1 STAYCATION GUIDE: WHERE TO STAY IN BISLIG CITY (MANGAGOY)

Selfie at the terrace at Tyffany's Inn.

There are no fancy hotels that you can find in Mangagoy Bislig City. That's why when I was searching for staycation prior for my trip, it was easy for me to find a place. I don't need to check on reviews, the important are accessible to most of the tourist spots, an air-conditioned room, (please don't judge me I can still sleep on budget fan rooms but if I were to choose I want a place where I can really sleep), and of course budget friendly.

You have many options where to check in around Mangagoy. I was calling for several hostels and inns, but unfortunately, some of the phone numbers posted are no longer active. In fact, I have emailed Casa de Babano which is more popular staycation in Bislig. Then I called Tyffany's Inn but it was just ringing so I texted them. Fortunately, I received a callback from them.

TYFFANY'S INN

This is a 3-storey building located in Castillo Street. Originally, we booked for a single AC bedroom for 600 PHP and we had an agreement that payment will be paid in full upon arrival. Although sometimes they require paying half of the price through a bank transfer but you can actually settle for an arrangement. Just make sure to update them three days before check in.

When we arrived we checked the room first and it is small. So we asked for an upgrade and glad that they still available two-bedroom at the third level for 800 PHP/day. Not bad! And it's near the terrace so perfect view to see the life in Bislig. Tyffany's has free wifi but only at looby, reception area. However, if you have a postpaid line, Globe and Smart have good internet connection.

Actually the room cost only 750 PHP but if it is included with breakfast then additional 50 PHP. You can contact Rachel at 0907-608-7403 for booking.

This is the 800 PHP room. I think they called it Matrimony.
