Safely tucked in the middle of the buslting P. Burgos street is a quiet hostel that screams for attention.
Welcome to Lokal Hostel. Lokal Hostel is one of the pioneers if this fast emerging business righ in the heart of Makati.
upon entering one would easily notice colorful paintings on their wall. during my stay, i was assigned a single occupancy room.
the room is quite big. i mean.. B–I– G! the bed can easily fit two guests. there’s also a squeaky clean toilet and bath with hot and cold shower.
the entire hostel is dotted with colorful and vibrant artworks commisioned by Don, diretor of the hostel. he said, he plans to invite local and upcoming artists to showcase their talent.
Most of the guests checked in at the hostel are Europeans, mostly backpackers. What is I really liked aout this place is its pricing. For as low as PHP500 you already have a bed space that’s clean, secure and decent. There’s even a free towel, linen and WiFi for every guest to enjoy! there’s also a wide common are with comfy sofa, magazines, and flat screen TV where one can meet fellow bakpackers checked in on that day.
If you are not comfortable sharing the room with strangers, they also offer private rooms that’s good for single or twin occupancy. The uber friendly staff will always be there anyime when you need assistance!
another thing I liked about LOkal is its location. it is right in the middle of everything! its just a walking distance from the corner of Buendia an Makati Avenue, at the ground level is Family Mart, a new and upcoming convenince stor that’s open 24/7 and the rows of hole in the wall restos and eateries one can only fine in P Burgos (this deserves a separate post!) Tere’s El Chupacabra, Tambai, known for its delectable US Pork and Zucchini yakitori then just a few meters away there’s Senor Pollo for its yummy treats!
The place is so tempting I am already planing of going back there just to eat!
