Bahay ni Tuding Inn & Bistro — Hotel in Davao City

Let's get one thing straight: it's an inn, period. It does not have a "touch of 5-star hotel" anywhere, as it says in the description. Don't expect anything grand, it really is for budget-conscious travellers. Stayed at a couple room. AC was cold but was located at the foot of the bed facing the opposite wall, so the cool air couldn't reach the bed even with the air swing on. Room smelled old, like it hasn't been used for some time. Had insect bites as soon as we entered the room, which I later found out was due to the open window. At night, you could hear faint music from outside even with windows closed. Cable TV was a joke - working channels were only like 5 out of 50. Bed was noisy and would squeak even with the slightest movement. Bathroom had no bidet or at least a "tabo." There wasn't any kind of divider between the shower and the toilet, so the floor would get soaked.||||The only good things about this inn: ||1. Free breakfast consisting of toast, butter, jam, homemade yogurt, and coffee||2. Location - there was Mercury Drug and Watsons along the street, and walking distance to Museo Dabawenyo, San Pedro cathedral, city hall, some parks, and a handful...

Location is really nice! Minutes away from the usual tourist attractions like parks and museums while 30-40mins away from Davao airport. A few steps to the busy san pedro street are jeeps and taxis, stores such as mercury drug, watsons, jollibee, dunkin donuts, grocery. It’s such a convenient place for a tourist.

The rooms were simple; don’t expect a 5-star interior. It offers the essentials like hot shower, ref, table, tv, rack for your clothes, the basic ones.

The staff were so friendly and accommodating. :)

Their complimentary breakfast is comprised of toasted bread, jams, fruits, instant coffee, and amazing-cool-homemade yogurt! (You have been informed, don’t expect “silog meals”)

We tried their sisig and bulalo for lunch, and we enjoyed it very well! the aligue rice was also great!

Near City Hall and San Pedro Cathedral. Small, basic and clean rooms (there are 2 or 3 family rooms that are quite spacious and can comfortably fit 3 adults). Good base for exploring Davao City. Staff provided information on where to go and how to get to places of interest. Public transportation is available round the clock along San Pedro Street. Fastfoods, convenience stores, NCCC supermarket, Mercury drugstore (24 hours) in the area. Restaurants along parallel Rizal Street. Museo Dabawenyo is an easy 5 minute walk away. Downtown location without the noise. Free wifi. Really good value.

Dining room quite small and has limited...
