My friend and I decided to book this property after seeing that the reviews on Expedia were not too bad but we had a shock when we arrived at the hotel. Our journey to the hotel from Beijingnan railway station took twice the expected duration due to road closures for the 80th anniversary Victory Parade and the road closures continued throughout our entire stay at the hotel. It was either extremely difficult or impossible to book a ride from the main entrance of the hotel - when we left the hotel to get to the airport on the last day of our trip, we even had to lug our heavy luggages to another area a few streets away before we could book a ride as the streets near the hotel were all closed off.
Throughout our entire stay at the hotel, it was nothing but unpleasant. The water pressure in the shower was so weak I could quite literally count the number of drops of water dripping down the showerhead and showering felt like a chore. When we informed the staff about the issue with the shower head, he told us to just bear with it since it is an old property. The toilet bowl could not flush properly and was clogged almost every day throughout our stay. Also, the housekeeping staff did not change our bedsheets despite our request even though there was a noticeable stay on one of the bedsheets. The bed itself was rock hard and sleeping on it made my back ache.
I don't usually write reviews unless the place is very good or bad but I will not be recommending this place to anyone
