Reviews
I stayed at the Junior Suite, which is bright and spacious with a balcony. Hotel staff are friendly and helpful. The rooftop bar and pool are relatively small but good enough for a convenient sunbathing.
There's just a thin wall between rooms, so when the neighbors open or close their door, it's incredibly loud and you can feel the vibration.
After Ctrip customer service helped us communicate, we got a slightly brighter room. And then the fun began: you could hear the subway rumbling every five minutes, making it feel like we were sleeping inside a subway station!
