Located in Puerto Princesa City, within 7.5 km of Honda Bay and 1.2 km of City Coliseum, Duck & Drift - a Sleeper Hostel - Just 1,7km from Airport provides accommodation with a terrace and free WiFi as well as free private parking for guests who drive. The property is around 3.2 km from Palawan Museum, 3.5 km from Skylight Convention Center and 3.6 km from Immaculate Conception Cathedral. The property is non-smoking and is situated 3.2 km from Mendoza Park. I had such a peaceful and comfortable stay at this hostel. It’s simple but has everything you need — and it’s literally walking distance from the airport, which was perfect for my late-night flight. The place is quiet and cozy, with a comfy bed, two pillows, free tea and coffee, and even a hammock upstairs where you can relax. There’s a small kitchen, free towel provided, and the overall atmosphere is really calm and restful. What made it extra special was the kind lady who runs the place. She genuinely cared and even helped me sort out my transportation for a late-night departure. I also really appreciated that she let me stay and rest in my bed after check-out time for free — such a thoughtful gesture. I had the best night’s sleep here. 10 hours of uninterrupted sleep for the first time since I started this trip. If you need a place to recover and recharge before your next destination, this is the perfect spot. Thank you again for everything!

Situated within 4.3 km of Maquinit Hot Spring and less than 1 km of Coron Public Market, Kaiz Hostel features rooms with air conditioning and a shared bathroom in Coron. Attractively situated in the Coron Town Proper district, this hostel is located 1.7 km from Mount Tapyas. The property is 400 metres from the city centre and 2.6 km from Dicanituan Beach. Everything was great. Despite being 12 people in the room, it was very quiet and we had enough space for everything. There are big lockers under the bed, free coffee and water, 2 showers+2 toilets which was enough. The family was very helpful, friendly and empathetic. They kept my bag in their house for the whole day while I was gone for a day trip, and helped with booking the tour. I'd highly recommend if you want to sleep during the night.
