We checked out early. Very shady. Our view was on going construction, theres sea wall, trash. I can keep going but very tired to even type all negative stuff. Overall it was a mess.

Good Day Ms. Mary Ann. We apologize for your inconvinience. As we have discussed when you arrived, we offered that you had an option to cancel your reservation with us because of the seawall construction and all the other reasons as you said. In fact we approved your request to decrease the number of stay to 2 nights instead of 4 nights. More that your frustrations, we as the owners and operator of the Inn have been tremendously disappointed with this project because we have already lost so much business. But this is a national project to protect us and all the people along Sabang beach from the sea rage specially during typhoon. We fully understand your disappointment that is why when your husband shouted at my husband disrespectfully and talked to us very very rudely, we did not take it badly. We were ready for your cancellation and also willing to find you a better accommodation, but you opted to stay for 2 nights so we are thankful. We are still trying to get back on our feet from a 2 year lockdown. We wish to see the seawall done to be able to keep our business alive. We apologize for all inconveniences.

A last minute get-away!
Weather was perfect, the staff was friendly and the Indian-Filipino restaurant was amazing across the Old Parola Seaside Cottages which was owned by the same people. They have limited parking space so make sure you call ahead and double check. Unfortunately, they do not have hot showers but the weather was so perfect anyway. We also have our fur baby with us and the place is very pet friendly. Wish there is more space to lounge. There's no TV so its really great way to relax and shut down all your electronics aside from photo taking. One thing we noticed that there are a lot of stray dogs so be careful if you have your furry friend make sure you keep an eye and keep them on leash.

The owners of the hotel are very accommodating and willing to assist in every requests that you have. They are willing to spend a little time talking and getting to know thier guests.
