"Upon check-in, the front desk upgraded me to a room with a different style, which was acceptable. The apartment building is around 30 stories high and houses several different apartment-style guesthouses, sharing 5 elevators. The wait time for the elevators was reasonable.
Pros:
1. **Excellent Location:** It's situated on an inner street behind Wanda Plaza, making it relatively free from main road noise. It's close to Metro Line 1 and several bus stops. Within 500 meters downstairs, there are numerous dining options.
2. **Decent Comfort:** For a guesthouse in an apartment building of this type, the room's decor, bed, and bedding are of an above-average standard. The room temperature was good, and the electric water heater provided sufficiently hot water (though it might not be enough for more than two people showering consecutively).
Cons:
Hygiene was acceptable, but not to a high standard. Signs of wear and tear were visible in different parts of the room. The boxes for toiletries were old and hadn't been replaced. The air inlet of the hairdryer had a thick layer of dust that hadn't been cleaned. Due to water leakage from the shower door, the bathroom door and the wooden flooring outside were a bit damaged. While these issues didn't affect usability, they weren't pleasant to look at. This kind of wear is normal for something that's been in use for 5-6 years or more, but it indicates a lack of maintenance. I agree with another review that if you're a germaphobe, this might not be the place for you.
However, for a price of around 100 RMB during the off-season, considering the overall quality of the room and the convenience of travel, it's quite good. But if the prices are higher during peak season, the owner would need to invest significantly in maintenance and upkeep to remain competitive."
