This hostel was just what we needed after travelling up from Bohol, arriving at 11pm and having to leave again at 4am to get my flight back to the uk. Location wise therefore excellent for the airport. Took us between 10 & 15 mins to and from airport. It is someone's personal apartment in which they have adapted a couple of rooms to accommodate approx 10 people in total. So it is very small and intimate and no common area as such. Perfectly pleasant young man who 'checked us in'. Super clean.

A perfect place to stay! You feel like home in there ;-) Everything is new in there and you have pool for swimming.

Apartment 2A was the biggest reason our trip to Manila was so successful. The staff there spent a lot of time helping us plan our travel and choices of what to do in the city, even though we arrived quite late. One of the owners even traveled with us during the first day to show us around free of charge (we made sure he didn't pay for anything though)! The taxi drivers probably will not know this place by name, so make sure you have some directions, street names, etc. The facility was very nice.

If you want : Being in a flat really clean, opportunity of swimmingpool, close to airport and to a big mall, not far from the see. Go there. You will be able to use it as a simple base for trips around and in Manila with taxi or bus. Don't expect typical place it can be Hong-Kong or Paris. A bit far from Center of Manila

Location is magnifique! Very safe area compare to area called Malate where other hostels are. Quiet and good location. Walk to shopping, eating, entertainment bars with live singers. Long walk or short ride to main train station lines. Airport is very near. Nice interiors and clean. Staff is helpful. I left my wallet in a taxi. The building security had a record of the plate number of the car that dropped me off. The hostel staff helped me locate the address of the taxi owner.

Went back to the Philippines for a vacation and wanted to stay in a place where it's affordable, clean and comfortable. Apt 2A is the best choice! Just a few walks away from one of the biggest malls in Asia. Very close to the ocean. Also near to trains & all other public transports. Close to the Airport and Tourist spots. The staff were very helpful, giving points on good places to go. Neighbourhood is peaceful. Very safe area. Has a lagoon pool, Free gym, free wifi and first class amenities :)

Hostel with clean sheets and fantastic facilities - Swimming Pool and Gym! Quiet and peaceful surroundings but never far from the bustling city. Located in Pasay City and convenient walking distance to LRT, MRT and Mall of Asia.

My First time to Philippines and I'm very happy that I took the chance to stay in this Hostel despite there being no reviews at the time. Facilities were as new and there is a secure lockable storage area for each guest. The Gym and Pool facilities are very good. I was able to walk to SM Mall of Asia, Baclaran Chuch, MRT, LRT but if you prefer metered taxi is about 60php. The 4 Friends who own and run this facility are lovely and a great help.
