Pros:

Лучший вариант остановиться в Думагете. Невероятно гостеприимные хозяева. Есть ощущение, что приехал клюбимым родственникам :) Великолепный вид с балкона. Очень уютный интерьер дома. Есть все необходимое. Чистота потрясающая. Нарядно, красиво, лучше некуда.

Cons:

Немного шумновато, но и локация в центре при этом хороша!

Cons:

I have booked a room in this hotel for my girlfriend for one night. But when she tried to move in, the area was closed, no one answered the phone. And there was some kind of crazy woman walking around the territory. And that's what my girlfriend wrote: "Kung dili mo ganahan ma stressed, ayaw nalang gud mo dre. Kay kaaabutan ka'g siyam² hinulat kung mo check in ka, di pa gud mo tubag ug tawagan, giatay! Nya ni entertain kunohay may something sa utok pud 'tong babaye di sya masabtan, sorry giingnan ra'ko sa silingan nga may sayad 'sya. Sayang 1,900 pesos. Wala ko ni check in! Nag book ko'g laing hotel room." And the cancellation was also paid, so I just lost 1,900 pesos.

Ruido insoportable en la habitación
Pros:

Irme

Cons:

El lugar está limpio y cerca del puerto.
Peeero, el ruido es infernal no solo no se puede dormir, es que no se puede estar ni en la habitación tranquilo.
Además no para en toda la noche..las motos en Dumaguete son especialmente ruidosas
Para subir a la habitación son dos tramos largos de escaleras.. es un lugar muy incómodo.
De hecho, no nos quedamos la segunda noche que teníamos pagada.
