Guest Reviews
- Redentor (1/5): - My booking has been cancelled by property
- Apuada (8/5): Honest Stay Review (Convenient Location but Has Some Issues) - We purposely booked here to enjoy a different side of the area and to stay closer to the bus terminal, which was very convenient. The owner was friendly and welcoming, even offered free karaoke. The heater worked well, the area looked decent, and there are nearby shops which made things easier. Despite the issues, I’d still consider staying here again for the convenience and the kind owner. We booked a couple room but received separate beds instead of one large bed. The WiFi wasn’t very reliable, the rug looked dirty, and the table had a cracked part that felt unsafe. I hope they can replace it or at least cover the damaged part for safety. We also had to wait before getting our reserved room instead of checking in right away. The place is also quite far from Sabang Beach, so keep that in mind if that’s your main destination.

- Marivic (7/5): Its okay - The room is nice. Quiet place at night There is no tv the beach is a little too far. You need to ride a trike to go to the beach.
- Andrei Mori (8/5): -
- Kier Louie (10/5): - Water Heater Slow water system but its ok
- Rowel (9/5): The entire stay is pleasant and will go back to this place again. Higky recommended - The property is quite cheap compared to other hotels nearby so it is pretty good if you are on a budget. You can also use the kitchen utensils for free and there is enough water specially HIT WATER. The CR is quite hard to flush when you poop but still works. I hope they check it.

- Uziel (10/5): Great Value Accommodation in Baler - Spacious Room with Private Parking. Convenient Location - Near Bus Station and Market.
This place is a perfect choice for those who enjoy a leisurely stroll to the beach and the refreshing ocean breeze. The toilet flush might be weak. We recommend bringing toiletries or contacting the host for recommendations in case a stronger flush is important for you.

- Marc (6/5): Pleasant -
- Olumide (7/5): Its cheap, and ok for the night. - The location is not far from the terminal and its good for one night stay The AC was loud. We decided to stay extra days and the staff refused to clean the room, stating a 3 days cleaning policy. On the third day, we got new towels

- Ben (9/5): felt like home immediately!😍 - beautiful big rooms, really friendly helpful owners, great facilities (outdoor kitchen to use), nice quiet location:) its a 15 minute walk to the beach, but it’s actually nice to be back from the action a bit and chill out. nothing bad to say really
- Jermaine (10/5): The worthy cutie place (home away from home) in Baler - Ate, the owner, was so accommodating. As we arrived on a weekday and there was a free room when we arrived, she let us do early checkin for free - that was such a big help specially we came from a long travel. Also you could cook and even borrow their blender so you could make a smoothie. Lastly, the place is located strategically where you could walk to the market, to the baywalk and to the hanging bridge 😍🥰 The insulation of the aircon - the aircon is not so cold but there is an electric fan that you could use.
- Arjun (10/5): Exceptional - Had a great stay at the Brown Epitome Lodge for 2 nights. The rooms are clean and with a very nice fresh scent when entering so you feel comfortable directly. The staff was very friendly and accommodating and even let us use a blender so we could make our own smoothie and let's us leave our bags for a few hours after checkout so we could go around. Only downside was that the aircon wasn't so cold but it was working fine.
- B (2/5): Misrepresentation. Not truthful deal. - I booked this lodge because it was relative new based from their photos and had a great price even though the location was 2.3 km away from the beach.
But when i arrived in the lodge, they told us to be relocated to Moreno's Logde and Resto.
Moreno's is very old. The beds were hard as well as the pillows. There was no food available though it said "restaurant".
Based from my travel experiences, the value of Moreno's is LOWER than the deal price that I payed to Brown Epitome Lodge for two nights.
If only I knew that this would happen, I am very much willing to pay for a higher price as long as it is a truthful deal.
You have to stop this modus of misrepresentation of your services to a frequent traveller like us.
- john (4/5): Disappointed - We got to the hotel early. And then they told us they’re fully booked. They had to transfer us to a diffrent hotel which really sucks. The water supply is not good. The bathroom smellls garbage. Staff we’re not friendly. I’m really dissatisfied. I was really looking forward for this hotel.
- Verified traveler (10/5): A great home at Baler - Very accomodating owner and it feels like were home.
- David (10/5): Helpful and friendly - During our stay the owner was very friendly and helpful to all our needs and would recommend this place too all
