I'm pretty sure that anything north of Pedro Gil would be Ermita. That would mean all of Robinsons Mall. Malate is south of P. Gil.
I've used are. Mall as a meeting place many times with gals I met online. As for direct P4P at the mall, only twice. The first time was a gal who was giving eye contact just outside the Pedro Gil entrance. I was about to go talk to her since she was quite good looking. Suddenly, an older woman cornered my target and started talking about religion. Very frustrating. I waited and my patience was rewarded. We had our fun at Cherry Blossoms Hotel, which was the first and last time I stayed there. The gal wasn't very enthusiastic. She struck me as someone who had an urgent need for cash and just wanted to get it over with.
The second time was shortly after closing and a young, cute looking stunner was with two other gals and someone we might call Mama, or M.
X: Hello.
M: You want girl?
X: Sure, how much?
M: Up to you.
X: How about P1200? (I don't remember exactly, but I started low and was expecting a bit of nego).
M: Okay.
Unfortunately, Ms. Cute then objected angrily to M. So now we are in a very public place and they are making a scene. I just walked away. I guess my opening bid should have been a bit more generous.
I'll agree with Transporter, you should go to the mall for regular shopping. But you never know! X Man.

Not sure it is called a beer house, but beer houses do exist here in Malate also. Actually what you saw may have been what the locals call casa. Although it is not the casa like before, it still is a boarding house for girls (they sleep upstairs or in the back) that work the trade, and it is also a bar where you can buy drinks and ladies drinks. Same as the bars in ac you can poke your head in pick a girl, pay the mommie and off you go with the girl. Or you can go in buy a bunch of girls a drink and make your selection.
In the main area of Malate I know of 5 of these types of bars, there are probably more, just haven't needed to go looking since the selection of opportunity is so high in Malate. Don't count on the selection to be great all the time, but it is very convenient, and economical to pull a girl from those bars, just do your interview well.

There are lots of FLs in the mall. As you enter from Pedro Gill, you will find them on the right, near the escalators and on the way to the departmental stores. You will also notice some go up and down the escalators as if they have come for shopping but in fact they are trying to hook up with someone.

To be truthful they are not brothels. They have reasonably pretty girls to entice you to come in. Drinks are overpriced. Set up is like Karaoke but they do not have karaoke machines. Girls will sit with you, drink with you, talk with you, joke with you, touch you enticingly but no grabbing. There are tough looking bouncers. Idea is to make money by getting you drunk. I did not see many customers when I went in. I was enticed in by a very pretty girl. I had couple of beers (expensive) bought the girl a drink (expensive) talked, got her phone number with a promise of hook up after work. I did not call her.
Sure enough next evening I get a text from her asking me to come to the bar. At that time I was in LA cafe and I texted her saying she can come to my hotel (Bayview Park) after work and we can spend time together and I will give her money. She said she will let me know. At that point I said I am in the process of getting a girl and if she is not interested she should tell me. Many texts saying I need to come to her bar and once she gets to know me she will go with me. I said no.
In conclusion it is like bait to get you in, sell you overpriced drinks. At least in karaoke you might have a chance to take a girl you are a big spender. I have done that in China. Also a girl I met on the street duped me but that is another story.

Posts: 451They are seedy and dark and dangerous especially if you foreign. They have been around a long time. When I first went several decades ago, some locals took me. And everyone was a little edgy because we hit like 3 before picking one they felt comfortable in.

I always tell them (no matter where) that I haven't changed into local currency yet, could they wait 'til I get unpacked and go out? It's moot after that — most all the time. Only issue with deposits is. If they 'forget' to give it back. In a checkout hurry, you may forget. At Central Park Tower in AC, take note: the reception girls seem to make a habit of forgetting to offer to refund your deposit, almost like they're fishing for it, as a tip.

Posts: 15925Deposit
I had paid my hotel through hotels dot com. When we arrived at the hotel, they wanted a 1000 peso deposit. Not wanting to give away my cash, I told them to put it on my Amex. They said they only take Visa and MC.
Always wondering what happens if you do not pay a deposit, I decided to test the waters. I said so you are not going to allow me to stay here? The girl went to the back to talk to someone and came back and said if I got anything at the bar or restaurant then I would have to pay for it on the spot. I said okay and she gave us the key to our room.

Posts: 15925Beer House
A few minutes ago me and my girlfriends were heading in. The Grab stopped at a traffic signal and to the right was two of those places I always see with Christmas lights around the door. I told her that I wanted to go to one of those places. She said I bet you do, assuming I already knew what it was. I said what is it. She did not want to tell me but I am persistant. She said it is called a beer house. You can go there and drink beer and pay women for sex. Why have I never seen those places discussed here? I see tons of them and have always just assumed they were regular local neighborhood bars.
