One of the rooms facing the street around 400 – 500 pesos with air conditioning.
There is a bit of road noise but I stayed at this place for 3 weeks in Feb and March. The staff is a lot of fun and it worked for me.

Hi DP yes that iaLodge is an excellent place to stay. I have stayed there many times on the 3rd floor, internet works in the room and its always clean. Location is great, and its reasonable quiet.
Have some reservation about the food but dunkin is near by….

Hi Bruce – thanks for the kind words and other comment that you had up :) dp
I hope you’re feeling better these days. As you well know, life often takes a turn for the worse in the Philippines. We have to stay vigilant or set our affairs so that harm has less chance of coming our way.
Hi DP, can you help people suggest apartments that are not too expensive for people who wants to stay long in Ormoc City? Thanks. Hope to hear suggestions from you.
Hi Bonnie,
I do not have any ideas right now – it usually takes a bit of asking around to find the right place and this is simply a matter of timing – sorry.

To be serious and to tell the truth with no string attached, Ive been a regular customer at ORMOC SUGARLAND SUITES and what could I say not to make you people fool I swear to heaven ito yung the best hotel na accessible pa sa city at more affordable at the same time feel at home ka dahil they have customer service. What I like most is that they are far more advanced in facilities they had casinos and swipe key cards same as you see at Shangri la hotels but the difference is ORMOC SUGARLAND is affordable.
Hello Daisy – thanks for your info
