Pros:

Приветливый персонал, чистый комфортный номер.

Cons:

Не получилось расплатиться банковскими картами, платеж не проходил ни по mastercard, ни по union pay. Обе карты выданы били китайскими банками. Очень странная ситуация. Единственный возможный вприант это расплатиться через alipay.
На завтрак остывшая китайская еда.

Pleasant
Pros:

The first room that I got smelled a lot to cigarette even that I asked for a non-smoking room. The hotel apologized and gave me immediately another room and told me that a guest may have smoked in the room without their consent.

Helpful stuff at the reception.
Close to the nice hiking, nature spot.

Not very close to the metro station.

Good location, comfortable and friendly hotel, allows non-Chinese.
Pros:

Right next to the reconstructed TaiPing gate, just outside that is the White Horse park and a plank path up to the Purple Mountain and over to the Ming tombs, as well as the SE corner of Xuanwu Lake -- both excellent for morning exercise. A vibrant neighbourhood with many restaurants, and a bus stop with multiple routes including one to Nanjing Railway Station just in front. Easy walking distance to the JiuHuaShan Line 4 subway station. Good breakfast included. Loaned a nice big umbrella during heavy rainstorm.

Superb
Pros:

It’s perfect for a short stay or if you don’t plan to stay all day in the room. The room is very big and have all the basic necessities. Breakfast is good enough

Cons:

You can smoke in the rooms but if you are not a smoker it can have a bit of smoking smell. The bed is quite hard. It’s a little bit too expensive for the quality
