After a few people tested positive for COVID on our scuba boat, the authorities required us to stay at this hotel to be tested the next day. The assigned me a room with no windows or sunlight. There were cockroaches throughout the room. If you don’t have a choice, stay here or if you like cockroaches stay here, otherwise don’t stay here!

It's a pitty this hotel has plenty of potential, rooms are big, sea view, bed is comfortable and linen good quality but if you need customer service.... Forget it.. It doesnt exist here, they keep forgetting things, take ages to attend your request. In breakfast time, staff was missing. You have to ring the bell and wait... Maybe you are lucky and someone shows up..

We spent three days in Puerto Princesa as we were interested to see the Underground River before going to El Nido for more fun. The Sunlight Hotel is very well located right in the middle of the town, close to the Beachwalk park, the restaurants and shops, the travel agencies. The hotel is clean and it has a great service, the reception and the driver were really helpful. Breakfast was good and the room (deluxe with sea view) was outstanding. As I saw the rooms with the interior balcony are not that great. Anyway, in my experience it was a great hotel and would return for sure.

We were left at the airport after organising a transfer with the hotel. So things didn't start out well. When we arrived at the hotel and after asking the question, why, we received the obligatory smile with no explanation. The inner rooms are very dark and bedside lights are inadequate to read by. Don't know what the staff were doing the first night in the corridor but they were very noisy most of the night. The bed mattresses are rock hard. The breakfast over the weekend was good but week days no so. You are located in the middle of everything, so that is a plus.

I booked this room before I read the reviews. Could not warn enough to stay away! There is a strong odour in the whole hotel that smells like sewage! It comes through the vents in your room and you breathe it in! Me and my partner requested for a room change and soon to find out all rooms smell like it and the just masked our new room with air freshener that soon wore off. It shows you on the site that your room will have a balcony but it’s an inside balcony shared with all the other rooms - no privacy. The staff were friendly but acted like they didn’t know there was a sewer smelling problem! Its not good for your health to be breathing it in. Showers are also rusty. Wifi did not work whilst we were there.

Customer service was great but our bathroom had mold everywhere. Along the bathtub, near the ceiling vents, the carpet felt wet and mildewy. Wall paper in the hall was black looking and peeling. Bathrooms were marble/stone looking and look nice in pictures but upkeep needs to be improved. Mattress felt like we were sleeping on the floor, very very firm
