"The staff and service are remarkable, they help us anytime we needed (booking a driver for the Great Wall, tickets and transportation in general).
Food it’s okey, nothing special but clean
Also the room it’s great, very comfortable.
My unique observation is that the hotel is kinda old, and on one of the corners of the room had dust accumulated, also the strainer in the bathroom had bad smell, but with te extractor it was gone"
"The hotel is located directly behind the Dengshikou subway station exit, very convenience. We took a local tour and it happened that the morning meeting point was exactly at that particular exit, so it's just a 1-min walk from the hotel, no stress! There is also a 24-hour convenience store across the hotel to buy water & snacks.
Huge bonus, especially if you're visiting during hot summer, the hotel comes with a self-service laundry facility and they even include the detergent! Being able to easily wash all those sweaty clothes was a lfiesaver, especially in our case that we still had 8 more days in other cities after Beijing.
Breakfast was pretty decent with a lot of variety. AC in the room can be better though. Room is spacious, but pillows can be slightly thicker. One of our rooms was definitely warmer than the other despite turning on the AC continuously for many hours but the hotel staff didn't seem to believe us. It's still an amazing experience overall, would love to stay there again."
