Having a vacation doesn't need to be expensive. There are various hotels or accommodations that can fit your budget. Where here in Urbiztondo, San Juan, La Union and I can tell you there's a lot of options. Options. Options! From luxurious beach front resorts to medium class road side hotels to cheap backpackers inn. Whatever you preference is, its all here. Certainly, it would be best to do your research in advance and do the booking ahead of time to reserve the room for you.

Angel & Marie's reception area 

So, our group booked a fan room in Angel & Marie's Place. It is a budget-friendly accommodation that can cater to your basic necessities. The establishment was named after the owners who were happily married and also had a cute English speaking daughter. (Chinismis ko diba? Haha!) When we arrived at the property, it is quiet because we were the only person inside. The reception; where they receive their guest is also within their restaurant. We met Marie and her loving daughter at the counter. They welcomed us with a smile then one of the staff gave us the key and showed us our room.

We went to Tangadan Falls in the morning prior to checking in at around 3PM. So, imagine how exhausted we were during that time. We're glad that the check-in process was smooth and fast. More importantly, the room is ready for us to occupy. It is very clean and comfortable. It feels sooo homey because we got there our basic things: a comfy bed, a strong electric fan, a tidy bathroom and a quiet location. Although the building is just along the road, you could hardly hear the noise from the inside.

Rates are subject to change. Please check with the hotel directly for the updated pricing.

Moreover, since we checked in at around 3PM, their policy allows us to check out around the same time on the next day. How cool is that? And the best thing about this hotel is; the rate already includes sumptuous breakfast for each paying guest. That's a big Yesss!! And it's no ordinary breakfast. The food they serve is home-cooked, looks sooo delish and smells really good. We absolutely had a heavy breakfast in the morning so we would have enough energy to burn while on the beach.

Angel and Marie's Place is not a beachfront hotel. Nevertheless, it is still near the beach. You just have to cross the road and walk a couple of yards away for like 5 minutes. Additionally, if you prefer to dine outside the hotel, you can just roam around and you'll see a bunch of restaurant serving different delicacies all around the world like Mexican and Italian  cuisines just to name a few.

Overall, if you're looking for an economical accommodation in Urbiztondo that provides an excellent service then I would recommend Angel and Marie's Place. Thank you and Ciao!!!
