...even consider the shamefully shabby Days Hotel Cebu for your holiday. Our travel party had expected decent accommodations in this Days Hotel, since Cebu City happens to be one of the larger and exciting cities in the Visayas region of Southern Philippines (a cluster of islands in the center of the archipelago). Well, were we ever so wrong!

The Days Hotel Cebu is one of four Philippine franchises of the US Days Inn chain, and is located in Lapu-Lapu City on tiny Mactan Island, which is linked by two bridges to the mainland province. It's a few minutes' drive from the Mactan-Cebu International Airport, and a half-hour's drive from downtown Cebu City. It sits on the edge of the economically progressive Mactan Export Processing Zone.
Alas, it also stands as one ...

CEBU: QUEEN CITY OF THE SOUTH
Cebuanos celebrate life like no other. They strum their guitars and sing the "balitaw" when they're happy. They strum the guitar and sing the "harana" when they're sad. And when they pray, they dance!
It therefore comes as no surprise that the guitar is a prime product in Cebu which, quite naturally, has also produced a ... ...PLACE TO STAY IN CEBU: DAYS INN

Advantages: great location - close to airport and only 10 mins from beaches Disadvantages: room has not been decorated for over 10 years, carpets smell, no pool, rooms are small
...the rooms at days hotel are old (i found out from one of the staff that the rooms have never been decorated and the hotel is 10 yrs old), carpet smelt in the room we were given, the aircond is noisy and the rooms are small. the bathroom fittings, such as the towel rail was loose. the interior is dark. think green, brown, with the scent of stale cigarettes.
on a positive side, the location is excellent (read on for more information), they have a ... ...the bank. days hotel is dated. has no swimming pool and no internet in the rooms. if you want internet, you go to the business center! as with most hotels that don't renovate often, problems occur. my experience was a tap that continually dripped water and a (very) noisy aircond. complaining about the problems, simply ate up lots of time, with ultimately nothing that could be done. the servicemans comment about the aircond was "sorry sir, but this ...

Advantages: Affordable, near to the airport, great view of the city, friendly hotel staff Disadvantages: Upgrade in the gym equipments.
Staffs were all very nice and helpful. There was no pool but the water pressure is great. The "gym" was one of the rooms about half converted using old and pretty sad machines hope they update it to much latest gym technology, but they did have a few free weights. Other than that, the hotel stay was very good. It was a long (about a week stay) stay, and the room was very comfortable and pleasant and clean. And the bed was big. The jacuzzi is an added ...
