It was my first time with my kids to visit Iligan city during Diyandi Festival hoping to witness the street dancing competion, but unluckily the city administration changed the scheduled event to earlier date due to the stand-off in Zamboanga city with the MNLF faction group. Nevertheless we witnessed the 25 bouts amateur boxing in Rizal park, the 1st Mayors cup drag race competition themed "Eat my dust VI" that takes place in Tambo highway and a rally by militant group with anti-pork barrel protest and mindanao call for peace in front of city post office same day as the nation 41st anniversary of the declaration of Martial Law.
I made few research in the net two nights prior our travel regarding the accomodation with the keywords in my mind "Where to stay in Iligan City?" & "what hotel is affordable, with good service and just near the city proper of Iligan", but undecided with the information I gathered so instead I called up a friend from Iligan City and she recommended Jalexis Inn.
We took a bus from Bulua bus terminal in Cagayan De Oro City, it was a non-stop (RTMI) bus bound for Iligan City (fare 70.00 for S.P. -student priviledge) and we traveled for almost 1 hour and 45 minutes to reach our destination.
We ride a taxi just in front Iligan bus terminal, but beware prior getting a cab see to it first that they use there taxi meter for most of them are on "Pakyaw" basis.

Accomodation: JALEXIS INN
Address: 20 Zamora St., Barangay Poblacion
Rate: Single Deluxe room 530.00, Double Deluxe room 630.00
Opinion: Perfect place to stay in the city proper, a clean and quality inn with a very spacious room. Almost all the jeepney route is passing by the place, if you want to go to Timoga Swimming pool or Gaisano mall you can take a jeepney just in front of the lobby, and walking distance to the Rizal Park and other big stablishment in the city.
Dis-advantage: Quite old elevator system, will take several minutes to reach 3rd floor.
