Im flying into Manila at 10pm & wanting to know if this is too late to find accomodation there or should I book it in advanced?
I saw somewhere here about Manilas version of Kohsan road but now I cant find it.
I will fly to Tagbilaran, Bohol & catch a boat to Leyte.
What Im looking for is cheap places to stay & where to catch the ferry from & any other bits I should know.
Cheers.

You should ask this in the Asia branches of TT.

That said, I was in the PI in 2005. Manika's bar are is in various areas but the main ones are in Ermita. There are classier places in Makati esp near Greenhills SC

That was Manila not Manika.

Also consider going to Boracay - a beautiful place.
