Reviews
The young lady at the front desk was learning Chinese and made a wonderful effort to communicate with us, offering practical and friendly advice and service. Our room was quiet and comfortable, and the cleanliness was excellent, with timely and thorough housekeeping. All the public areas felt safe and easily accessible.
Restaurant service was good, and the breakfast spread was plentiful with a wide variety of choices. Dinner wait times weren't long, and the food tasted great. They also offer convenient luggage storage and free self-service laundry and drying facilities.
The only slight inconvenience was that neither the front desk nor the restaurant accepted cash at all, which wasn't ideal as not everyone has a credit card. It would be great if they could allow payment with legal tender.
