Poor after office hours service.
We arrived late and was told that all the staff already went home and could not check in. The guard told us to come back the next day. Omg was already late and could not go anywhere else. So had to make a scene...

The rooms are not as expected. You can get better rooms for the same price in Cebu.

Good budget choice
Staying one night in Cebu we chose to stay here. Quet with no noise from the traffic, confortable beds, clean. GGood breakfast With several Choices included. Everything for a resonable price. We also tried their restaurant in the evening. It was good. May go back.

Simple B&B with good location
I stayed at Casa Escano 2 nights in September 2013. The first night, there was a mix-up with our booking, and we got a room with 1 queen and 1 single bed instead of 2 queens. The hotel offered to give us a small refund, which we were pleasantly surprised at, but declined as the room had no trouble fitting an extra bed for the 4 of us. Staff are friendly and helpful, from showing us how to make 'towel animals' while setting up the extra bed, to calling the restaurant we were intending to have dinner at to make sure that they were still open, and reminding us to keep our jewellery before heading out for the night - this is important as street kids seem quite dangerous! We experienced them trying to steal from us the following night that we forgot to keep our stuff in the hotel. The room interiors are spacious, and mattresses are clean and comfortable, although the beds are a tad old and squeaky. Food at the restaurant is excellent! We had buffet and ala carte breakfast there for the 2 mornings(included for our room), and also tried their lunch. The hotel is also very conveniently located, and is very close to the port and downtown tourist sites. Although not all taxi drivers know of it, they seem familiar with the address and with 'Vacation' nearby.

Do not stay here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This place sucks!!! We did not get the room we rented. They told us it was rented before we made our reservation. But they gladly took our money and lied to us. No internet for 4 days. All I got out of the staff was arguments. They said the interent worked. I had 2 laptops, 3 tablets and 2 phones that say they are liars. The only internet that worked was in the restaurant. This means you sit outside in the heat if you want internet and your room with the A/C you paid for sits empty. IF you value you sanity, and need a place to provide what you paid for. STAY SOMEWHERE ELSE!!! ANYWHERE ELSE!!!

Service and Quality of food awesome.
We picked this hotel for our first stay and visit to Cebu becasue of other reviews that we read about this hotel. There was only one bad review that I could find. All of the others all were great reviews. There are two things that I will say. The service was some of the best I have had in the world. The second was that the food was even better than the service. I will only stay at this B n B any time I an in Cebu. THe only small negative thing is neighborhood leaves a little to be desired. That is not fault of the hotel. We had the pleasure of meeting the owners and also the manager Tessa. She was great and was the reason for the great service that she expects from the staff. SHe treats the staff well and the in turn treat the guest very well. No task was to small or to big. We are already planning our next trip for there again late this year.

Horrified
I was scheduled to stay at this hotel and when i got there at 12:30am there were no lights and it was a locked gate. I could not go into the hotel because it was very dark and scary. After finding out by a gatekeeper that there is a curfew of 10pm that my agent didn't notify me. A curfew?? lol! im on vacation! why do i need a curfew. Anyways, we decided to re-locate to a more accommodating venue and I did not go back and never will. When i saw the room, it was nothing like the picture, it was very small and dirty and there were cockroaches. This room was not the one that I reserved, they bumped me to a smaller room without notification or a discount. I would never recommend this hotel or ever go back and I am planning to go back to cebu in January 2013.

Not again
Breakfast was good..that is the only thing positive to report..food at the restaurant way overpriced up to 3x the price of an outside airconditioned restaurant...service in the restaurant area bad , unfriendly. Location is not too far , plenty of taxis, but a bit scary to walk at night...I cut my trip short and moved on to Dumaguete which is overall a much nicer place. All in all I would stay away from Cebu City .

Casa Escano's med touch in the tropics
A cosy, quiet and centrally located B&B in a busy city. It offers good value food for those looking for something other than the local fare. Major sight-seeing areas, shops for necessities are within easy walking distance as is local transport as well.

Great little hotel
The hotel was excellent; clean, comfortable and very good value. The WiFi is free, unlike some larger hotels in Cebu. However, the restaurant is trying to be what a western tourist would expect, and is doing well, but still needs some improvement. They have avoided using "Cheez" in their dishes (real cheese is hard to find in many places in the Philippines), they use real cream (unsweetened) and the bread is not the usual over-sweet Filipino offering. They know how to cook a steak, unlike most Filipino restaurants which can't bring themselves to serve anything less than "overcooked". What they haven't yet grasped is the timing. Main courses are served before you finish eating the starter, and if you ask for them to serve your main course later, it is served cold. This is not unusual for Filipino establishments, but unwelcome in one that tries to be more like a western style restaurant. I suspect that the kitchen starts cooking both courses as soon as the order is taken, rather than waiting 20 minutes before cooking the main course. Other than that, I can't fault the place, and will be going back again next year to see how they are getting on!

街歩きには良いカモ
ホテルに多くを求めなければ十分満足出来ます。 私が使った部屋では、シャワーの水量は夜は物足りないけど昼間は強めに出ました。 トイレもシャワーも清潔感はありました。ドライヤーはついていません。 TVはNHKが見れます。エアコンは室外機一体型のタイプなのでうるさいです。 元々レストランなので食事は美味しいです。 ayalaにもタクシーで5分くらいなので買物にも便利です。 リゾート感覚はありませんが、ビーチやプールが目的でなく街歩きをしたい場合には最適なホテルです。ローカルとの距離は近いので何事も注意は必要です。コンビニにも制服の警備員が常駐してるくらいです。ただしホテルスタッフは親切でフレンドリーです。

コストパフォーマンスの良いホテル
周りにセブンイレブンやレストラン、屋台があり、7分くらい歩けばスーパーマーケットやデパートがあります。ジプニーも沢山走っているので、とても便利です。 ホテルは鶏がうるさいのとシャワーの水圧が弱いのが残念でした。朝食は10種類くらいから選べて、生ジュースかコーヒーか選べます。どれも美味しかったです。 スタッフは皆さん感じが良く、セーフティボックスがロックされたままだったのを伝えたら、すぐ直してくれました。毎日バスタオルで象や白鳥、女の子を作ってくれて楽しませてくれました。

落ち着く外観
セブ市内の観光と買い物のために1泊滞在。 フロントがない点は、過去にコメントがあったので、特段驚かず。 (ロビーというよりは)玄関で対応していただいたホテルスタッフの方は、大変親切でした。 客室は、きれいで普通です。 宿泊した部屋は、シングル。 玄関からは離れており、無料のWifiは 電子メールの送受信レベルが精一杯。 LINEでの電話は、途切れ途切れでNGです。 場所次第という感じです。 今回の総合評価は、 当日、夜中に台風2号の直撃を受け、セブ市内のホテル付近が停電。 あわせてホテルも全館が停電。 翌朝になっても復旧せず停電のまま。 エアコンはちょっとうるさいかったのですが、 停電で使用できず、逆に静かでした。 外の暴風雨の音が響きました。 結論として、スタッフはいいが、ホテルとしての設備が弱い。 ということで、「2」としています。 停電がなければ、評価は変わったと思います。 朝食(停電でしたが、食べられました。) 個別注文。メイン、トースト、コーヒー。普通です。 夕食は外で済ませたのですが、 ホテルのレストランは、たくさんの方がいて、 繁盛している感じでした。 ここで食べればよかったと思います。

ホテル自身はよいのですが、、、
ホテル自体はB&Bでよい雰囲気でした。隣接したレストランも美味しかったです。しか~し、、ホテルは夜10時過ぎには人がいなくなり何かあった時に対応がしてもらえません。。(要はレストランの人がホテル管理も兼任しててレストランが閉まると帰ってしまいます)夜は門番のセキュリティーの人が一人いるだけです。ただ、兼任しているレストランのマネジャーや店員さんはとても親切で、早朝に出発するので朝食食べられないというと持っていけるようにランチボックスにしてくれました。しかし、早朝出発して夜遅く帰ってくる場合は困ることが多かったです。部屋にドライヤーがないのとタオルが足りなくてもどうしようもなくて、、困りました。。ホテルが居心地いいだけに非常に残念です!

値段の割に広く、そつのない朝食がいい
ホテルにフロントというものがなく、門番のガードマンが対応。レストランの営業がメインで、脇に部屋を作りました、という感じの宿です。朝食は選べますが、オプションでオーダーしたフルーツの盛り合わせと自家製のグラノーラが安くてうまくてこれを朝食にほんの少しの別料金を払って加えるだけで一気に満足度が上がりました。アジアのゲストハウスでは普通かもしれませんが、シャワーの出が弱いので、ホテルというよりはちょっと立派なゲストハウスに泊まる感覚でいた方が満足度は高くなるでしょう(^^)私的には十分満足でした。

Ok for one night. The restaurant was not available for me as they had some private celebration, which didn't improve on my impression. The neighborhood seemed quiet and far from heavy traffic.
