Location +++++ Communication with the host. Aldrin (tricycle driver, ask the guard if he's not under the tree at yard 😃). #1 guy, good tour guide, too. Sari sari store close by in the corner is great, good food. C. Lawis street is full of great restos. Malou's ihaw ihaw, Bernie's pancitan, Lyn's burgers...

Cleanliness. Few things needed fixing (host took care of that commendably, excellent communication, so not really a problem for us, unpleasent nevertheless).
