Susan, you can apply for the 24 hour direct transit! And you can leave the airport to stay at a hotel, but you should first apply for a temporary stay permit at the immigration office.

Visa will be required if you plan to leave the transit area if you hold Philippine passport. I would suggest you apply a Chinese entry permit prior your trip if you need to leave the airport. No entry permit needed if stay within transit area
