My first time to visit Davao and it was really fun! I had a chance to see some nice spots of Davao including some of the nice beaches of Samal Island. I stayed longer though at the city because MyHotel (where I stayed) is at the center of Davao so it is easy for me to find transportation to go the places we want to visit. I had saved money from my hotel budget :D to add on my shopping budget because the hotel price is quiet low yet the accomodation is great. Beside of air condition, the hotel have hot/cold shower, wi-fi access, telephone, cable tv and security cameras and of course nice staff. Having a good hotel to stay for a vist is a great help!
