        Nice hotel in Sabang”

        We stayed in Sabang for one night to visit Underground river. Dayunan hotel is situated in front of the pier. Room isn't very large, but clean. There is air condition in the room, but only since 16:00 till 07:00, as there is not electricity in Sabang.

        The hotel is great.. Simple and clean, right by the action and definitely the best in the price range... The reception lady Dorothy was great and super friendly.. She organised the underground permits and all that for us, which I highly highly recommend giving a miss.... The caves are beautiful but the guides and million other tourists make a joke of the "natural beauty"... Sabang is a very pretty place on its own, let the zillion tourists head for the caves while u enjoy the ways in the bay and a beer afterwards

        Good choice in Sabang”

        The Dayunan Tourist Inn is a great choice for a short stay in Sabang. We stayed 2 nights and found it to be simple but practical. The air-con was reliable for the most part, although it is worth noting power in the rooms is only available over night. The location of the inn is as central as you can get- it is right opposite the docks where boats for the Underground River depart, and is less than 100 metres from minivan pick-up/ drop off to other towns. There are plenty of eating options around. Wi-fi in the lobby seemed decent. Balcony was a lovely bonus.

        I left my bag at the nearby canteen and we left for the city. More than 30km away, i realize i left my bag and i only have the number of Dayunan. Fortunately, Dayunan has my bag as the canteen people turned it over to them. I was impressed by their honesty!!! The bag contains quite some cash and expensive dslr camera. They are also polite and has even waited for us even when we usually came very late at night.

        Better than expected!”

        After reading some horrific reviews we were really not looking forward to our stay here but it was perfectly fine. The room was small but with a double bed and private toilet/shower room. The room was clean enough and had AC. There is no electricity from 6AM to 6PM but we were on vacation so didn't spend the days in the room. The only time we saw any staff was during check in which was quick and painless. Location was amazing, Sabang is beautiful. The only downside was no hot water, there is no option to adjust the temperature on the shower and the weather wasn't that hot when we were there but we managed. On the other hand, I would absolutely NOT recommend Agoda to book hotels. Totally useless service!

        Friendly service, good location

        No hot water shower. Electricity from 6pm to 6am only (generator). But then there is no regular electricity in Sabang. Friendly staff who did their best to accommodate our many requests. Great location for going on the underground river tour - ask the staff for help in securing the permits, boat etc - we DIYed instead of getting a package tour.

        nice rooms and location”

        on the sabang port/terminal, really near the beach and convenience stores, AC and clean bathrooms

        There was no problem searching for the hotel as it was right on the terminal. The hotel is literally a short walk away from the beach (walk down the steps of the terminal and you're on the beach) and the beach is fantastic. The rooms came with 3 single beds which they allowed us to join together. The bathroom was clean with hot showers (hot showers after 6pm only). There was a small deck outside each room too but be careful not to leave anything outside (if you're on the ground floor) as the planks on the fence are a bit widely spaced so people outside can see everything. (A few kids playing on the street actually got a slipper in our deck and wanted to jump the fence so just be wary) Although the room is good and comfy, at night there was a basketball game on the terminal so there was a really loud commentator + loud music blasting til about 1am. Also, the AC wasn't working at first so we had to use our own powerboard to connect the AC's plug to another socket. be reminded that power switches off in sabang so you'll only have power from 6pm-6am. Despite a few hitches, the stay was still pleasant. The receptionist allowed us to keep our bags in the rooms past checkin while we were at our underground river tour --that was really kind of her. If you plan to go on the underground river tour, it won't be a problem as the port's right outside the hotel.

        Location, Balcony and view

        We found this a really good one night stop over to allow us to see a little more of Sabang than a day trip would have done. It was really worth the stay. The hotel is centrally located and we had a great balcony view of the comings and goings in Sabang. Electricity is only on 6pm to 6am, but this is standard. Our only reservation in not writing a more positive review is that whilst the staff were very helpful and friendly, when they helped us book and pay for our onward transportation, we found out later that we paid considerably more than the normal price - makes us wonder who made some money out of us that day? Whilst we put it down to travelling woes - just be aware.

        Dont understand bad raiting for that hotel. In middle class accomodation in Sabang its the best option. Otherwise you can stay in crap bungalows around or fancy, but very expensive resorts. Miss just hot shower. Definitelly reccomend it.

        Location, clean room, fast check-in & out

        Dayunan is a centrally located budget inn. It's ideal for a one person, one night stay.If your going to the underground river, the loading dock is right across the street. If you stay here the day before your tour you can secure a underground river permit for the following day. It's very easy. The receptionist walks you across the street and signs you up. No hassle. Keep in mind there is not any electricity in Sabang from 6am to 6pm every day. Dayunan offers you a no frills small clean modestly priced room.

        We asked the staff to book us a private transfer to puerto princesa airport. The lady at the reception organized that for us without giving us a receipt for the payment. The van that picked us up was not private at all. We had to go and pick up other people in other hotels in sabang and paid even more than the others! We nearly missed our flight because of the delay! The rooms are ok and clean but the bed is too small for two people.

        An excellent choice if you you do not want to stay in luxury resorts or cheep beach huts. The rooms upstairs has view over the Sabang pier which is across the street. Th location is very central and you have all the services that Sabang offers literally around the corner. You may order breakfast in the reception.

        This hotel is directly in front of the boarding area for the underground river

        The hotel stay was great. I loved the proximity of the hotel to the Permit for entry to underground river. As we had not bought a permit at palawan( we went straight to el nido and then to sabang) It was extremely convenient to get to the permit area. I would stay here again. There only appeared to be one person manning reception. Cleaners were non existant. He was there 24 hours.

        location, staff, beach

        Very nice lady at the front desk helped us with everything needed for a visit to the underground river. But somewhat more to smile would be great :) Sabang beach is amazing with clean water ...

        Very good location but poor service”

        We booked standard room for 1 night because wanted to go for Under Ground River Tour (UGRT) the Next morning. The location of the hotel is very strategic, just opposite the tourism office. I regret to book the UGRT tour through the hotel, the receptionist asked us to wait at the lobby before 8.00 am but until 8.20 am she was not at the office, until we told the other staff we were going to cancel the tour then she took another 15 minutes to show her face. For those stayed over night in Sabang should not have problem to do this tour DIY. You can go to the tourism office at Sabang Pier before 8.00 am to get the permit , pay the terminal and the boat fees, definately very much cheaper and can start the Tour earlier. Overall the room quite clean and comfortable if your luggage is small. The cons are the electricity supply from 6.00 pm until about 7.00 am. There is no breakfast and no drinking water.

        Great location at underground river dock,, Many choices for food just outside”

        Great place to stay that is reasonably priced THE BIG PLUS FOR ME WAS Air Conditioning AT NIGHT WHILE I SLEEP.. And Great location.. The entire town closes at 6 pm so be prepared for dark quiet night with maybe a peaceful walk on the beach for entertainment.. No Electric from 6am to 6 pm for the hotel.. The whole city runs on generators and no electric service. Some nice restaurants along the beach near the hotel for pizza snack at night too... Very peaceful and beautiful beachtown.. Enjoy

        Pretty decent for the price. Aircon wasn't always working though, occasional brownouts. Convenient location in Sabang town centre.

        Don't sleep in Sabang unless you go for a resort!!”

        Super overpriced!!!

        No value for money! The hotel offers a very poor service for the price they charge. Sabang is very small and as it has the "underground river" they really overprice as there aren't much options. If I would visit it again, I would definitely sleep in Puerto Princesa and make a round trip by van to Sabang. Otherwise there are 2 very nice resorts there but quite expensive. It is a option for those who look for comfort.
