“The smell is bad”

The hotel location is good, just in the pedestrian night market. But, if you bring many luggage and come at night, the taxi/car cannot stop in front of the hotel.

The hotel location is good, just in the pedestrian night market. But, if you bring many luggage and come at night, the taxi/car cannot stop in front of the hotel. The amenities inside the hitel is quite complete. Just the feeling of local hotel with some bad smell just near the bathroom side is really ruin my stay. The receptionist cannot speak English well, but they sometimes understand, but their service is good. When we was there, we heard some other guess request to change room because of smell I guess. I think this hotel need to be refreshed with light colour of furnitures to make it bright.

The hotel located in a good location. Many Shops around the hotel. A grocery shop right opposite the hotel. The staffs were friendly and helpful. The hotel don’t have breakfast room, you have to dine out or in Your room. U could walk 20-30 minutes to pagodas and elephant hill. Cons: the room was quite wore out . The shower was broken . Pros: the location was good , the bed was comfortable. The bedsheets was clean and tidy daily. Tips: Some rooms were really small and we got change to bigger rooms. U can’t open your 30” luggage at the small room. U gotta jump over your luggage .

Room advertised with a fridge - there is no fridge. Hotel advertised as having breakfast available - there is no cafe or kitchen of any type. No western type food for miles. After staying at 2 other hotels in China prior to this & having comp water, we were warned by a staff member not to touch the water here because they charge for it. Beds were extremely hard - had to take the duvet off the extra "bed" (a rickety temp stretcher type thing) & sleep on top of that. Didn't appreciate having "ladies of the night" cards under door at night. Asked reception if there was any security, or could people from the street just wander in & go up & down the corridors at night. Suddenly, no-one spoke English (there was barely any prior to this, but now there was absolutely nothing). The lady on tour desk attempted to convey our concerns, but her English wasn't very good either.
