Gordon and Melissa are terrific host. Before the short stay I had, Gordon listed on his listing where his house was and recommendations where to eat food. His listing is extremely near the Tin Hau MTR and Causeway Bay (Tin Hau) bus terminus and there are lots of convenience shops, cafes, restaurants and a supermarket nearby.

Gordon will be busy working on his dragon boat machine and he's always interested in answering my questions. Gordon and Melissa talked to me when I came back at night about various things and the room was very nice and clean. The air-conditioning works well, the bathroom is of a reasonable size and the sitting area is large. It feels like you're with friends and you feel really comfortable. Melissa let me sample her wine. Definitely worth more a stay than a hostel. They even brought me to have brunch and ice-cream and invited me to a barbecue at Shek O with some dragon boat people they knew.

I went to Hong Kong to chase a specific bus model on a route. I failed to get it on the first day so Gordon even told me where a bus depot was so I could try my luck. I am thankful for his help in this aspect and eventually I did get this bus. Gordon and Melissa are always positive whenever I say I have some targets to achieve (ie whether it be my hobby of buses or for food searching). I always like that, it lifts up my mood.

For food-wise, Melissa is really good in where to go for food and where to avoid. There was an ice-cream place near the listing I showed her a flier from and she said the one we had earlier was better.

I will definitely recommend Gordon to any friend who is interested in staying in Hong Kong (if he's available that is).
