Baguio City is one of the most visited tourist destinations in the Philippines. Being a highly urbanized city, Baguio offers a number of cozy yet affordable hotels and accommodations to stay in. Depending on your needs, there are hotels, inns, lodges, hostels and transient houses for you to choose from. So, if you're looking for a cheap and comfortable place to stay in Baguio City, I recommend Upstairs Bed and Bath.
Located at the heart of the city, it is very near SM Baguio, session road, restaurants, business and commercial establishments and Victory Liner bus station. Finding it is very easy, your landmark will be the Barrio Fiesta Restaurant in front of SM City Baguio where human size statues scattered all over the steps. Check-in time is 2:00 PM and Check-out time is at 11:00 AM, but since our room is vacant, we were allowed for an early check-in at around 6:00 AM.
We stayed at the dorm-type room with several double-decked beds. Since we're a group of 10, we rented the whole room. I noticed that it is somehow a dormitory for college students studying in Baguio, so it could be a bit noisy at times. But it's okay since we're always outside exploring the city and dining at different restaurants. We just had the room to keep our things safe and a place to sleep and take a bath. Upstairs Bed and Bath is really suitable for our needs.
The staff are nice, friendly and accommodating. They are quick in responding to our requests or when we needed any help. Each floor has a common toilet and shower area. I like it so much as the heater is working well. Other features and amenities include free WIFI access, complimentary use of computer at the lobby, common areas with tables for dining and 24-hour security. Each floor is also equipped with CCTV cameras to ensure safety and security of guests.
