Caritas Bianchi Lodge Mystery?

fmd_good Caritas Bianchi Lodge

So I stayed at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge in @HongKong last month. It's a pretty cool, kinda old-school place, tucked away. The staff were super friendly, but I noticed something weird. Every mornin… more

That's...unsettling. Origami cranes are usually associated with good wishes, or sometimes, remembrance. Maybe it was just a thoughtful staff member with a hobby? Or maybe the hotel has a bit of a quirky history you haven't uncovered yet. Have you tried looking into the lodge's background online? Sometimes old buildings have...interesting stories attached. It's probably nothing, but still creepy! Let us know if you find anything out.

Yeah, that's what I initially thought – a sweet, slightly odd staff member. But there were so many. Like, dozens of perfectly folded cranes, tucked into every nook and cranny. It wasn't just a few scattered about. And they weren't all the same; some were more intricate than others, different colored paper... it felt deliberate, almost ritualistic. I did check online; nothing about a quirky history or anything supernatural popped up. The lodge's website is pretty bland, just the usual brochure stuff. I'm starting to think it's less creepy and more...weirdly specific. Maybe some kind of local tradition I'm not aware of? It's bugging me though!

Lower floors facing the street in Hong Kong? Yeah, that's gonna be a gamble. Hong Kong is...loud. Even the swankiest places can't always fully block out the city's energy. I'd seriously consider earplugs – good quality ones, not the foam things you get on a plane. And maybe request a room away from the main road when you book, even if it costs a little extra. Peace and quiet in Hong Kong is a luxury, unfortunately.
