I'm sorry but I can't recommend this place. On the plus side they seem kind and have good intentions. I can feel how the staff wants the guest to feel as good as possible and for this, in grateful. But good intentions are not enough as almost everything is broken or inadequate. Bathroom cleaned once per week. Sheets changed once per week. You have hot water but it's either cold or very hot. The Internet is a joke most of the time and I spend about 600 PHP using my phone as a hotspot instead. Then you have the location. Sure, it's nice and romantic until you get hungry or you need something and then you realize how far away you are. And since jeepney are not always available or viable, you'll have to take a taxi. So if you go downtown and back, you'll pay 10 extra USD just on transportation. The food is not good. First evening I ordered a burger. I think it was microwaved. This was at the same price as a fresh burger in the mall. The food is not that bad but it's at least twice more expensive than it should be. And this can be told about everything. All are sold twice price and since you're far away from a store, you'll have to buy, eventually. For me, it was not worth it and my stay there was borderline depressing. It would have been cheaper to pay three times more and rent a nice place than to stay there. And while I appreciate the willingness to accommodate my requests, at the end of the day, almost everything is broken, most are mismanaged and you need a lot of patience. So unless you are really trying to save money, pay more and find something better. Even for the service level in the Philippines which is generally very bad, this place is disappointing. On the plus side, the beds are comfortable and interesting, made out of bamboo. The air con works (well, at least in my room). There are no strange smells and I haven't found any bugs. When the internet works, it is decent. You get free water and you can do laundry (although how the same load is one day 2 kg and another 3, I don't know). It's also quite secure with a gate and lockers, although being your own lock. The towels were clean and the sheets too, minus a huge burn hole in one of them. So there are many pluses but again, for me it's more hassle than it is worth. And unless you're really spartan and nothing like this bothers you or you have a lot of time to spend going back and fourth in jeepneys (which tend to get very overcrowded), you'll feel the same.
