The hotel in general is fine, I like the restaurant there, the room size is big enough for 2 people. Some of the staff are very helpful and friendly however there's still a few of those are not very helpful at all...
The location is alright but not prefect, it's 20 mins to the sea and 30 mins to 5.4 square by walk, of coz if you take a taxi then they are not too far.
I still recommend this hotel, but if I have a chance to revisit Qingdao I would prefer to live by the sea or near Zhongshan road where a lot of old buildings situated.
