Cheap Accomodations in Cebu? Sugbutel is the Answer!

I have been to Cebu five times this year. And everytime I visit the the city originally known as Villa del Santissimo Nombre de Jesus, I normally book a hotel room. But during my latest trip to Cebu I didn’t book a hotel. What I got is a bed space at Sugbutel Bed & Bath .
