Floral Hotel · Nanjing pipahang Boutique Hotel

"The room's decor was quite nice, and the cleanliness was acceptable. The most outrageous thing was that the bathroom had no door! There was no door to the toilet either, just a curtain. The bathroom door seemed to have been removed; there were sliding door tracks on the floor, but no glass door, so showering was cold, and water splashed everywhere. The sink was also extremely small, with nowhere to put things. Furthermore, the soundproofing was terrible; I was woken up at 7 am by people talking very loudly in the hallway, and the sound of the World Cup being watched loudly in the next room was also very loud. It was so noisy I couldn't sleep."

"The hotel front desk service was very thoughtful. I had requested a quiet room, and when I arrived, the front desk kindly upgraded me for free to an executive king room on the 19th floor. I felt right at home, and I believe they would try their best to accommodate any requests. Although the hotel breakfast selection wasn't extensive, the food was delicious, especially the xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) and pan-fried dumplings. They tasted homemade, not frozen."
