I really like our stay in GC, housekeepers are very efficient, they cleaned our rooms everyday.
They even drop a thank you note when we gave them tips ($10/day)
I will definitely stay again at GC.
Kindly consider the time and your energy when you plan your itinerary. One more thing though, dont over exaggerate your itinerary in one day, its still nice to chillax and enjoy the place and experience, just remember that you can always go back to HK anytime.
Enjoy and post away your experiences for sharing.
