Time One is an apartment/office building right in the heart of the Huaqiang Electronics market area It is very conveniently located by several major Shenzhen Metro stations, all within a few minutes walking distance.
Upon arrival at the building, there was absolutely no signage, so I did have to call the hotel (No English spoke by staff) to find the entrance, and was told to go to an elevator shaft past security and go to the 14th floor to check in...so this may be a bit difficult if you dont speak any Chinese.
The room was a large studio apartment with dual air conditioners, nice furnishings, and a decent bathroom and kitchen area, and even a washing machine out on a mini balcony.
On a positive note: the bed was relatively soft, not a rock hard box spring as typical of most Chinese budget accommodations. The staff was friendly and helpful(also unusual at an price in China) and they loaned me an umbrella when it was raining and watched my bags after check out the day I was leaving, so I could continue my mission in HQB.
Negatives: there was food on the table in the room and some sort of sticky spill on the floor and fresh stain on the sofa when I checked in. (I called and the staff fixed it quickly)
The door to the balcony wouldn't latch so the room was leaking 38C heat from the outside, into the A/C'd room.
The bathroom mirror light didn't work.
all totaled it was a good location and a decent value, and service was good....so I would rate it a 4 out of 5 overall.....especially compared to countless Chinese hotels I have stayed in over the past 15 years.
photos keep failing to upload, I give up on that unfortunately
2 negative notes: there was food on the coffee table,
