Prime beachfront location right next to D'Mall
Unexpected freebies like afternoon 'merienda' snacks and night-time sweets
Rooftop pool offers a perfect sunset vantage point away from the beach crowds
Краткий обзор: A hyper-central crash pad that kills it on service and free snacks but struggles with claustrophobic, windowless rooms.
Подтверждено @Awaywithjess: I honestly didn't expect this level of detail! Walking into my room to find a handwritten note and treats was such a sweet touch. The rooftop pool became my go-to spot for sunsets away from the crowds, and having White Beach right downstairs made everything so easy.

The hype
Travelers rave about the incredibly friendly staff and the 'heart of the action' location.
Reality check
The windowless rooms feel damp and small, with some guests reporting dim bathroom lighting that makes getting ready difficult.
You prioritize being steps away from bars, D'Mall, and the beach path
You love free food (afternoon snacks, welcome drinks, turn-down sweets)
You plan to spend 90% of your time outside the room
Чистота и уход
8.8
Housekeeping: Daily service is consistent and praised; staff are proactive about sand control.
Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean grout and surfaces, but drainage issues ('water logging') in showers are a recurring complaint.
Maintenance: Newer property (opened ~2023), so paint and fixtures are fresh, though windowless rooms feel stuffy.
Linens & towels: Crisp and white, though beach towels can run out during peak hours.
Odors & scents: Lobby smells fresh; windowless rooms carry a risk of damp/musty odors due to lack of ventilation.

FAQ и советы
Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.
Is there a pool?
Yes, a small but scenic infinity pool on the roof. It's great for sunsets but small for laps.
Do all rooms have windows?
No. A significant number of rooms are windowless. You must book a 'Seaview' or specific category to ensure a window.
Is breakfast included?
Yes, a daily buffet breakfast at Hakuna Matata restaurant is typically included in the rate.
How far is the beach?
Zero meters. You step out of the lobby directly onto the White Beach path.
Is it quiet at night?
Not really. Station 2 is the busiest part of Boracay. Expect music and crowd noise until at least midnight.
Is there an elevator?
Yes, there is an elevator, which is a rare perk for smaller hotels in this area.

The 'merienda' (afternoon snack) is served around 3:30 PM at the pool — don't miss the free desserts.

There is a foot washing station at the front entrance; use it to avoid tracking sand into your room (and avoiding fines).

If you have a late flight, the hotel will let you use the shower facilities after check-out.
