Suzhu Inn (Guangzhou University Town Branch)

One of the worst hotels I've stayed at in China. The location is nearly impossible to find, down the middle of a dark alley inside a walking zone where you might get run over by E-bikes. The only positive is that there are many restaurants to choose, but all are basically identical Chinese food options. The room was ridiculously small. There was no space for any luggage at all. Only one side of the bed has a walking path, so the other person must crawl across the bed just to get out. Mold covered the grout in the bathroom. The shower design is pitiful, and causes water to spray all over the toilet and everywhere. It's a Major slip hazard, you must wear slip on shoes! The plumbing sounded 100 years old, and I was awoken by the loud sound of splashing and gurgling pipes from the people in the rooms above us taking a shower. The bathroom smells of sewer stench, coming from the drain pipes. Very disgusting. The bed was extra hard, and any movement caused the springs to make strange sounds. The room has working AC, but it blows directly on the bed, making it uncomfortable to turn on during the njght. However, without it the room feels damp and muggy. Lastly, the front desk lady refused to give us two room cards, as if they were made of gold. Very inconvenient for two people, especially when every room in China requires a card just to run the AC and remove the humid air. Avoid this place! For the price, it was an absolute waste of Yuan. It should cost 25 Yuan for a night, but we paid 151. We left as soon as the sun came up.
