Alona Gecko Inn

Очень понравился отель. В номере есть все необходимое. Хороший WI-FI. Все продумано до мелочей. Есть горячая вода. Недалеко от пляжа. Рядом много магазинов. Есть стиральная машина, которой могут пользоваться гости

I first stayed here in April 2024. I revisited in July 2025 after trying a number of other hotels and air bnbs in the area. Over the past year, it seems my previous concerns have been addressed and the manager cares are customer feedback. I normally travel solo as a remote worker. This place is a top pick for people similar to me. Blazing fast internet tested at 288 down 37 up. A generator for when power goes out. Cleaning available in the afternoon in you work nights, a table and chairs inside the room. The room is pretty quiet by Filipino standards as the hotel sits off the road a bit. The room itself is spacious. New tvs have cable channels and all the apps you could want. Good heater in the shower and good water pressure. The bed is foam, which isn’t my preference, but the queen size has plenty of room. The air con works great, and there is also a ceiling fan. The staff are kind and engaging. Shout out to Jade for a number of positive interactions I’ve had with her during my stay.

The owner is passive-agressive and cannot take feedback or complaints. He will blame you or someone or anything but himself. He does not care about your experience! Backstory: there was a power outage in the island and their generator was broken. I found out through a local friend that this was an announced power outage a week or days prior, but they did not inform the guests, nor made sure their generator is working. My room was very hot and it was impossible to rest or get some sleep. I went to the reception to get some help and updates, and the staff rang the owner and asked me to talk to him. The owner told me he can't help me, can't do anything and DROPPED the phone call while I was talking to him. Yes, mid-conversation. You see, my problem here is the owner and how he dealt with my concern. Think twice before booking this place!
