I cannot say enough about the staff at this location. Jenny was amazing, my husband ended up in rhe hospital. She had a staff memeber drive her and i there and she stayed with me the entire time. The room is basic but has all the necessitys (fridge,a/c, shower). Room was clean and housekeeping cleaned daily if requested.
This is a pension/backpacker hotel/hostel style accomodation, and as such my expectations were low. When we arrived the check in process was painless, the staff friendly and helpful and the room had clean sheets and AC that worked, which is the best you could possibly hope for! Having your own private bathroom in a hotel like this is a luxury as well. There is a dive tour business with the same name that appears to be attached to this hotel, and the gear storage in the room seemed purpose built for storing dive gear, but even without booking dive tours the room was a nice place to return to at the end of a long day. Overall we enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to book again!
This is a one star hotel. Not a 3 star. Electricity went out for hours and they laughed when I asked when it’d go back on. The bathroom flooded into the main room. Not worth the money we paid

Handy location for boat trips.
Only a one night stay for us. Reasonably quiet & handy if going on boat trips. Nothing outstanding but not terrible however “balcony” unusable due to design. Breakfast fine (standard). Wifi not great.

Arrived to Coron later in the evening and it was dark so was not sure what to expect. Checked into Sanho and was a little underwhlemed. Cleaned the room a little and made it our own and ended up really liking it in the end. I am not much of a backpaker (I prefer 5 star boutique hotels) but came to realize that this is not easy to find in the Philippines as an overall. The breakfast at the Sanho was great. Staff was friendly, they cleaned your room everyday and changed the towels which was nice ! Monster bar is a night time hot spot and the location was good as you were a little further from the heart of town but still very close. I would definitely stay here again.

Okay stay
Air conditioner was not working. Hot water was not available all the time. Great location. Magnificent views. This hotel has potential if conditions are improved. Friendly staff.
I enjoyed my stay here, it is as close as you can get to where the tour boats leave from. Not much to choose from in the immediate area but it satisfied all my needs. Free breakfast was convenient. Good aircon. Secure.

Good stay for the price
It is a pension house so I wasn’t expecting much. This place is clean, has great a/c. And hot water for showering. That is all i expected. It is also a short walk from all the boat tours in the morning. The only negatives are the mattresses are a bit stiff and the wifi doesn’t work a lot of the time. But again, based on the price and expectations I had it was a great stay.

Property is ok but the amenities is poor and so is the WIFI.
The room was overbooked and we were walked over to another hotel for the first night with an inferior room to the one we booked. The WiFi is unusable, unless you walk upstairs to the restaurant. Loved the staff!
The room was super nice, and the AC worked really well. I Was pleasantly surprised by the location's proximity to the public market, one of Coron town's main attractions. The staff was nice, but they will only take cash at the hotel for additional purchases, including scuba diving, which was a little annoying (they wouldn't take paypal). Also the bathroom had a little bit of a musty smell and the paint on the ceiling was chipping, but they had hot water and everything was nice and the included breakfast was amazing, so I really have no complaints.
We were at the ground floor so it was noisy. The place is not so far fr town center so it is accessible but near the public market where one can buy anything including fruits and seafoods. The hotel has its restaurants but you hav to place your order hours or a day before including the free breakfast. The service staff are courteous and accommodating.
Very good stay for Philippine hotel and very close to all the boat tours.Very good deal for the price

Excellent hotel and location
The hotel was located across the pier for the island tour boats and close enough to the town main venues so you can just walk anywhere. Great location. Rooms are cleaned daily and new towels are provided everyday of your stay. Free breakfast is heavy enough so you dont go hungry.
Cons :
No elevator just stairs
The room we stayed in had no place to hang clothes or your towel while taking a shower, there was a veranda which would have been a good place to put a clothes rack for your wet clothes (from snorkeling all day)
Overall id stay here again
The hotel is old and basic but was clean at least. Others have said it’s cheap so you get what you pay for, however we’ve stayed in even cheaper hotels that were brand new and we had excellent hospitality from staff. The air con worked but was an old system and couldn’t regulate the temperature. The room also had a ceiling fan which was better for nighttime to keep cool without freezing and also much quieter. The breakfast was included and wasn’t bad though. The shower kept spluttering and didn’t always work. Just some comments to keep in mind but overall the room was fine to sleep and shower for a basic price. The main issue we had was with the staff. They almost didn’t give us back the deposit of 500 peso by demanding to see a receipt when they hadn’t given us one (I even asked for one and they said no ma’am it’s ok). It was also the same girl who originally took the deposit from us! Staff generally unhelpful, short and acted like you were inconveniencing them. For example they sold water at the front reception from a fridge. Many times we would stand there, water in hand, waiting for them to finish their gossip before taking our money. They knew we were there waiting and just made us wait before eventually holding out their hand for the money without looking at you.
If we could rate this hotel lower then we would. The AC blew out only hot air, the shower head was strapped on with a plaster so the water went everywhere, the tap was broken... and that was the best part!
We were absolutely disgusted by the service we were given at this hotel. Upon check in we were asked to give a 500peso deposit, we gave them 1000pesos and they gave us 500 change. My partner remembered giving the lady the money and then watching her struggle with the lock of the money box. I even wrote on our check in slip that we gave 500 pesos when we handed it over, as we had no receipt off them (very unprofessional. Since that 1000 was all the money we had left we used the remaining 500 to get a coffee before heading to find a cash machine.
When we returned that evening a lady in reception asked us to pay the deposit, to which we confusingly told her we already did. The following morning as we checked out the two ladies at reception were talking under their breath and giving us dirty looks (again very unprofessional) and when my partner asked if there was an issue they proceeded to tell us that we didn’t give the 500 deposit. The lady who was accusing us was the SAME lady who originally took the money from us. Shocking!
We’ve travelled around Asia for 3 months and no where has treated us as they did here. We’re guessing it’s some sort of scam in order to keep the 500 pesos for themselves. However we were not falling for
