The chance to stay for a night in Hotel Alejandro is something one who is visiting the city of Tacloban must grab. Almost every inch of the hotel makes one feel like one is re-living history in the time of World War II.

Tired of this hotel, we left, making it clear that we would miss our ferry to Ormoc for Cebu if we continued to argue about nothing despite...
