    “Breakfast fruits”

    Overall, it was a very satisfying stay. The room was very clean, and although the facilities felt somewhat old, they were well-maintained and it didn't bother me at all. The location is a bit of a distance from the MRT station, but there are two stations within walking distance and three lines available, so it was quite convenient for getting around. The breakfast was delicious, and especially the variety of fruits was very satisfying. The staff members were all kind, and I was able to have a pleasant time.

    “Exceptional”

    Currently, the pool is unavailable due to renovations, but there are no major issues. The room is spacious, and it's nice to have a separate bath and shower booth. The facilities are old, but there are enough outlets, so I don't feel any problems. The hotel staff are all friendly and welcoming, which is pleasant. There's a YOUBIKE port right outside the hotel, which is also convenient.

    “Manager Eric was especially kind.”

    I arrived an hour early before the check-in time just to drop off my luggage, but Eric upgraded my room for free, which was great! I was very satisfied with the hygiene and friendliness, and I actually liked that it was a bit away from the bustling area as the streets were beautiful, clean, and pleasant.

    “I am satisfied with the price.”

    The location is on a quiet clean street and is less complicated than Ximen Ding. In a way, it is close to two subway stations. There’s an MRT station one block to the north and one block to the south. It took about 8 minutes to walk to the station. There is a Sogo department store at the intersection of the northern station and a Din Tai Fung in the basement. The staff is friendly, and there is a male staff member who speaks a little Korean. The hotel is well-maintained for its age, and we stayed on the 10th floor, where the water pressure was strong. I asked the concierge to make a reservation for a foot massage at night, and they called and booked it for me right away, which was great. The breakfast is available on the 1st and 4th floors, but I only tried the 1st floor, and it was a bit below my expectations. There is an ATM on the 1st floor, where I withdrew cash using a travel wallet. They also store your luggage if you arrive early or check out late.

    “Best for a family of four to stay.”

    The cost-performance is excellent, and the breakfast is just perfect for a 3-night, 4-day stay. I think it might get a bit boring after that duration. The location is also decent, and there are many hidden gem restaurants around. I highly recommend Kiki Restaurant.
