- Maria Paz (10/5): - The location and the staff. Very considerate to allow us for an early check in Yung Daan papunta sa lugar. Masyado din po kasing malaki yung maleta ko.

- simonvallas (9/5): Great place to stay, amazingly friendly staff. Happy to come back! - The staff at this hotel is incredibly friendly and kind. :)
The room was spacious and bed comfortable, AC working well, hot water in shower Wifi was a bit weak - it kept kicking me out because of poor signal
The location itself is good - quiet street, but the road to the hotel may seem a bit scary at night
- Michael (5/5): Close to Beach but that’s about it - Staff were very friendly Not a great room in not a great place
- Saad (8/5): -
- jasmin (8/5): It’s great. - The place is okey The shower head. It’s too strong that makes the washroom flooded

- kenneth ammitzbøll (1/5): Big surprise nothing fit the photo we order from and no elevatore. - Staff very nice Very surprise nothing fit the photo in the booking, the street very unsafe and we have the move to a new hotel. No elevator and with 2 small kids and 60kg+bagage it is total stupid to walk op on 3 floor 🤮

- Tito (8/5): -

- arnaud (8/5): -
- Marielle Nicole (8/5): Staffs are very accommodating and pleasant. Place is good and basic needs are provided. Location is very accessible. - Locaiton is very accessible to d’mall which is a plus. Food is also great and worth it. None

- Connie (8/5): -
- Giuliana (8/5): - Carino, buona posizione. Lontano dal rumore ma vicinissimo alla zona dei ristoranti, spiagge e supermercati
- Guimalan (10/5): GREAT!! - SUPER HOMEY AND WILL STAY HERE AGAIN. Staff are accommodating and the place is not too crowded like other hotels. It feels like a resthouse. Airconditioning is good. Wifi is good too. Able to work. Really worth your money especially if youre on a budget. None.

- Diana (8/5): Very good -
- Edfelyn (9/5): Superb - The place is super affordable, spotless, and the staff are the friendliest you’ll ever meet. It’s just a short walk away from the beach.
- John (10/5): My Bora Stay 2025 - The Staff are really exceptional. They are very courteous, and responsive. They even accommodated my request for an early check-in at 10am. Housekeeping staff are awesome. I love my stay with them. Just a suggestion, maybe they should place a mini fridge as well to the rooms in the ground floor, that's it.
- Jenni (5/5): Staff were very accommodating - Accommodating Staff Location - the road going to the Inn was not good, muddy, not entirely concreted. -a lot of puddles - the road corner going to the place was a garbage station - very stinky

Ask for Jonathan tour guide. 2nd floor Great sitting and reading space. The room was super clean. Breakfast should have more variety.
- Alan (10/5): Exceptional - Great staff, location and price! Leaving!
- Mehmet (9/5): Superb -
- Ryan (9/5): Superb - very central location and the staff are very accommodating and friendly.
- Safa (9/5): Superb - The hotel is just a minute walking distance from the beach and nightlife. Despite it is busy, the hotel is extremely comfortable and there comes definitely no noise from the outside world.
The staff is extremely helpful. They let me check-out more than 4h later than the supposed check-out time, but I had to compensate for it financially ofcourse but it was at a very affordable rate.
Btw, the bed and pillows are extremely comfortable. Nothing really. Maybe that the shower head could be cleaned more intense. But despite of that, I had a very great stay!
Just don't expect a view from your room.
- Kevin (8/5): Very good -
- Ariel (7/5): Good - Actually its not so far from the beach The way going from hotel to beach
- Jessica (8/5): Great stay! - Great sized rooms, good location - easy to walk to bars and restaurants. Staff were friendly and helpful.
- Audrius (9/5): Superb -
- Greg17051065 (5/5): Budget Hotel/Resort (no fridge) - Location No fridge, no space.
It's a budget hotel
Safety deposit box, not even bolted to wall, so pointless
- Anastasiya (9/5): Would and probably will stay here again soon - The staff was helpful, but also wasn't all up in my business, which is just ideal. They let me check in way earlier, as I had already stayed in Boracay prior to my stay at Isla Gecko and was just changing hotels at that stage. During check-out, which I had to do very early, the guard was extremely helpful - it was raining quite hard that night, and not only did he lent me an umbrella on my way to the main road, he also went with me and carried my big luggage. I killed 2 roaches during my 3 weeks there, but nothing that I didn't expect in such climate, the guard also let me use a pesticide spray a couple of times to avoid this issue.
- Jo-ann (7/5): Reasonably priced, good location - Cheap coffee, good location but down a back alley. When you get a tricycle the place is located near the wetlands park Noisy a/c and noisy when it rained. We were first put in a downstairs room with mould which was where breakfast was served, we asked to be moved which was kindly facilitated to a better room
- Rachel (10/5): Great Experience - The place was near the white beach, very accessible. Clean room, and friendly staff. 👌👌 None. Our experience during the new year was great.
- Sarunas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kathleen (6/5): Not too bad - Staff were brilliant and they made sure that rooms are clean. When it rain you can hear the water drop into the tin roof and also the water coming from the air conditioned that made us awake.
- Agne (6/5): Pleasant - Location No breakfast despite you said zo for Genius
- Anne (9/5): If you’re looking for a peaceful place to stay, choose Isla Gecko. - The place is far from loud and noisy beach front. We had restful nights through out our stay. The staffs are accomodating and helpful. N/A
- Jerwin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Seneres (8/5): Very good -
- Trizia (8/5): Very good -
- Ashley (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jhoana (9/5): good value for money -
- Emily (9/5): Overall great stay and perfect for backpackers trying to stay somewhere cheap. - The property was in a great location considering its price. The rooms have everything you need. Cold water at the front desk and the staff was very nice. The bathrooms were very small and the air conditioning didn’t have a remote so it’s ether superrr cold or warm.
