Rates, Budget Friendly and Affordable Place to Stay in Iligan:
I stayed at D'Morvie Suites (Iligan City) for only 448 Pesos for 24 hours. The room has flat screen TV, AC, toilet and bath, WiFi (very slow reception). What's good in D'Morvie Suites is that the building is new, clean, affordable and accessible. CONS: The rooms are not so spacious and the condensed moisture from the AC's are falling on the floor by the hallways (DELICADO). The D'Morvie Suites in Iligan City has modern interiors and it's better than the D'Morvie Suites in Davao City. For a person on a tight budget like me, overall - it's a YES for me!
