The Dallas Inn might be the best backpackers accommodation available in Puerto Princesa.
The place has a great high energy vibe and the wireless connection is pretty good for Palawan! (sometimes)

Free coffee in the mornings. Note the two paintings on the wall of scenes in the Batanes Islands.
Oring grew up in the Batanes – the island group way up north of Luzon. She is a good source of information about how to get there, where to stay, weather conditions, costs etc.

Michael and Niurika are visitors from Baja Mexico. Interesting people seem to be attracted to this place
Very cool people from Russia.
accommodation 300 – 600 pesos – discounts available – dorm room and private rooms
Free wi-fi – at times slow – at times fast – they plan to switch to dsl starting next week.
The Dallas Inn seems to have an unusual name but it’s actually owned by a Filipina named Dallas that ironically lives in Dallas Texas.
There are only 5 rooms so try to make an advance reservation if you can and try to get there before noon. This is the nicest place that I have found yet in my price range in Puerto Princesa.

The location is convenient – one street off of Rizal Avenue – so you can walk downtown in 5 minutes or less.
The NCC Mall, Jolibees, Chow King, Western Union, BDO Bank, M Lhuiler, tourist shops, Shakeys Pizza, Itoys cafe, the park and all sorts of other stuff is just around the corner.
Tricycle fares start at 7 peso per person for downtown runs. Just ask the fare at the beginning of the ride until you get a feel for the proper charge.
There are 5 rental bike shops on Rizal Ave just before you get to the airport. Palawan is perfect for exploring by motorcycle.

Thanks for your review, it helped me decide which inn to choose from in Puerto.
I chose Dallas and it was a great choice after spending 2 weeks in Palawan, now I made my own review of the place : )

Thanks Ms.Oring…My son and I greatly appreciate your warm accomodation..All the reviews I’ve read speaks of nothing but the truth.
Dallas Inn is very accesible to the main street of the place..walking distance to Jolibee,Chowking and other business establishments…
Dallas Inn,,comfortable and budget friendly…What’s more?It feels like home….
Hope to see you again…..
I stayed in Dallas Inn last summer (2010). It is a very clean and cozy place to stay, What else you want for 350PHP for a double room?
Just glad to hear that Ms Oring is going to install a better wifi network. It did not work well when I stayed there.
finally, after i read your review about dallas inn, and i decide to stay there in this december….
