The location of the hotel is brilliant with all the sites nearby. Its a 10-15 minute walk to the metro. Super clean rooms. They have all provisions in the bathroom and provided all the cables and leads for charging stuff. The staff speaks English and was awesome and polite especially when it came to booking taxis as early as 6 am. They even stay on call with the taxi drivers if you need help with translation. They even have cards printed at the reception of basic Chinese sentences you need to get around along with a map of the sites of the city in which the subway map was super helpful. Cons: The breakfast timing is late so you have to skip it if you have an early start. Interior design is more euro-style minimalistic so not very welcoming. But the hotel is highly recommended. Loved the bamboo facade of the hotel.

The ceiling of my room collapsed a bit due to heavy water. It caused damaged to my things. I was transfered to temporary room overnight wihtout windows before they moved me to suite room.

LikedLocation is a double edged sword. Its 200m from East Gate of the Gugong and mins walk from Wanfujing. But for Tiananmen and Gugong visit you still need to take a car, so its only convenient in terms of when you exit the palace. In terms of general travel its actually inconvenient bc there is often heavy congestion on the main street of the hotel (bc of its proximity to Gugong), which means it generally take longer for Didi or taxi to get to you. Free drinks in the fridge was a bonus.
DislikedThe property is old, run down and very poorly put together: the hallway carpet is stained, hallway lights only partially worked, there were random outdoor alcoves and they were all dirty and left for storage of old furniture and brooms and stuff, the bathroom was dirty (the tub and the shower stall glass were stained), when I sit on the toilet, my knees almost touch the bathtub, the lamp on the desk was missing its base, there were stains and scuff marks on the walls and parts of the wall paper were peeling in areas, the main door was creaky and needed a hard yank, and specifically room 5501 smelled like a restaurant kitchen. Basically as you near the room at the end of the hall you can start to smell it. I believe its bc that corner sits above restaurant vents. I asked the front desk about it and they seemed to know that it was an issue and said they would "look into it". I asked to change rooms but they said they said the suites i booked were full and would let me know they never, but again never got back to me. It was a short stay, so by day 2 I couldn't be bothered. All and all not a good stay. There are better options at this price and the proximity to Gugong is a plus but not that useful. I have small kids to prioritized this, but in retrospective its not a bonus. Not to mention we had some "weird" incidents at night. We are 9 people staying in 4 rooms and 4 people had "weird" incidents at night.
