. Shower room/toilette is really small, everything inside the gets wet when you shower. Staff were friendly and location is very close to everything. Overall, for the price it's ok for a 1 night stay but not longer.

I paid for 4 nights checked out after 1 night..”
The place is at the end of the road , the room was like an oven , the aircon just blew hot air on me , took 1/2 hour to get a safe . They advertise wifi but its is not in your room ,you sit in a hallway, even there in the hallway I had zero wifi , I did not sleep as it was so hot , could not wait to get out the next morning as soon as I found another hotel. No restaurants nearby , no breakfast available. I would not recommend to anyone but absolute hard core who can accept this level of service...

Hello sir Brian, Thank you for review us, we are so sorry about the bad experience, then we dont agree some part, first of all, you are just checked out without informing us so we coudnt deal with your aircon problem, we found out your aircon was set up with the fan mode. we wondered you even can read english then why set up high fan mode. we regret that once you ask us, it could be sloved simply. and the wifi. When you ask us the wifi, we set up the wifi machine in your room directly. and about the breakfast, you booked with the promo price of room only. then you could order in our reataurant if you want breakfast. but if you brought ur own food in the room, we can accept also. we are just say sorry not to communicate well. regards.
Try something else”
50% less than what you see on the pictures. Rats, bugs and Huge spiders! Extra noisy AC units, witch work at 30% of the power, and were cleaned and maintained 4 years ago :)))

I CHOSE SANHO BASED ON THE GOOD REVIEWS AND I WAS VERY SATISFIED”
The hotel is relatively new, owned and run by Koreans, and is very well-maintained and clean. The staff are helpful and courteous. The breakfast provided with the room was good and in generous proportions. Our room even had a small safe, a ceiling fan (aside from the aircon) and a small ref (which we did not use). My biggest complaint about Sanho is that the bathroom had no towel rack. So no choice but to leave and retrieve the towel from the bedroom after using the comfort room every time. This left the floor in the bedroom (near the CR door) constantly wet. Also, there's a rather dirty docking area of boats right behind the hotel. Though in fairness, no smell entered the hotel room. Overall, my 3 night stay was a positive one and I would stay here again the next time I come back to Coron.

had such a great stay at Sanho.”
We had such a great stay at Sanho. The room was spacious enough to put our big luggage.( Since we planned to travel for 1 month) The room is clean and tidy. They clean our room everyday and the staffs are kind and did everything that we needed during the stay. the meals are great there. breakfast was just awesome and the owner is such a great cook. There is a diving shop that they run. so we did diving as well. The diving was awesome too. they take care of everything even the little thing that bothers you. try staying at Sanho. It's worth the stay and divings

Good wifi sometimes”
This is a Korean owned Hotel. The breakfasts are okay but if you order Korean food at night for dinner the food is excellent probably one of the best places to eat in coron. The rooms are large with good air conditioning and hot water there's not much Western TV channel. The beds are a bit hard but I slept okay. Of 6 outlets in the room only three work. There's something wrong and very difficult to plug in to some of them. Do not trust their airport transfer we had a 10:30 pickup scheduled. By 10:45 we have them call the driver a couple times. He said he would be 5 minutes and made up some excuse about traffic and checkpoints he ended up being 25 minutes late the trip to the airport only takes 30 minutes. After he picked us up he had to pick up more people to fill the van so we did not even leave Coron until after 1100. the time that we were supposed to be at the airport. then when we got to the airport and the driver asked for money even though we had paid the hotel the night before. He did not want us to go into the airport until he could call the hotel and confirm ....at this point we were done with him. Beware and plan accordingly

Nice budget hotel”
I stayed for 5 nights and I don't have any complaints. Location is very good, close to the harbor, public market and the center of town. The place is clean and staff are friendly and helpful. The free breakfast is okay. They have cable TV and wifi works in the room, although it's slow which is common in Coron. There's a refrigerator in our room which is good. The bed is a bit hard but it's okay I still slept comfortably. Compared to other hotels in Coron I think this one is value for money.

Highly recommended!!!”
The place is located near the port where the island tours start (which is the reason why you will travel to Coron). The surrounding is like a local community but their room is very clean, well ventilated and spacious. Breakfast was served every morning and you get to choose from the menu which is another plus point for the hotel. You no longer need to worry where and what to eat in the morning before the tour starts because they will serve you enough food that you need before you go on your island adventure. Hotel staffs were very kind, polite, helpful and hospitable! Ask them anything and they'll do it, they'll help you in any way that they can. For dinner or snack time, tricycle was very accessible for you to go to the town center and find a restaurant to eat. We ended up walking to and from the hotel whenever we go outside to look for food. It's not that far, about a 5-in walk.

Good overall”
Coron itself is a rustic, authentic town and (while I can't speak of other accommodation) it seems as though you'd be pushed to find somewhere of a much higher standard in the location, the hotel exceeded my expectations and we had a great time in Coron. Reading some recent reviews before staying here I was apprehensive but it seems as though the owners have also read them because I'm pleased to say we were given a receipt with our deposit and refunded with no issues; the staff were friendly and spoke English at least on some level; our room was clean, spacious, comfortable and made up every day and our door was never left unlocked. It is also a central location so we could walk everywhere which was a big plus. However there was a large group of Korean tourists staying when we were there, I think taking up most of the rooms, which made for a busy and noisy breakfast. Breakfast itself wasn't great, wifi was weak and we kept having to ask for more toilet paper. The hotel is in a lively area so expect some noise, I had asked for a quiet room in advance but had no response to my messages. Overall a good stay but could still do with some improvements.

Good for a few nights”
+ good location, close to boat tours,market,shops,restaurants + wi-fi in room ( ground floor room #102 ) strong wifi for coron + big sized room, has safe in room and private bathroom + staff very friendly and helpful + good aircon which is a must with the hot weather - breakfast very small portions, not enough for western tourists. ( although, breakfast was free with my booking so no major complaint.. ) - bathroom fairly dirty, bedsheets and towels were not very clean. - no window in room #102 ( the upside though is there is very little noise heard from inside the room ) - bed was hard Would stay here again, was a good 5D4N stay here in Coron. Private boat tour taking us to Tour B locations was amazing, highly recommend( ask for tour guide Edison he will swim with you, let you feed hundreds of fish and inform you about everything! ) ! Also Tour A boat tour with tour guide J/Jeffery was 10/10 as well!

Really great staff, decent value ”
The staff were so nice and friendly from the start. Helped us book our boat to El Nido and gave us fresh towels any time we asked. The room was ok, basic and did the job for us as we just wanted a base to explore coron. Location is good, few mins walk to all the main restaurants and tour offices and away from the noisy road so it was nice and quiet for sleep. All in all, decent value but nothing fancy. There was a weird musty smell in the room but it was always kept clean and the staff were supper. Breakfast was basic but fine.
