Old and frail, street linking to the stay was like a ghost town after 11pm, will not stay again.

Small boutique hotel but superb quality. Self help Washing machines and dryers available, they even provided detergent and softener for free. Heated toilet, Dyson hair dryer.

This place is so peaceful and beautiful. And the location is a dream, right next to laomendong and the city wall.
They offered me an upgrade on arrival and the room was so big, I also enjoyed a nice bath after a whole day of being on my feet visiting Nanjing. The mattress and pillows are one of the best I have encountered in China.
All the staff is so nice! The breakfast is delicious and so well presented.
I honestly regretted having to leave, but was so happy to return in the evening!

Amazing hotel in nanjing located in the middle of the historic and turistic area. Just 15 minutes from Confucius temple. The hotel itself is AMAZING it really give off the vibes of ancient China. I will definitely come back and recommend all my friends
Response from Property: Hello, guest, thank you for your high evaluation of our hotel. The courtyard of our hotel is an ancient building with the precipitation of time. The ancient ginkgo trees of 400 years in the courtyard stand upright. The geographical location is located in the Qinhuai scenic belt, and the travel location is excellent. Looking forward to the next arrival of you and your friends!

The small courtyard is very artistic. There is a century-old ginkgo tree. It is a pet-friendly and cozy courtyard. The experience is great. Take a walk in the courtyard in the morning and evening, and sit in a rocking chair to drink a cup of tea. There is also a table in the courtyard. We ordered takeout and ate lobster and drank wine in the summer. It was so enjoyable.

I took my kids to Nanjing for a summer vacation and booked this hotel. Maybe because I had too high expectations, I was a little disappointed. Let me talk about it in several aspects.
Hotel location: I have to say that the location of this hotel is really good. Just across the road is Laomendong, and it is also close to Dabaoen Temple. It is very convenient for eating, drinking and having fun. However, the hotel parking lot is a little far from the hotel, and you have to walk a distance under the hot sun. Fortunately, the front desk guy sent us to the parking lot, otherwise we couldn’t find it.
Hotel facilities: It gives you a feeling of having everything. But everything feels a little bit inappropriate. For example, the hotel sells Dyson hair dryers. The hair dryers are indeed Dyson, but the socket is too loose, so you have to hold the plug with one hand and blow your hair with the hair dryer with the other hand. This posture is very funny. There is also the hotel TV, Xiaomi TV, but I don’t know if it’s been a long time or what, after looking for four or five remote controls, I finally found a matching one, but the TV was stuck and I suspected that the remote control was not matching at all, so I couldn’t watch it, so the child went from saying I like this hotel when he entered the hotel to saying I don’t like this hotel...
Service: It can be said to be two extremes, some are very good, and some I don’t want to say anything except swearing. The hotel front desk and the restaurant aunt are very polite, running around for you and asking you what you need to eat... The more annoying one is the cleaning aunt. I asked where the restaurant is, she looked at me, turned around and left... left..., and the look in her eyes is hard to describe...
Hotel rooms: Actually, it can be discussed together with the facilities, but let’s separate them. There is a lot I want to say here. Originally, I booked a backyard view room, and the front desk helped us upgrade to under the big tree in the front yard, which I am very grateful for. The guest room is really big, full of new Chinese style, which is in line with the characteristics of Laomendong. The room is equipped with a bathtub and a smart toilet. It can be said that it has everything it should have, but whether it is easy to use is another matter. These are indeed more challenging for later maintenance. The hotel may be a pet-friendly hotel. I saw many guests who brought their dogs to stay in the hotel. There is also a place to keep cats in the public area of the hotel.
Breakfast: It's a normal breakfast. The aunt will ask you if you want porridge, wontons, or noodles. There are also tea eggs, coarse grains, cherry tomatoes, grapes, and buns and shaomai, which are normal.
Parking: The hotel has free parking, but the parking method is to pay the normal fee first, and then ask the hotel for reimbursement. The underground parking spaces are still quite tight. Many of them are fixed parking spaces for owners, with ground locks, so you still have to look for them. The parking fee is so cheap in Laomendong. I parked for 24 hours on Saturday and only charged 10 yuan for parking. Even if it is not reimbursed, it is still quite cheap.
Finally, I hope the hotel will get better and better!

Response from Property: Dear guest, thank you very much for sharing your stay experience so carefully. Your feedback is extremely valuable to us. We are deeply sorry for the psychological gap that exceeded your expectations. In terms of location, although the transportation is convenient, the distance to the parking lot has caused you inconvenience. We will consider the optimization plan. In terms of facilities, such as loose hair dryer sockets and TV jams, we will immediately arrange a comprehensive inspection and maintenance to prevent such problems from happening again. In terms of service, we are very pleased that the enthusiasm of the front desk and restaurant aunties has been recognized by you. However, we will seriously deal with the improper behavior of the cleaning aunt and strengthen employee training to improve the overall service level. Although the guest rooms have been upgraded and equipped with rich configurations, we will pay more attention to the subsequent maintenance work. We will continue to maintain and seek to improve breakfast. We will also actively find ways to improve the parking process and parking space shortage. Thank you again for your tolerance and expectations. We will go all out to improve and look forward to bringing you and your family a high-quality experience that far exceeds your expectations in the future, and live up to your support.
