Great Stay! Highly recommend!
Pros:

Great location! Perfect stay for my family traveling with 2 small kids. Coco was great and helped us with recommendations with things to do and places to eat. Of course Pudding the cat was a real favorite with the kids.

Pros:

Hotelli oli rauhallisella sivukujalla. Metroasema kävelymatkan päässä. Hyvä sijainti omiin tarpeisiini. Kahden yön pikavisiitillä Pekingiin täältä pääsi helposti kiertämään nähtävyyksiä.

Pros:

The staff was exceptionally good. Max went above and beyond to help me when my internet stopped working. Thanks to her exceptional support, I was able to move around and reach the airport. Another staff (the guy whose name i cant remember) gave good advice on restaurants and things to do.
The room was large and confortable. Location was great, practical, near a shop and small restaurants.

Cons:

Room cleaning should be improved.

Отель на одну ночь
Pros:

Хорошое расположение для однодневного осмотра достопримечательностей. Чистый номер. Зерновой кофе (вместо скуднонго завтрака).

Cons:

Номер (или весь отель?) только на одну ночь. Из окна открывался вид на кирпичную стену, расположенную на расстоянии 30 см, что создавало ощущение полуподвального помещения, несмотря на приток свежего воздуха. Завтрак был крайне скудным, что стало неожиданностью, учитывая мой многолетний опыт путешествий, и характеризовался отсутствием выбора и недостаточным количеством. Обращает на себя внимание состояние стен под окном и потолка в душевой, где наблюдались вздутия и отслоения краски, вызванные протечкой воды.

Good location and well maintained
Pros:

Very good location, and calm in the night. It is close to the metro station and only like 1h walk from the Forbidden City, also 30m from Wangfujing. Ellie and the staff were also very helpful and friendly.

No busques más, es acá
Pros:

Es realmente un lugar perfecto para tener de base en Beijing. Cerca de una avenida donde podes cenar en lugares super locales muy baratos como tambien para tomarte un DiDi que te deja en 20 minutos en cualquier lugar a donde vayas. La cama era comodisima (mido 2m y peso 120kg). El desayuno esta Ok, no brilla pero no resta. Lo que es espectacular es la atención y calidez de sus trabajadores, en especial Max que tiene un ojo para el detalle y una predisposición fuera de serie, gracias por tanta buena onda y todo lo que hiciste por nosotros. La nota de color la da Pudding el gatito del hotel, mas bueno y lindo no hay. Gracias por esta maravillosa estadia 💖

We loved our stay and would definitely come back. All the staff members were incredibly kind and welcoming. A special
Pros:

I liked the rooms and the hotel’s facilities. I thought everything was very well organized and beautiful.

Cons:

We had a bit of trouble with the bathroom because the shower drain seemed to be clogged and the water wouldn’t go down properly, but aside from that, everything was okay.
