The story

Your basecamp for Baguio — steps from the view, big enough for everyone.

JSNL Transient House started the way most of the best places do: a family home in Lucnab, opened up for relatives chasing Baguio's cool mountain air. They kept coming back, then brought friends, then friends brought their own families — and the house grew to keep up.

Today the property holds five fully furnished units built for real trips: full kitchens so you're not stuck eating out every meal, living rooms big enough for the whole barkada to hang out in, and bunk rooms that turn "who's sleeping where" into the easiest part of the trip. Minutes from Mines View, Wright Park, and Camp John Hay, with someone on-site 24/7 if you need anything.
