Stayed at Garden Orchid Hotel - Zamboanga, Philippines.

Zamboanga was not the "terrorist central" I was ready for (at least not when I visited). Downtown was easily reached. The city was cleaner than some I've seen in the P.I., and it was an enjoyable visit with a penfriend and her daughter. When I needed a break from being a "family man," I was able to use their internet. The staff even opened the business center just for me for late night sessions! And, when that wasn't enough, there were massage parlors within walking distance of the hotel, and I felt safe walking to them at night. Then, I'd change hats and become "dad" again at the hotel. The Zambo airport is open air but comfortable. It is the only Philippine airport that searched my carry-on thoroughly this trip (though the female inspector stopped short of opening the compartment that had some of my personal things). While waiting, I had a massage from a blind man, and before I knew it I was playing bingo on Cebu Pacific en route to Manila.
