The original budget room we booked that had no window had an overpowering and disgusting smell of cigarette smoke. I asked if we could move to a different budget room as I have a 4 year old child and this would not be healthy for her. The only offer I got was to upgrade my room. As I could not stay in that room with my child I had to upgrade. Some of the staff were friendly and some were very unpleasant. The location was great but the staff and the rooms could be much improved.
Response from Property: First of all, thank you for choosing us, and I’m sorry for any unpleasant experience you might have had; you booked a special rate room, and the photos might not have been as clear as you expected; we will work hard to improve the situation, and we look forward to your next stay.

Amazing
Posted on Jul 23, 2024
This is a pretty basic hotel, as one would expect for the price. But the location is very decent, not far at all from the old city, facing the river, and surrounded by bbq restaurants. Check in was pretty easy, which is not always a given when you're a foreigner staying at a cheap hotel. Staff were very friendly and helpful. I have to mark it down for the large stain on the bedroom wall, however. And the windows are very thin. My room backed on to a square with people playing games and chatting from the early hours of the morning, and there was no relief from the sound. My bathroom also had an odd corridor to nowhere. Not a complaint, just a little odd!
Response from Property: Dear customer, thank you very much for your affirmation of our hotel, and thank you for your valuable comments and feedback.We are very sorry that you feel uncomfortable, and we are deeply reflecting. In order to give you a better experience, we will strengthen internal coordination and strictly control noise to ensure that you can have a quiet and comfortable atmosphere next time you stay.

The hotel room was surprisingly spacious. The bed was hard but it was the first time i slept really nice. Outside of the window men are playing cards. Acrossp the street is a nice park and walking towards the old city there are so many restaurants.
Response from Property: First of all, thank you for your affirmation of our hotel, and thank you for your feedback, we are deeply sorry. We recognise that the noise was a nuisance to you and we will take steps to make sure your next stay is as enjoyable as possible.

The location is not too far from the attractions, but you still need to drive. The price-performance ratio is very high, the boss is very enthusiastic, the room is not big, the facilities are not new, but it is very clean. The hot water needs to be turned on again every ten minutes, which is not very convenient.

Very Good
Posted on Apr 6, 2025
Good location, despite not having breakfast or a partition for the bathroom shower. I had booked a non-smoking room, but it ended up being a room with cigarette smoke on the towels and in the room in general. Despite this, due to the good location it was worth it as there were shops and food nearby, as well as bicycles for rent all around.

The bathroom smells bad. When you open the door and walk in, there is a smell that needs freshener to suppress it. Outside the room window is the corridor, which is not much different from having no windows. There were blood stains on the sheets, but the waiter didn't notice them. If I have to look for advantages, there are probably two reasons: it is close to the ancient city and the room size is okay.

It is hard to find on Baidu map. It is not clean and the water leaks out of the bathroom when you shower. There is a window, but it faces the hallway instead of the outside, so not only can you hear outside noises in the room, but you can also enter the room through the window, which is a security risk. Unlike other accommodations, there is no desk. There is a narrow table, but the distance from the bed is ambiguous, so you cannot put a chair in between. It is very inconvenient to read a book or work on a laptop. Unlike other accommodations, they do not provide enough towels. There are restaurants selling dumplings, noodles, and lamb skewers nearby, and there is a grocery store where you can buy things if you walk a little. There is a market selling vegetables and fruits right in front of the hotel in the morning, so it is easy to get fresh food. Contrary to the advertisement, there is a sign that says you can only use hot water for 10 minutes a day. It was very unpleasant. The staff service was also poor. It is easy to move to the bottom of the water. It is not possible to move to the beach.

The room is relatively clean, there is no strange smell, and the overall environment is quite good. The soundproofing may be poor, but holiday hotels are hard to find. There is a park opposite the hotel, not far from the ancient city, just a few minutes' taxi ride away. There is a paid parking lot next to it. It's quite big, but it's enclosed and easy to miss. I took a picture of the parking lot.

Response from Property: You were more thoughtful than us and even helped us with the parking lot map. Thank you for your five-star review. We will try our best to do our best. I hope you will be in a good mood and full of smiles every day

The room was clean and tidy, the bed was very comfortable, and the boss was enthusiastic and introduced us to attractions and food. There is floor heating in the room, which is very warm when you step on it. Very close to the ancient city and close to the museum. The transportation is very convenient, and there is a casserole shop downstairs, which is good.

This is a folk-style hotel with terrible service. I booked it on Ctrip, but they said it had nothing to do with Ctrip. I said it doesn't matter to you, why can I book your hotel on Ctrip.com and even have to pay a deposit for the room card. I didn't want to refund the deposit in time when I checked out. I said you can leave and we will refund it to you later. They didn't follow Ctrip's agreement, they were the rules themselves, so it wasn't very cool. The room had no windows, but it was marked as having windows. The window was just a small hole on the side of the door. He said that was the window. But this small hole is open to the corridor, so it is the same whether it has this window or not. The smell in the room was so strong that we choked a lot. Then we asked them to change us to a house with windows, but the house with windows was smaller. They wouldn't give us the difference in price, so that was it. We came out to play, admit it, we can't do this. Just quarrel with them both vigorously. Forgot to take pictures

Response from Property: Dear guest, first of all, thank you for staying in our hotel. I am very sorry that it did not meet your expectations. I think you did not understand the issue you raised about the deposit. The deposit is to return to the original route and is not unwilling to be refunded. I guess you misunderstood. The room type you booked does not have windows. I guess you didn't look carefully, but we will also give you a free upgrade with windows.

The location of the hotel is OK. Very close to the ancient city wall. Take a taxi to Huayan Temple, Shanhua Temple is also very close. The family room we stayed in was of a good size. Relatively quiet. The sanitary condition is ok. The experience is good

Halfway through the shower, there was no hot water in about fifteen minutes. The air conditioner and heating in the room are not working, which is very annoying. The boss on the phone said: This is how we are. We can't guarantee that there will always be hot water. The air conditioner is fine. It must be that you have turned on the wrong mode? ? ! I said you come and give it a try, let’s talk about the facts! There is nothing you can do if the other party immediately changes his mind, and no matter what the problem is, it cannot be solved. The most basic hot water and heating cannot be guaranteed for a room worth more than 200 yuan. Still so stubborn and completely irreconcilable. (Later I remembered that when I checked in, the front desk said hesitantly, "The air conditioner in that room...". It was too late and I didn't ask further. So I clearly knew that there was something wrong with the air conditioner.) Other additions: In terms of hygiene, the toilet seat is a little dirty. I know you don’t have to worry about tourists during the Spring Festival, but what about after the Spring Festival? This kind of attitude is really chasing tourists🤷♀️

Response from Property: Hello! For the hot water problem, we installed an electric water heater, and we also have floor heating. The air conditioning problem has been repaired and there is no problem. During the Spring Festival, our hotel is the most cost-effective hotel in the ancient city. If there is any misunderstanding, please understand.
