Yyaya0103_2001Before my trip, I was a bit worried about this hotel because there weren't many reviews on Dianping, so I wasn't sure about the facilities. First off, the location is absolutely fantastic. It's only about 100-200 meters from the subway station, and right next to Chenghuangmiao Pedestrian Street, which is super lively with plenty of food, drinks, and entertainment.
Secondly, the hotel rooms. We got upgraded to a suite that had a small living area with a sofa, coffee table, and TV, perfect for relaxing and watching shows. It also had both a bathtub and a shower stall. The only downside is that this suite faced the road, and according to the older folks in my family, it could get a bit noisy. We stayed in a standard king room, which I noticed in a few reviews mentioned a specific tap. Our room actually faced the pedestrian street, but it wasn't noisy after 10 PM, so the soundproofing was good. The room wasn't huge, but perfectly fine for a short stay. The TV and shower were both new, and I was happy with the facilities.
Next, I was a bit concerned about breakfast, but it turned out great. While it's not as luxurious as a five-star hotel, the spread was quite diverse, and more importantly, everything tasted good. I especially loved the freshly made rice cakes with seafood noodles and the side dishes that came with the porridge. The spicy soup, candied hawthorn, and Osmanthus cakes were also a hit with my family.
Finally, the service. I found the staff to be young, clean, and very enthusiastic. We received a welcome gift upon arrival, and they even bought a cake for my birthday, which was a lovely surprise. The front desk also offered orange juice and small snacks in the afternoon. All in all, this hotel is very thoughtful, and I was thoroughly satisfied.
