The hotel operator tried hard to contact me before I got to the hotel to see if I needed a shuttle from the train station (but my Chinese is poor and I misunderstood his phone call). He gave me a map and restaurant recommendations once I arrived. The hotel is about a four minute walk from the southwest gate, on a quiet side street (but the street is long). The ambience was lovely, and the facilities were fine - although the bathroom in my room is narrow so my knees touched the wall when I used the toilet. However, this is an old converted building, so I didn't mind too much. It was very cold at night in early May, but the room has a heater.
