HIS Capsule Hostel — Hotel in Tacloban

Place is clean and well-maintained. Staff is also friendly. Location is good and it's a 5min ride to the malls. One of the things that I don't like is that there's a CCTV inside the room so my privacy is violated. The WiFi is also unstable due to unresponsive DNS servers. Outgoing connections to external DNS servers are blocked, so you can't fix this on your end without circumventing the firewall. Other than those issues, the place is OK. It's also quiet and I had a nice sleep.

They accept GCash and Maya transfers. Advance booking is also allowed, and you’re required to pay a booking fee, which will be deducted from the total room charge. A 200-peso security deposit is also required, which will be returned...

En route to Samar, I was searching for a place to stay for a night and that is within budget. Thank goodness I found His Capsule Hostel. It was so close to the airport and the easy to get to the downtown area. ||||The hostel is very clean and the staff was very friendly. For backpackers or solo travelers, they have capsule beds where you can stay for a night. They also have barkada rooms and family rooms if you are traveling with a big group. Sleep quality was very nice. The mattress was really good, pillows firm, air conditioning works really well, and the hot/cold shower worked perfectly! ||||The Wi-Fi works really well and very stable making it a favorite tambayan for students or those doing group study sessions. ||||A hostel worth considering when...
