Jaro Travel Guide

Iloilo

Next to Vigan, Iloilo is the second oldest province I was able to visit. I love how they were able to preserve the establishments since the Spanish colonization and still use it in the present times. The city has its charm that makes you travel back in time. #WhenInIloilo #choosephilippines

They have an amazing laundry service, only 199php for 8 Kilos and only a 2 hour wait. However, the doors and windows do not seal well and the Air conditioning is very loud all night long.
