    Great tunes, Steve, to get things going! I’ve always used Google Street View to navigate Tokyo and other places around the world. I’ve just been looking around Bohol and checking out a few hotels to stay at. It’s a fantastic way to preplan before going anywhere-like being there before getting there, wherever that may be. The satellite view is also great for understanding the scale of an area and seeing how far it is from here to there. Indeed, many people miss out on using the great free tools available nowadays. Thank you for taking the time to make these great, informative videos. Have a wonderful night!

    I’ve noticed Filipino reviews tend to focus more on the staff and management of a hotel or AirBNB than the property itself. You really got to hunt to find a decent, clean, hotel for under $40 a night.

    Oddly Street View used to show the road going through our Barangay and another 4 way up in the mountains, but apparently they didn't go as far when they made a new pass

    Never do the hotels by the airport in Manila no matter what the airport taxis say. Have a plan ready before you go and stick to it. Pretty sure, they get a commission for how hard they sold me on that one. I paid $50 for a night and woke up to it raining on my hand. When I woke up, it was also raining in various sections of my room.

      The exception to this is the hotels in Newport which is the former "Resorts World" area by the airport. I have stayed at the Hilton there numerous times and it is truly 5 stars.

      @@elitepctechit and the Sheraton share the pool but are expensive. The Marriott is over priced but has a nicer spa. The Holiday Inn Express is much cheaper, free breakfast, they finally added to the gym last time I was there a couple months ago. Also, that area is walkable from terminal 3 if you don’t have too much luggage.

    I have used street view for years for this reason. Also download Google Earth. It's a cool addition. If your building a house and plan for example to do solar, you can see solar paths.
