8/10 Good
"Great hotel, right in the center of everything, walking distance to big walking street with shops and restaurants. One thing we noticed, hotel staffs have 1 same tune trying to get every guest to upgrade their rooms with extra charges. They would start by saying: "your room is not ready, but we have a bigger room with free breakfast if you upgrade and pay 250+ yuan extra...". If you want to stick with your originally booking then just say NO."
