Guiuan
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (30 reviews)
"This is probably the best value accommodation in Guiuan and surrounding area. It offers efficient, accommodating available early check-in, efficient FD staff, and excellent freshly made Filipino breakfast. This 4-story property, unfortunately, does not provide elevator service making it a less than ideal place for guests with mobility issue. This deficiency is offset by a superb bell hop and housekeeping service staff that's eager to extend assistsnce when one is needed."
