HhappylgIn summary: Excellent! If 100 points is a perfect score, I'd give it 120.
Location: Less than 400 meters from Pang Donglai Shopping Mall. Pang Donglai offers shopping cart rentals, so you can buy as much as you want without worry.
Parking: Free, but there aren't many spaces in front of the hotel, only about 10 at most. However, the hotel security guards were very helpful and found me a free spot nearby, which deserves praise. If you really can't find a space, you can park in the paid parking lot opposite Pang Donglai. It costs 5 yuan for the first 3 hours, and 1 yuan per hour thereafter, totaling 26 yuan for 24 hours. However, you can usually find a free parking spot.
Facilities: The hotel has basically everything you could imagine, and even things you couldn't. The breakfast was also good, and considering the hotel price, it was amazing. Don't compare it to InterContinental, Hyatt, or Hilton, though. They're not targeting the same demographic. They even gave us some snacks when we checked out. Highly recommended!
If I had to nitpick, one issue is that the hotel reception is on the 6th floor, even though there's space on the 1st floor. It would be more convenient to have it on the 1st, as check-in and check-out require going up and down, which is a minor inconvenience. Another issue is the thin slippers, which some have mentioned. It's not a major problem, but the bathroom sinks are outside the rooms, making the floor slippery after washing up or showering. I suggest putting a floor mat near the sink and shower area; it absorbs water and prevents slipping, and it doesn't add much extra cost, since even thicker slippers won't be worn wet.
Finally, if you want to shop at Pang Donglai, be sure to arrive before 9:30 am to queue and try to be among the first to enter. I arrived late and was only in the second batch; I waited outside for half an hour, and the place was already packed inside.
