On the outside it doesn't look much and even looks a bit rundown. Inside, you are on the ground floor where the carriages arrive and at the back are the servants quarters, it can look gloomy since not all entrances are opened. On the second floor is the main living area, dining area, kitchen & rooms, this arrangement is common with Spanish-Filipino houses. The whole house is maintained but is lacking financial reinforcement to fully restore it to its former glory. The volunteer guides are dressed up in traditional dresses, they are friendly and offer you native fans to beat the heat away. Overall, it was a nice experience.
Good house to visit aside from Negrense. There are a lot of pictures on the lower ground. Good story about the owner too.
It was not as big as the other houses and it seemed like they just put all the old things in that house. Although it would give you that nostalgic feeling, the place won't give you much of satisfaction. I recommend they improve their souvenir shop to attract more patrons. The place was already gloomy from the beginning so it won't harm maybe if they put something interesting to their patrons.
you would love to imagine life during those times..
This museum is just starting to be restored. It is in it's original form and looks a bit in disrepair. Even the tour guide is not that confident about the history of the house. I hope they get their act together soon.
