"The room is clean matches the photos, the wifi is very weak. The location is convient and close to nanjing road and peoples square. The area is currently doing a urban renewal project so lots of construction and side walks are either closed or hard to walk on due to construction. The window in our room was open and we cannot close them so a little noisy."
