Living In The Philippines

I have sent via Chikka when Yahoo was not working a few times.
Can you receive from them?
Sending from Chikka worked great BTW

I stayed there for one night. It was the worst night I spent in the
PH. I got there and they did'nt know anything about my reservation,
they luckily or unluckily had one room left. The aircon barely
worked the toilet did not work properly, and the shower was a
nightmare. I don't think the place had been cleaned in a year. The
hotel was junked up! This is not a shot at them, but I slept better
on concrete floors in Pampanga with lizards and roaches! To be
fair, I did rent two rooms in Boracay from them. They were seaview
rooms which are the only ones I would rent. They were very
adequate. The staff was friendly, you had to go and get everything
yourself but that was fine, they don't charge an arm and a leg for
the place. The townhouse in Manila is in need of some serious
repair.
