I had a nice stay at Charlie's El Nido, thanks to the amazing staff who went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. The complimentary airport shuttle was convenient, and the hotel's location near Lio Beach was a plus. However, the dining experience could be improved, as the breakfast options were limited and left uncovered. A few maintenance issues and timing delays also detracted from the experience, but overall it was still enjoyable.
