Raft Dining in Misamis Occidental

I passed by this restaurant en route to Misamis Occidental Aqua Park. It's located about 100m before approaching the entry to the Park.

So far it was the only raft restaurant I've seen in Mindanao, so I thought about posting some pics and info about it. 

The place is cozy because of the wooden furniture being made and sold ondisplay by the owner. I thought it will be a good addition to the dolphin island itinerary. Disn't get to try the food though.

Hotel Ramon Cagayan De Oro

Arrived in Cagayan past 12 midnight and was looking for a lodge/inn with 12hoyrs option. I normally stay at Vines, but it's not practical to pay the full rate and will have to check out in 9-10 hours.

I also need to withdraw and the closest BPI i could remember is that in Divisoria.

Meantime, since I was already in the vicinity, I asked around for the rates on the nearby lodges. This Hotel Ramon had a P300/12 hours for single aircon room. The other good thing is they dont do 2pm check in and 12nn check out. They count on 24 hours.

Room is good, but, now, for the take, water run out sometimes. And, it can be colored brown! A big dont stay here for this accomodation.
