Caritas Bianchi Lodge: Hot Water Woes?
Stayed at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge in @Hongkong last week. The location was perfect, close to everything. But the hot water in the shower was… inconsistent. One minute scalding, the next freezing.… more
Yeah, I've heard whispers about the hot water situation at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge. It's not exactly a secret amongst travelers, unfortunately. Seems like a fairly common complaint. Could be an issue with their water heater system – maybe needs some TLC or a complete overhaul. I'd suggest emailing the lodge directly; they might offer some sort of compensation or explanation. Could also leave a review on TripAdvisor or booking.com to let future guests know what to expect. Good luck showering without getting burned!
Ugh, that's a bummer. Thanks for the heads-up! Emailing them directly is a good idea – I hadn't thought of that. And yeah, TripAdvisor review – definitely doing that. I should of mentioned I'm going in the off-season, so maybe it's even worse then. Hopefully, they'll at least acknowledge the problem. Fingers crossed for lukewarm showers at least!
Bishop Ford's Secret?
So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a friend's kid's school play. Heard it's a pretty old building...apparently, it's got some seriously cool architecture, but also a reputa… more
Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.
Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
