I stayed at Flogel Amore Pension House in Cebu and had a generally positive experience. The location is convenient, just a short walk from the city center and close to public transport. The room was clean and well-maintained, and the staff were friendly and helpful. However, I did notice an issue with the air conditioning—it didn’t cool effectively, even on the highest setting.
