This stay exceeded my expectations! The hotel's location is superb, right by the Yongning Gate city wall. It's super convenient to access the wall, find food, and hail taxis. The room was spotless, the bathroom had a great wet/dry separation, and there was plenty of hot water, though no shower cap. The mattress was just right – not too soft, not too hard. The Chengtian room had excellent soundproofing; I barely heard any noise. The front desk staff were also incredibly enthusiastic and even offered complimentary drinks. The common areas were clean and odor-free. On a hot day, it's nice to just relax with a coffee there. The facilities are comprehensive, and the price is reasonable, making it suitable for both business trips and tourism. I've already recommended it to friends. For families traveling with kids, I recommend the loft room (Chengtian); kids will love it! You can even 'climb onto the roof and lift the tiles' (a playful Chinese idiom for having great fun). The only issues were a slight tripping hazard where the stairs meet the bathroom, and also at the door frames between the bedroom and living room, which could be a bit of a toe-stubber. Just something to be mindful of.

The location is very convenient, and there's a lovely open-air cafe on the top floor that's perfect for photos. There's a bar downstairs, but only one washing machine, which makes laundry a bit inconvenient. Everything else was great though! 👍

The service was great, and the location was very convenient. The only downsides were the pervasive BBQ smell throughout the hotel, which was quite annoying, and a strange odor coming from the bathroom. Also, some of the walls were a bit peeling.
