We’re already on a series to give you some of the most shocking hotel rooms around the world we could find.  We started with a shocking hotel room in Russia for $40, then continued with the cheapest hotel room somewhere in China, where you pay $2 a night. This time, we’re taking a look at the accommodations Philippines provides for the weary traveler. It seems that where girls are cheap, so is the hotel room. And it’s only $2 for a night.

I’ve been in way better jail cells than that.

It looks like my old jail cell.

Im from the Philippines. Where exactly is this hotel that you say? The fixtures look way too old, there are hotels/motels in the Philippines that can rate to $2 but definitely the room and fixtures would have been a lot better.

looks like the place in NYC I stayed in for $150 a night!!!

Last summer we found a room (more a guesthouse than a hotel) in Laos for only 1$ a night (negotiated down from $1.50). Riverfront, complete with mosquito net and oil lamp. Upon entering a large rat jumped down from the ceiling and ran under the bed.

Wow, it might be more sanitary to just go sleep under a tree.

Hell, when I was in the Navy and stationed over there, we’d go to some pretty small towns and rent rooms. This is palatial!!! Of course Makati has some awfully fine hotels that I’d rather stay at!!!

are you sure you’re not in prison?

it seems like a mental jail. It fits you, you look retarded.

If it wasn’t for the nasty toilet, I could live in there.

Pfft, you’re travelling, don’t be a wuss.

Why are you talking to a lamp?



Posted by baer | July 17th, 2008 5:39 am

i would have spent the two dollars on girls instead.

When considering that room as a hotel accomodation, I was sickened by it. No way I would sleep in there!

Then, after reading comments comparing that room to a jail cell, I looked back at the picture and tried to imagine it as a jail cell I had to sleep in.

Suddenly it didn’t look as bad! I was ready to lie down, forget everything and go to sleep.

Not sure why I reacted that way. Maybe because I wouldn’t have to PAY to sleep in a jail cell?

Thats a bathroom with a cot in it.

They call that complimentary breakfast.

LOL! Reminds of the those hotels that I spent the night somewhere in the provinces. I found one like this somewhere in Cavite (?), well not this squalid but would probably reach this state in a few years. I chickened out. i decided it would be better for me to sleep on the bus rather than on the who knows what infested mattress. nice find!

I’m from the Philippines. I live in Metro Manila (the capital city). I assure all of you that, that room is not a “hotel room” in Manila. It is probably just a house in the slum areas (I admit we have plenty of that here) that can be rented by anyone who desperately needs a place to sleep in and who can pay a hundred pesos (US$1).

The Philippines is a relatively poor country. Our citizens need additional income due to the ever rising prices of commodities. To avail of these basic necessities, some would rent out “rooms” in their own houses to anyone who is willing to stay. I seriously doubt if they have jacuzzis and room service, though.

If you people are looking for luxury hotels in my country, there are a number of them. The real 5-star hotels in the Philippines, such The Peninsula Manila, Shangri-La Hotels, Hyatt Hotels, or The Mandarin Oriental cost about US$150 minimum per night excluding food and transporation. Their amenities match those of the other expensive hotels in the other parts of the world. There are however, cheaper, but decent hotels or motels, but they are absolutely not like that in the photo.
