"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. Our room had a beautiful view, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The staff were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our visit. Breakfast offered a good variety of choices, and we enjoyed it very much. The complimentary afternoon tea had only a few items, but it was still a lovely and unexpected surprise. Overall, we had a very pleasant experience and really enjoyed our stay."

"I booked a one bed room and it’s pretty small. Vanity is outside of the bathroom room. No desk or chairs. When I shower, water is all over the toilet. Front desk is helpful and gifted me a small bag of cookies. Bottle water is provided as well as one time comb and toothbrush . Location is excellent, right next to Guanqian street. When you walk around, take metro exit 5, which has an escalator."
