Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The property is pretty new.
No onsite gym.
Has a good sized lounge on the first floor right next to the dining area.
Daily complementary breakfast: a mixture of non-authentic western style and authentic Chinese style:) Quality is good!
Onsite self-service washer and dryer.
Unfortunately, I stayed in two rooms; in both of their bathrooms, there was a strong sewage smell.
In China, there are sinks on the floor in the bathroom; I thought the sewage smell came out of those sinks because the water in the sinks' p-trap might be dry/low. But, after I poured water in them and took showers , the smell still existed. Not sure why:(
One last thing, the hotel has free wi-fi (speed is fast); but the connection is behind the great firewall of China, which means you won't have access to many web sites outside China.
Fortunately, I had Google Fi service with global roaming.
I had no difficulty using Google Fi service in China and, fortunately, google Fi connection roaming in China is outside its firewall. So, I used my cell phone as the wi-fi hot spot during my stay at the hotel.
Not sure about the staff's English capability cause I speak Mandarin; but I doubt it'll be good.
It's an economic hotel under Holiday Inn Franchise. Also, every room is equipped with central A/C.
But it was not powered during my stay (from 3/31/24-4/13/24) even the temperature rose passing 80 degrees. Regardless of the actual temperature, the hotel won't turn on central A/C until June.
