    Fantastic guest house in a busy Dumaguete. I enjoyed my stay, 12 nights in total. Nikko and his family and great hosts. You can walk to the main boulevard in 10min or take a tricycle for 50php (don’t pay more). Overall, I can highly recommend it!

We love to share our space in our home. A relaxed and homey vibe. The place is ideal for travelers and guests who want to explore and enjoy the beauty of Negros providing a comfy stay. Guests deserve a cozy and homey stay after long travels. That's why the place is designed consciously to make the vacation worth it. My apartment is situated between two highway streets, easy city access by all kinds of transportation. Walking distance to Silliman University and Rizal Boulevard.
