Mam Olson Pensionne House

A lovely 1 night stay in this clean and comfortable place. Welcoming staff on arrival. Delicious basic breakfast. Basic amenities but everything we needed for 1 night

Gorgeous decorated common area, lovely staff, cute cats. Rooms were puny, bathrooms very small, air con was good, located in a good/quiet location

Sadly I booked to stay here and was told upon arrival that my room was double booked and had to find somewhere else to stay after 5pm. Now flash forward a month in chasing up go get my money back for the room I was not given. This place is contacting PayPal and hotel.com and saying that I did receive it when I have proof that I didn’t. Would not recommend staying here. They haven’t even cancelled the booking when they said they would.

It's a budget hotel but nice staff as all good but I could smell someone smoking

Comfortable bed, free coffee, great location. On arrival reception area smelt of cat urine also, throughout stay very low water pressure. Walls are paperthin meaning you can hear other quests in their rooms. The communal area was very noisy most evening and early morings. You will need earplugs as overnight there are dogs barking.AC works but very VERY noisy, we had to turn it off at night as you could hear it through ear plugs.We booked a week here and were asked to move rooms after 5 nights for some unexplained reason. We had a ground floor room initially and could hear guests above dragging furniture anout at all hours. Would not recommend staying unless no where else is free and you have decent ear plus/defenders to ensure sleep. Not a great experience for us.

So at first, I was a little disappointed, as my room didn’t have hot water, but after a while this place started to grow on me. I mean it is three stars not five, but it is still a solid stay when all the rooms in El NIDO are booked. The staff was particularly helpful and friendly I also thought that the courtyard, with an onsite snack shop was particularly charming.if I returned to El NIDO, I can’t say as this would be my fist choice, but at the same time, I could do much worse.

Thank you for the Aate at the front desk she was amazing

Happy welcoming staff

Nice and cozy place with friendly staff. However the electricity was out during our whole stay so it got extremely warm in the room.

If you enjoy smelling the smell of human waste stay here. You walk in on an unsafe boardwalk of rotten timbers over an open sewer. You cant get away from this smell. Add to that the room smelled of mould. More attention to cleaning would help. Staff were friendly. I am sure many places in el nido much worse than this though.

Please prepare yourself with a lot of bug spray. Many spiders and bugs & ants in the room. No kids should stay in such a place.

Do not stay here, way to the hotel is a canal which smells & lots of mosquitoes. No hot shower & it smells.

Pros: The location is excellent. Kind and accommodating staff. Clean basic room. Cons: Very small bathroom

You get what you paid for. Very basic accommodation. A practical choice since you’ll be touring all day. If you only need a place to leave your things and sleep for the night and save up, this is the place for you. The AC is very good. Rare you see a pension house that will give you chills if you full-blast the AC. I will rate that 5/5. A minor setback on the water supply when we came in but nothing that wasn’t remedied right away. I also like it that they offer free coffee (although instant ones) but nevertheless, it’s free. I like it that they put their hot-water dispenser where it is accessible to everyone. For those cup-noodles breakfast that you plan to have when you come over, go for it. The staffs were nice and easy to talk to and will give you a much easier time to book your tours with them. No hassle at all. The place is clean with a home-style feel. Just really be mindful on the way in as the place comes in an old foot bridge made of wood with lots of missing parts with the drainage below it. My daughter even stepped on one of those missing parts luckily she wasn’t hurt that bad. When I go back to El Nido, I will personally choose this again for it’s affordability and proximity to the rest of your needs in the area.

The only downside is the way going to the pension house because it is not cemented. It can be scary the first time walking on the way there. But the room is clean and overall it was a good value for the money. Unlimited free coffee is an added nice touch.

Anything you need you need just asked the front desk Water is too slow take time to fill a small bucket And please if there is a chance please change the kettle. But very happy and satisfied

I love the staff here , when I ask if I can stay 1 more hour because we are waiting for the service they allowed us ,staff is very friendly . And I add 1 more guest in our room but they didn't charge us as long as we will use the same bed. Their bed can accomodate at least 3 people and still spacious . A bit dissapointed about our room because it has ants on the window sides. And no generator if its brownout , overall I still like the place you have free unlimited coffee on the veranda . Rate 4/5 😊

The pensionne house is not bad at all. You get what you paid for. Its good enough that its air-conditioned. It has free wifi. The cleanliness is not so nice. It smells a bit. The pillowcases has a smell also. We covered it with our extra clothes. But if youre on a tight budget. This is a good deal.

It was good

Quick and easy check in, clean rooms and surroundings, friendly and accommodating stuff, quiet and peaceful, amenities good, the tea room is a bonus, close to the beach and plenty places to eat.
