Nora's Place

Fun boutique hotel with small kitchen and clean comfy rooms. Staff was fantastic and called me by name every time they saw me. Nice pool area and I also saw many families and couples there. Nice restaurant with good options and prices. They have the best pizza on the island and people come just for that. If you don’t have to be beach front then this is the perfect place. The A/C blew cold and the beer was even colder.

I regret staying and bringing my family in Nora’s place. This is a very honest review. I believe the property is more suitable for backpackers and couples but for a large family with young kids, you have to avoid this property. One of the biggest issue was the cleanliness, I understand that this was only a 3-star hotel which could mean that there’s no standard of cleanliness. The bed sheets and pillow cases has old stains, hope the owner will eventually replace new bed sheets. The pillow itself was bad, it even showed signs of overused which caused it to discoloured and the smell wasn’t pleasant (pls see photo). The bath towels were so thin! Very old! It feels disgusting. The traumatic part was when my daughter had bad rashes all over her arms and legs during our stay. We suspected it was a bed bug but we tried our best to ignore the idea since we just want to enjoy our Bohol trip. As a guest, I wasn’t happy at all. I find the reviews deceiving. I should have taken into consideration that most of the guests don’t have young kids. It’s meant for barkadas and backpackers only. Hope the owner will take cleanliness more seriously.
