The Flying Fish Hostel

説好聽點是工業風……其實吧，就是老舊房子簡單改造，房間比較小，床墊特別軟，床單感覺不太乾淨，屋內一股黴味，樓上的人走路或者挪動物品在地板上會很吵。。除了離機場不會遠之外，沒啥特別可取之處。不過價格擺在那裡。

I stayed here 5 nights in mid-November as a solo female traveler, and truly loved the property - I do love a good concrete structure though! It keeps places cool and clean. Staff were abundant and super helpful. There are a few maps and guides in the lobby that give you ideas of what to do & see in and around Dumaguete. They were able to organize a trike for me to get to Dauin, about 45 minutes away (500 PHP). Live music on Friday nights. You can walk about 30 minutes to the center of town or take a shared trike for 10-15 pesitos. I took a Zoom interview at 5am on a Wednesday morning that didn’t crack, so I’d say internet is quite strong. Lots of tables & chairs to relax and chill, lots of cute lighting. The ROOMS/BED: MASSIVE! You could keep ALL your luggage at the foot of your bed if you want to, there’s so much extra space. I also appreciate the individual light, outlet, and bars to hang clothing/towels from. The rooms all have AC that can be adjusted as well. I liked how the bathrooms and showers are outside & well-ventilated, and soap is available. The restaurant Palmitas had a wide variety of food and dishes and open from morning to night, offering even snacks and coffee all day. While it may cost a bit more than other restaurants in the area, it’s great for convenience, has a great ambiance and an extensive menu.

It's a chic hostel that's located within a few minutes tricycle ride from port and boulevard. Not as centrally located as other places across the boulevard but close to places for food and drinks. Stayed in a shared room. Place kept clean, bed spacious and has extra room for all your other stuff. Has comfortable common areas where you can rest / hang-out and even take Instagrammable photos. Other extras they provide is free water from a dispenser and a place for hanging your wet clothes Only downside is there was temporarily no water during my stay there.

The deluxe private rooms are a great deal! Comfy beds, clean sheets, and aircon for those who need a refresh from the hot humid environment. Staff, especially Maria at the front desk is so friendly, and management accommodating to your travel needs. Really convenient location as well with the best dining options around within walking distance, or an easy tricycle ride away.
