Yuemingze Hotel (Qingdao University of Technology Branch)

I checked the location before booking, and it said the hotel was not too far from the subway. However, in reality, it was quite a long walk from the station to the hotel. I knew that check-in was at 2 p.m., but I arrived around 12 p.m. and asked the staff if I could use the restroom. At first, they said no — even though I had come a long way and was only asking to use the restroom. After some discussion, they finally allowed me to use it. I came back again at 4 p.m. to check in. The staff gave me a room on the first floor, but just five minutes later, she came to me and apologized, saying it was the wrong room. So I was moved to a room on the 5th floor. I asked if the room had already been cleaned, and she said yes. But when I entered the room, although it was small (which is fine for one person), the floor was covered with hair. That’s what they called “already cleaned.” I almost forgot — the towels in the room are disposable, and they only provide them once. If you need more, you have to ask.
