I stayed at this hotel because I was planning to visit the China National Botanic Garden.
I am pleasantly surprised by this hotel in the following areas:
1. Overall cleanliness is very good. Rooms and common areas are kept very clean
2. Free laundry room usage for guests with washer and dryer.
3. Free coffee making machine, ice machine and water in the common lobby area
4. Though the staff are not very conversant in English, with my not so perfect Chinese, I can communicate with them easily
5. The staff are also very helpful and try to do their best if they can.
I could get taxis easily and go to the botanic garden, Capital Mall and the Paleontology museum easily.
There are some restaurants just outside the hotel and a local department store about 10-15min walk away.
All the staff are very friendly. My Chinese isn't very good and all staff helped translate. The location is ideal for attending the university. The cleanliness is amazing, and breakfast is ideal. (The highlight is the coffee machine for me!)
Found two cockroaches. Last time I stayed here it was in a room that was considerably cleaner. And there were electricians barging in at 09:30 this time. Which woke me up and was strictly unnecessary.
Would probably look for something else next time.
