I chanced on Balaibinda through a friend’s recommendation and was pleasantly surprised at this small gem of a B and B. Clean, cute with ample amenities for any traveller passing Coron. It’s also in the middle of town so you’re a walk away from most night spots. I’ll be back!

I and my family stayed here fo our first trip in coron. The location is close to the town proper and nearby tourist spots. in case you need to buy something, just go out the gate and tadah instant stores waiting for you. Staffs are friendly and accomodating. Till next time balaibinda...
My boyfriend and I stayed for 2 nights 3 days. Dina at the front desk was very nice. We had a room facing the street. It was the normal street noises but not too bothersome. Place is clean. There was AC, a fan and hot water. Bed and pillow was comfy. Liked that they had a blanket, most places it’s just a sheet. You pick what you want for breakfast the day before. The WiFi could be stronger but I realize that is most of Coron. We didn’t need a converter for our US plugs but not every socket worked. We took a tour (I recommend the ultimate tour (8 different places) we had an awesome time even with the on and off rain). It made our trip special. All in all a good stay, we would come back here.
Since we are not expecting 5 star hotel comfort and treatment, this is a good place to stay at a budget - good location (you can walk to the bank, the church and the restaurants) and good air conditioner. They need to improve on their breakfast meal - not appetising at all.
im giving this place a thumbs up for - location, accommodation, approachable and accommodating staff (Dinah and Rischel and the rest).
With its reasonable price, its value for money.
the whole place is clean, airy because of the pocket garden on the center
The van service and the tour coordinated by the hotel (even cheaper than when we directly coordinated with the tour/travel office) were all on time.
the only aspect that needs a little area for improvement is the choices of food for breakfast because if you are staying for 4 days, you begin to look for other menu, (of course because its the free breakfast) or you can eat at Ate Wengs infront of the lodge. Even a lot of foreigners eat there and its full pack at night because of the big serving/affordable price.
Over all, our coron tour was memorable and hassle free because after a long day, we can rest at the lodge and we can buy all our other needs within the vicinity.
will definitely recommend this lodge to friends and relatives
This is a boutique hotel in the heart of the city. The customer service is great and its within walking distance to many restaurants and shops. The Lodge itself is picturesque with a pleasant feel and well maintained. The rooms are small but cozy and comfortable. The cool think about this Lodge is that you order your breakfast, which is included, the night before, tell them the time you want it and the next morning there it is. This is a great concept. Another cool concept is as you leave the Lodge you leave the room key on the reception counter and when you return for the night its there waiting for you so there is no need to carry the key around with you. Yes this is safe because the staff knows the guests and controls the room keys. I would recommend this hotel.
