Since we landed at Manila airport in the middle of the night, I booked a budget-friendly hotel nearby. Although the hotel is right opposite the airport, it's actually separated by an overpass and a highway, making walking a bit tricky. Coming from Terminal 3, you have to take a footbridge, and after getting off it, it's about a 10-minute walk. Since it was very late when we arrived, and I hadn't seen any mention of the footbridge in various reviews—nor did Google Maps show that you could use one—we ended up having to jaywalk. Fortunately, there weren't many cars at that late hour, and a locals helped guide us across. (Please don't try this! Looking back, it's pretty scary.)
The room is quite small, the bathroom facilities are rather dated, and there was constant motorcycle noise outside the window. Still, since it was just a transit stop to sleep for the night, we made do.
The pool looked nice. The breakfast was surprisingly good, and the yogurt was excellent.
