You get a lot for your pesos at this budget hotel, which includes a rooftop sundeck with a view of the water. Three blocks from the ferry in the heart of downtown, it isn't close to the good beaches, but guests tend to share rental-car costs and offer each other rides around town. The hotel can arrange treatments with the nearby Spa Aroma day spa. The Aqua Bar has live music on weekends (keep this in mind when choosing your room's location). The rooms vary in size; all have two double beds that can be pushed together to make one huge bed. Some superior (larger upstairs rooms) in front have balconies but can be noisy. Breakfast is included and dive packages are available. Pros: close to restaurants and shops; staff and guests share budget travel tips; friendly bartender. Cons: street and bar noise; limited street parking.
