Echarm Hotel (Nanning Convention Center Jinhu Square Subway Station)

The room is clean and tidy. Datang has free snacks. I have to eat a bowl every time I pass by. Sometimes it's jelly, sometimes it's tortoise jelly, and there's fruit tea Luo Han Guo. The hotel waiter Xiaomei provides good service. There is also an open-air swimming pool on the rooftop, which is super good for killing time. There is free laundry, and there is a gym. Washing and drying clothes are available. There is also free midnight snack at night.

A disappointing stay at the Yishang Hotel. This stay at the Yishang Hotel was abysmal, completely shattering my trust in the Dongcheng Group brand. First, the hotel's cleanliness was appalling. Upon check-in, I discovered unidentified stains on the sheets, hair accumulated in the bathroom floor drain, and water stains on the edge of the mouthwash cup—clearly a perfunctory cleaning service. For a chain hotel, even basic hygiene is unacceptable. Secondly, the soundproofing was practically nonexistent. Late at night, I could clearly hear the clamor of guests in the hallway, the sound of the TV in the neighboring room, and even the clatter of the hallway cleaning truck, making it impossible to sleep. The hotel is located on a busy pedestrian street, yet it lacks any effective soundproofing, causing significant inconvenience to guests who needed to rest. The service was also extremely indifferent. The front desk staff were expressionless during check-in and perfunctory when I raised any issues, simply saying, "We'll report it to higher authorities." At 2 a.m., the neighboring room was making incessant noise. I called the front desk to intervene, but after waiting for half an hour, no one responded. I ultimately had to knock on the door myself. The amenities were equally problematic: the air conditioning was incredibly noisy and ineffective, the shower water ran hot and cold, and the WiFi signal was intermittent. Worst of all, the elevator malfunctioned repeatedly, becoming stuck in the middle of a floor for five minutes. I chose Dongcheng because of its reputation, but this experience completely overturned my perception. The price-to-quality ratio was severely mismatched, and no remedy has been implemented. I strongly advise travelers to exercise caution when choosing this hotel, and I hope management will address these issues and prevent further damage to the brand's reputation.
