The floor heating results in the room being extremely warm without having an opportunity to cool it down. Sleeping in the room was unbearable given the temperature, there is no AC and no window to air lit the room. The window is overlooking the hallway. After talking to the host, he only suggested paying for an upgraded room. In the morning when I checked out, he simply gave me a smirky smile which was rude.
Not all information about this hotel is correct, there is no bottled water and there is no 24h hot water supply. The water boiler is confusing and takes more than the suggested 20 minutes by the host.
The location is good with restaurants and attractions nearby.

I went to Datong Ancient Town during the May Day holiday. The room in this inn was clean and had no odor. I liked the small sofa next to the bed. The boss was very considerate in providing disposable towels and bath towels, and there was plenty of hot water. Parking is also convenient, not far from the inn, only a five-minute walk away. The location of the inn is very good. It is right next to the clock tower of the ancient city. It is convenient to go anywhere. There are many small restaurants downstairs, which is also convenient for eating.
The landlady was very enthusiastic and we had a great time chatting. I like your dog the most. I will come to your house next time to play (๑°3°๑)

Advantages: The location is good, just outside the door is the Sipailou and Daiwang Mansion.
Disadvantages: cold service attitude, small room, small windows, almost no windows, and small bathroom. The pillow also smelled rancid. The price is inflated. The car can only park in an abandoned construction site opposite, which is quite convenient.

The hotel staff was very friendly, the facilities are just right for spending a few days in Datong. The quality/price ratio is exceptional. I recommend it.

Satisfied, the location is very good. When you go out, turn left and you will see Huayan Temple. Turn right and you will see Fahua Temple, Nine Dragon Wall, and Prince Dai's Mansion. The price is also quite suitable. The service is warm and the hygiene is very good.

The accommodation environment was extremely bad. There was no air conditioning, so the air conditioning fan blew hot air. It was as loud as a plane taking off, and I couldn't sleep well at all. The room is very small and can only fit a bed. There was no electricity in the room when I woke up in the morning. The worst hotel I have ever stayed in.

The room is very hot. When the air conditioner is turned on, it makes a loud sound and is very stuffy.

Response from Property: The price of the special king bed room is cheaper because of the inner window. So I have confirmed with you again when you checked in. If you feel bad about it, you can not check in, and the order can be canceled for free! It is impossible to want cheap, good location and high-quality housing at the same time!

Facilities: Just look at the pictures for yourself, I won’t say much.
Hygiene: There is no ventilation fan in the room. After using the bathroom several times, the whole room smells.
Environment: I have to say that the place is very good, just near Huayan Temple, and behind it is a snack street
Service: Working normally, can respond promptly if anything happens

Response from Property: There is a ventilation fan in the room! The special offer for a double room is that the hardware facilities are not good enough, so the price is twice as low as that of a deluxe double room.

The room is particularly bad. It is very small. If you are tall, you can stand on the roof. It has a small window and the corridor is outside the window. The sound insulation effect is particularly bad. You can hear people talking outside. It is not clean and the service is not good. , the facilities are too old, it just feels like a small hotel

I can only give 2 points. 1 point is that the location is pretty good. 1 point is that you can cancel for free the day before booking. The hygiene environment is average. The disposable towels and bath towels in the picture are actually good for shoe shine. We opened the door and acted like we were ignorant because we were not accustomed to the climate the day before and had a stomachache. We got up at 6:30 the next day and wanted some water and paper. We were still sleeping on the sofa at the front desk because of our health and train schedule. We wanted to check out at 1 o'clock, but we were decisively rejected. I don’t know where the decoration is in the morning. The sound of the electric drill is very loud in the peak season. The double room is 420. I don’t know whether it is expensive or cheap. Anyway, I will never come here again.

Response from Property: Why should I ask you to check out at 1 o'clock? You check out at one o'clock, don't others need to check in? If you have diarrhea and are not accustomed to the local environment, can you still go shopping and come back at 12 o'clock? Didn't we open the door for you when you knocked on the door? Disposable towels and bath towels are given as gifts, but you still think they are of poor quality? No, please use a towel! You didn’t come back after playing at night. Everyone came back and we all went to bed. You didn’t come back until you came back. You didn’t want to check out in the morning. Don’t let people like you criticize you if you don’t delay. Can I let you live for free?
