The staff and the owner are what makes this place so unique.They are willing to help with everything. But also the other guests are super nice and social:) The concept of decoration with all the colors just makes you happy. And the food served is super delicious. The location is not directly in the center but for that it is really calm.

Every thing is perfect. The receptionist Mischa, the cook CHACHA are all lovely and friendly. The pick up service is no problem at all. We are senior Austrian citizen ang I would like to recommend this back packers accommodation, they are not only for young people but to all ages specially if you want to experience the REAL 🇵🇭 Philippine way actual life. I salute for the personnel and high respect to them. Regards to all.
If you still have some negative things to say about SUN VALLEY, then there is something wrong with yourself. With their cheap price and good service what still do you want more

This is by far the best hostel we have stayed at in our 6 months of travelling. Merzah the owner and her staff are some of the kindest people we have ever met, and they honestly took us in like family. My girlfriend and I originally booked for 6 nights, but we ended up staying for 17 - That’s how much we loved our time there! We’ve met some incredible people in our months travelling, but this was the hardest goodbye by a mile! Amazing people and amazing hostel. We will be back!
Nothing not to like, we loved our time here

Super cute hostel, very nice location, best price in town, but most of it, the staff is just amazing, so nice and helpful ! They helped us to rent a motorbike or to organise our travel, you can book transfers and tours with them. They also serve food, the hostel is also surrounded by many good and cheap local restaurants. Wifi is not the best in the room but perfect in the reception, they have sofa and chairs to sit there. We rent rooms with and without air-conditioning, of course it's cooler with aircon but the one with just a fan wasn't that warm. We had such a nice journey there, Thank you !! 😊
Everything was so nice !

It’s great value for money, the staff are so lovely and accomodating, and the sense of community is absolutely brilliant. Great location, close to probably the most beautiful sunset location I’ve ever seen, and there was always something happening. It’s not luxury, but I’ll take community over luxury any day. Quick shout out to Arvid for being so helpful :)

Great place with a great vibe, the place is super cute and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Locates a bit out of the chaos of town which we loved, surrounded by nature.
The first night we got assigned a room in a dorm (that we had for ourselves) but the flush in the toilet wasn't working properly, there was not much natural light coming through the room. But the day after we were transferred to a double room which was much nicer
