Garpeza Backpackers

Great hostel with friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the location was very convenient. I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely come back! I would like to commend the staff namely Sadie, Jera, Jay, Jobert, Emman, Jen. They are very nice, accommodating, and attentive to my needs. The owners Matt and Danica are both lovely!

The rooms are great I stayed in a bunk bed that have proper lighting and clean bed sheets.. Have an AC and curtain that give you privacy.. They have a lounge area where you can work and have a convo with other guest. Plus you could ask the reception regarding what activities that you could do during your stay in Port Barton, San Vicente Palawan

Private room is comfortable with aircon, common area is nice & vibey, location is AMAZING (next to really good matcha/coffee, tacos & volleyball court) 🤠 We work online & the host was able to move the router closer to our room for even BETTER connection. They assisted us in everything we needed (also renting a motorbike) ✅ Thank you Garpeza,…
