My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable overall. The rooms had a lot of beautiful details and were very clean, although it felt a bit cold at first. The staff was super accommodating and made my experience smoother despite the language hurdle. However, the dining options felt quite limited and unappealing for non-Chinese food lovers. The location had some restrictions on non-local vehicles during certain hours, which could be a hassle for some guests.
