This main picture is a bit misleading - this is the courtyard. Small hotel off a very narrow alleyway. Half our taxis were willing to venture all the way to the hotel. Just a short walk either way to busy streets, but was not expecting that. Staff was very friendly and tried to communicate with us. Breakfast was delicious. Room is very small but I hear that is typical for the area.

It is amazing. Staff incredibly friend and helpful. The room is equiped with all you need, lots of courtesy items. Definitely recommended

the location is prime. You can feel safe too. The hotel has so much potential, but evrything seems to be so old. the bedroom is so outdated, but clean. However the corridor and elevator are so old and smell bad. for the price is okay.

Check-in went very well. Staff was super helpful. I asked many small questions about things like currency exchange, food, delivery, etc.. and they were very very helpful. Breakfast had a good mix of food. I had forgotten about seeing showers as a closed-in space within a single room, but this was the only oddity that I found. My driver would not go down the narrow road to the hotel, but it was a short and easy walk down the narrow Road to number 46. Food options in the courtyard outside were also excellent. Had a beer and aFood options in the courtyard outside we’re also excellent. Had a beer and a burger and was very happy.

Dirty.

Everything was great and unique

Great place. Clear glass bathroom lacks privacy, but the place is so awesome. Great restaurants etc nearby

The service was five star. The rooms were very clean and spacious. Even the cleaners in the hallways greet you with a smile and when you check in, they give you extra gifts and small items for convenience for free. They also give you a welcome tea as well there are so many sites you can visit walking distance. Also, the metro is nearby with lots of restaurants all walking distance.

Everything is great about this hotel. The WiFi may need improvement.

Great location, great neighborhood, clean comfortable rooms, great service

The hotel was situated in the Gulou area of the city, which is perfect for small shops and cool hangouts. It's a little difficult to find (maybe some extra signage would help travelers), but has a cool courtyard with bars and coffeeshops right outside. Theme of the hotel is "nostalgia" so you'll find old toys and vintage candies throughout. Also, important for fellow travelers who may have these questions: - convenience store on the corner with very cheap water, soda, snacks - attentive staff with excellent language translation software to assist if needed - few blocks from the Andingmen and Yonghe Temple subway stations

Very comfortable and situated in a courtyard with interesting bars and cafes. A little difficult to find at first but staff made themselves available through WeChat to help us locate the hotel.

Great location at a decent price, embedded into a small set of bars and a microbrewery (and still quiet!) and based near a lot of sites and shopping opportunities. A friendly and helpful staff which speak English (either directly or by app). Can recommend for solo travelers. The rooms are small, have an AC and are great value. Would book again.

Only challenge was flaky WiFi, staff are great location is practical and friendly in a real Houton neighbourhood.

Very friendly staff and great location!

This place is a little hard to find (it took me 10 minutes of wandering until I finally saw it), but the stay there was pleasant. One thing that was a little annoying was the noise from other rooms or nearby places. After nightfall we could hear the sounds and conversations of other people's social gatherings almost as if they were right under our window (they might have been, but we couldn't see). It made it difficult to get to sleep at night even with the window closed. Other than that the hotel staff were nice and tried to be very helpful. In fact, I wanted to order pizza delivered to our room but couldn't because I don't have the ability to pay online with my foreign credit card. One of the hotel staff ordered it for me with her online account and only asked that I give her the equivalent cash when it was delivered. We did the whole process together so I could see she didn't profit from doing it that way. Very helpful.

The people at the front desk are extremely nice and helpful, but their English is very poor, so communication is a challenge, so be aware that you will need some kind of translator device. Also, there is a bar right in front of the hotel, so it is very noisy at night time. If you want to get a good night of sleep, make sure to request a room on the backside of the hotel. The breakfast (not included) is fairly decent and the toiletries (included) very nice.

Perfect location. A short walk from 2 subways (Andingmen and Yonghegong) depending from which end of Hutong you emerge. Interesting streets at both ends of Hutong. Near Lama Temple. Scrupulously clean. Towels changed every day and even changed our curtains one day!

Best shower ever! Crystal walls in the bathroom though with a translucent shade, take that into account when booking. We had no problem but if you are not used to see/be seen while in the toilet, then it's not your toilet. Reception stuff speaks very limited English but they are always willing to help.

This hotel was in an excellent location, close to many tourist attractions but in a quiet and peaceful location. Our stay was very relaxing. The staff were all friendly and very accommodating to our requirements.
