Douglas' place is very value for money if you want a good place for the Excel center. His livinig room, and dinning room is very spacious. It is less than 10 minutes walk to the West Entrance to the MCM and Custom House. There is a Nisa convenient store very nearby which is well stocked. Douglas has been good at communication, and has given very clear check-in and check-out instructions. The place has been kept to a very clean standard! As a host I can't fault him!
Unfortunately there are some issues with this place. First of all, it's not in a great area. On Saturday night after midnight there were a lot of shouting outside, and it sounded like a fight was happening. We also saw a random lockbox sitting outside on the road which doesn't inspire confidence. Also, the windows are not double glazed. So in winter it can get a bit cold!
However in light of the price and the short distance to Excel, I can recommend to budget minded travellers who are going to use Uber to get back to the house after dark.
