"Location
It's very close to Wanxiangcheng. It's adjacent to The Westin Hotel, so it's best to book a Westin taxi. Since it's centrally located, taxis can get a bit congested, but overall, the location was good.
Cleanliness
This was my second visit to Qingdao, and I had a good experience staying at another apartment before. However, there was dust where the beds were, unorganized liquor bottles in the kitchen cabinets, moldy wallpaper near the front door (as seen in the photo), and a sticky, almost Chinese-style sauce container. While not severe, there was a general feeling of cleanliness throughout. Perhaps it was just my accommodation, but overall, the cleanliness was poor.
Amenities
The air conditioning was described as centrally controlled, but I'm not sure if that's accurate because it was translated.
There are two rooms, each with two beds and a built-in closet for hanging clothes. There's one bathroom. There were three of us, so we just used it, but for four, it wouldn't be enough.
But perhaps it's just China, but the air conditioning in the living room wouldn't go down no matter how low I turned it. Each room also had an air conditioner, which was adjustable and kept it comfortably cool.
I set it to 21, but don't expect it to be 21 in Korea. I usually set it to 24-25 at home, so it felt about the same.
There are four elevators, but they take forever. There's a floor sign inside, but no outside, so you can't tell where you are. The lobby on the first floor is also hot.
Check-in and check-out are in room 3605. When you check in, if you add us as a WeChat friend, they'll bring towels and other things you need. I only received one card key, but I'm not sure if they provide more.
I stayed for two nights, and the cleaning service consisted of a simple cleaning, towels, and water.
The outlets all have the same voltage, so you don't need to bring your own.
It may vary from person to person, but I woke up with a sore throat. If I get a massage and relax and sleep there, I'll have a sore throat again.
This was my first time staying at this place, and aside from the cleanliness, I felt it was a decent place to stay for the price. However, if you're someone who expects above-average cleanliness, you might find it difficult.
If I were to go to Cheongdo again, and the flight and room prices are expensive, I'd probably go back again if I wanted to save money. Otherwise, I wouldn't!"
