OYO 712 Island Hop Nido Hostel — Hotel in El Nido

I've read few reviews about Island Hop and the dog is sometimes mentioned and when we stayed there for 2 nights, Charlie (the dog) is indeed waited in the entrance :) Well, this review is about the hotel, not Charlie.||So here it goes. ||Location.

Originally reserved this place for 5 nights because we had heard that Corong-Corong was a great place to be, little did we know how expensive it was!! We reserved ahead for a private room with 2 single beds AC and private bath. Upon arrival, they demanded full payment of all nights. We refused and payed 2500php for one night!!! Our room was basically basement level and had a very strong damp odor. Blinds in the window were completely f**ked and didn’t block any of the light. Wifi completely nonexistent except rooftop lounge where it is very very slow. Shower was decent, we had hot water. Flat screen tv in room. Clean linens. Included breakfast was ok.
