12pm check-in - yeah right!!!
Our check-in experience was really poor. Part of the reason we booked this hotel was the 12pm check-in (as we were arriving on a flight at 5am). When we got to the hotel to drop our bags at 7am we were told then that check-in was at 12pm (as expected). We went out and came back at 12pm only to be told that we wouldn’t be able to check in until 2pm. The explanation given was that others had checked out late (but actually check out time is 12pm). It was really poorly managed and the wifi was so terrible. The room was very comfortable and the price was good.

Two critical drawbacks are: 1) You need to pay additional $500 CNY deposit to check in even you already paid and confirmed. 2) The additional charges were also surprised to me; such as a small bag of peanuts for 20 CNY and play table tennis paddle for 60 CYN. Those little annoying business brought down their hard working staffers. We do appreciate their staffs’ kind service.

Great location to MRT, main tourist shopping places and people's park. Staff are friendly and efficient. Room is spacious and clean but it is slightly outdated. It is valued for money given the location. Food price in CBD does cost a lot more than the suburb but it is beautiful at night for a stroll to the Bund.

Location is excellent, in walking distances to Nanjing Lu pedestrian street and the East Nanjing Lu subway station. Room was clean and the staff was super friendly. The only problem was the bath tub drain. It was clogged and still trained slowly even after service was called. Also, the bath tub was slippery. If you take a shower barefooted, the shower jell can easily make you slip and fall if you step outside of the anti slipping pad. So be warned (I know the is a sign)!
