Thank you Tambayan Capsure Hotel, I stayed there for 9 days and 8 nights. I really appreciate the staff especially the one in the front desk, he is very accomodating. I stayed in a private room with shared CR, the room itself is small but clean, and bathroom although it is shared, it is contantly cleansed. There was once where they did decontamination of the entire building. The hotel is situated near establishments. Approximately 800km walk to St. Lukes and about 1km to US Embassy. Across the hotel is the Robinson's Plaza Manila, beside the hotel is a ministop and Mcdo. I like my stay there. I will recommend it to others who are looking for cheap place to stay.

The staff are very accomodating and immediately attend my needs. It is a cost effective transient for travellers. I never expect they have hot and cold shower which I really love. The place is cozy and it seems like I am at home. They also ensure comfort rooms are clean. So, I recommened this place for travellers who will be staying for a week in Manila. Moreover, it's across the Robinson Mall, were travellers can buy there needs.

I am truly amazed to have stayed in such a great place for 20 days. The hospitality and staff service is superb and commendable, esp MJ and Lloyd. The security personnel are also so mindful of each and every person that comes in and out and they interact with the guests well too. The hostel’s cleanliness is well maintained and not to mention, its just few steps from the gastrobar where delish foods and affordable booze are offered. I am amazed too on how this hostel is accessible to almost everything-Robinson’s, Public Transpo systems, US embassy, SLEC, delicious restaurant, go-to massage spas, etc. i have met so many friends here and i’d love to check in again whenever im in Manila.

It's s been almost a month staying here in tambayan. Staff are friendly&accomodating,especially ms. MILES,MS.Mj&Sir Lloyd.Bed in capsule type is wide.Location is accessible to mall and etc.Place is recommendable for seafarers who are looking for shortstays.Other guests are doing littering and dont even follow simple instructions about cleanliness that's why other guest might think that the place is dirty or they will even says that staff are not doing their job.For me we traveller should also contribute an effort in terms of cleanliness to the place where we live in temporarily as travellers.

Thank you Tambayan Capsule Hostel for accommodating me again. The cleanliness of the hostel are well maintained despite of the crisis and skeletal work force of their staff. The Guard "Mr.Tayco" is very accommodating. For many times I checked in, in Tambayan, this was my first time to experience water interruption, but it's okay,this is uncontrollable especially now that two typhoons just hit the country. The management well managed it Thank you Ma'am Miles, Ma'am Mj, Sir Lloyd and Sir Richmond for accommodating us.

The room and restroom were dirty. They were obnoxious too! THE WATER SUPPLY WAS CUT OFF!!! IMAGINE? We need to wait until dawn for the water supply to come back. We do understand the old furnitures and all but we cant stand the cutting off of the water supply! And when we complained, I failed to see even a slight remorse or maybe an apologetic feels from the staff’ faces! 😡
