Samar Island, Eastern Visayas hotel rooms at the Independent

"This was just a wonderful, clean, professional hotel. I was absolutely happy with every detail."

"Hotel room itself and crews are exceptional, breakfast was delicious.. except they never mentioned on booking about the renovation of the pool which family was looking forward to enjoy. So that's the downpart of the hotel,.. rather they told us during check in so, family was a bit disappointed, but rather than that, we had fun. "

"Wonderful"

"good place to stay if flying out of Tacloban on an early flight"

"A great place to stay"

"The Meaco Hotel is on the main street in Calbayog City called Magasaysay Blvd. Its a few steps from a shopping plaza called Super Metro which is definitely handy when you need supplies food clothes Ect. No breakfast though that is what Jollibee's is for lol. If you are around the hotel by 4:30-5pm you can have some excellent street food along the way. If you like basketball there is a huge court across the street. Timble drivers as far as the eye can see. 50 pesos can get you anywhere you need to go in the City walking around can be an asset at times & always be aware of your surroundings."

"Nice place for fair price"

"The hotel was very nice and the staff was excellent (friendly and accommodating). The only issue is there is not a lot of options for food as the city has no restaurant franchises. If you don't mind only eating local food from family run canteen style vebders? Then this is a lively place to visit."
