18 Yi B&B (Shenyang Middle Street Joy City E Rubik's Cube)

This hotel is very good. It is located near the historical center and in a big shopping mall. Across the road there is also a very good liquor store. But if you don't speak Chinese, you better write the owner to get the exact address of the hotel because it might be hard to find it by yourself for the first time. In the end, the place is nice and the hotel is super. If we go to Shenyang again, we will book this hotel again.

Great Location, Some Communication Hurdles The location is very good, within easy walking distance to Zhongjie (中街), which is a major plus. The room was in good order, and the cleaning lady deserves special mention—she was very friendly, helpful, and did her job perfectly. However, the check-in process was a bit confusing. Communication was arranged via WeChat beforehand, but responses were not very responsive. This process seems more suited to locals who can easily make direct phone calls to sort things out, and it may not be the most foreigner-friendly experience. Overall, a good stay thanks to the prime location and excellent cleaning service, but be prepared for some communication challenges during arrival.
