The hype
Travelers appreciate the pool and the quiet atmosphere but universally hate the uphill walk and the weak water pressure.
Mountain View Garden Inn Coron
$35-85 / noć
Rezervirajte ovaj smeštaj ako You have strong legs, a tight budget, and want a pool view without the town noise.
Zašto Ljudima Sviđa
- Quiet location away from the main road bustle
- Refreshing outdoor pool with mountain views
- Budget-friendly rates for families and groups
Brzi pregled: A budget basecamp that makes you work for your stay with a steep uphill climb and spotty utilities.
Pregledano od @letsgowithmiklo: I was honestly surprised by this spot! The room is cozy, but pulling back the curtains to find a private balcony overlooking the pool was a game-changer. It’s super close to Carl’s BBQ and the nightlife, making it the perfect crash pad for my Coron adventures.

Reality check
You will likely be charged for 'extras' like a second towel or housekeeping, and the 'mountain view' is often just a view of the hotel's own garden or construction.
- You are fit and don't mind a daily cardio workout to get home
- You want a pool to cool off in after island hopping
- You prioritize silence over strong WiFi
Čistoća i održavanje
5.5
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Guests report missed days, having to beg for fresh towels, and a 'housekeeping fee' for service that should be standard.
- Bathroom hygiene: Major weak point. Complaints of moldy grout, sinks turning black with moss, and ants.
- Maintenance: Aging property. Broken toilet locks, peeling paint, and the aforementioned water pressure issues are common.
- Linens & towels: Worn and thin. Check for stains upon arrival and request changes immediately if needed.
- Odors & scents: Generally neutral, but musty smells in bathrooms due to poor ventilation and water leaks are reported.

Česta pitanja i skriveni saveti
Sve što zaista trebate da znate pre nego što rezervirate.
Is the breakfast worth waking up for?
It's a basic Filipino 'silog' (rice, egg, meat) meal. Edible and convenient, but not worth setting an alarm for if you prefer sleeping in.
Can tricycles really not make it up the hill?
Some drivers refuse because the grade is steep and the road can be slippery. Be prepared to walk the last 100 meters.
Is there hot water?
Theoretically yes, but pressure is low and it's often lukewarm at best. Don't expect a steaming spa shower.
Do they provide pool towels?
Yes, but they are often strict about returning them and may charge for extra requests.
Is it safe to walk back at night?
Yes, the area is generally safe, but the road is dark. Use your phone flashlight.
Are there hidden fees?
Watch out for the 'housekeeping fee' (PHP 200) and potential charges for extra linens or early check-in.
Insajderski saveti
- ✨
Some rooms have a 'hidden balcony' behind the heavy curtains that guests don't notice immediately—check behind the drapes!
- ✨
Walk down the hill to 'Summer Cafe & Bar' for a better coffee than the hotel offers.
- ✨
If the tricycle driver refuses the hill, offer an extra 20 pesos; sometimes that changes their mind.
5 stvari koje trebate znati prije nego što krenete
💡The 'Hidden Room': One guest reported finding a creepy, unfinished void/room accessible via their bathroom.
💡The strict 7:30 AM breakfast cutoff is real—they will pack up the food while you are watching.
💡Ants are a common roommate; keep all snacks sealed in the fridge or hard plastic containers.
💡The 'Mountain View' is often blocked by new construction or just looks at the hotel's own retaining wall.
💡Slippery when wet: The tiled stairs and walkways become an ice rink after rain or pool use.
