I agree.

That Ermita place was just awful...den of iniquity.

I always hurried quickly down that street, cos I was so embarrassed.

Usually I'd dive into a nice little bar called 'The Firehouse', to recover my composure.

A couple of pics of those places then....

I do have some more detailed photos, but I can't post them here...sorry.

There was a good medical clinic on MH Del Pilar though. I never had need of any of their services, but nice to see that it was swept out regularly.
