Complete with a private bathroom fitted with a bidet and free toiletries, all guest rooms at the hostel have a flat-screen TV and air conditioning, and selected rooms also offer a terrace. At Claytown Pension House all rooms have bed linen and towels.

Claytown is my ultimate favorite guest house ever. The staff have assisted me with the everything possible. They exemplify the highest standards of hotel hospitality. And their little boy shines with all the love and positive attention he receives from his remarkable parents. There are good restaurants within walking distance. And a fruit and vegetable market and a small grocery store.

Surrounded by mango and bamboo trees, The Flying Fish Hostel offers peaceful accommodation in Dumaguete, 1.1 km from Negros Convention Center. Guests can enjoy drinks at the on-site bar.

The hostel offers comfortable dormitory and private rooms for guests. Air conditioning, towels and bed linen are provided.

I stayed here 5 nights in mid-November as a solo female traveler, and truly loved the property - I do love a good concrete structure though! It keeps places cool and clean. Staff were abundant and super helpful. There are a few maps and guides in the lobby that give you ideas of what to do & see in and around Dumaguete. They were able to organize a trike for me to get to Dauin, about 45 minutes away (500 PHP). Live music on Friday nights. You can walk about 30 minutes to the center of town or take a shared trike for 10-15 pesitos. I took a Zoom interview at 5am on a Wednesday morning that didn’t crack, so I’d say internet is quite strong. Lots of tables & chairs to relax and chill, lots of cute lighting. The ROOMS/BED: MASSIVE! You could keep ALL your luggage at the foot of your bed if you want to, there’s so much extra space. I also appreciate the individual light, outlet, and bars to hang clothing/towels from. The rooms all have AC that can be adjusted as well. I liked how the bathrooms and showers are outside & well-ventilated, and soap is available. The restaurant Palmitas had a wide variety of food and dishes and open from morning to night, offering even snacks and coffee all day. While it may cost a bit more than other restaurants in the area, it’s great for convenience, has a great ambiance and an extensive menu.

Not to mention a really cool vegan restaurant Chia right down the street! Drinks at the hostel bar are also reasonable and great with soft music playing all day! Definitely recommend for a stay!!!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I booked one night in the dorm and one night in a private en-suite. The dorm was very good, with lots of safe storage space under the bed, and more space at bed level to have my luggage. There was even a rack to hang a towel or fabric for some privacy. No issues with mosquitoes in the dorm, probably because it has AC and a fan. I loved the style of the hostel. Bed was very comfy. Breakfast in the cafe next door was very nice. Close to lots of nice restaurants. Staff was useful. Would love to stay there again.

    Clean & Quite room in a lovely big home. Great location and perfect for a short stay. We stayed 2 nights and enjoyed the homeliness of this place with the family being so welcoming. Private and gated so felt very safe.

    I liked the whole vibe and aesthetic of the hostel. I stayed in the bunk beds and it was okay. They put me in a 6 bed instead of the 10 bed because the AC in the room was broken. It may be better if there was a curtain for each bunk for privacy. There's a little storage, lamp and power socket for each bed. The restaurant is great! I didn't have the chance to try the food but I did try their coffee and pastry (which is 40% after 6PM) and it was really good! I highly recommend the restaurant for it.
