Besides the satisfactory service, other aspects of my stay are as follows:
The overall atmosphere of this hotel was rustic and homely, not overly refined, but rather embodying a sense of authentic life. The room had a slight smell of sewage, mixed with a faint, sour aroma, similar to that of an old hotel. There was no overpowering fragrance to mask the natural odors, which created no olfactory overload and felt more like a normal, residential experience.
As for sleep, the curtains let in a small amount of light at night. While it didn't allow for a complete slumber, it did prevent bumping into things when getting up in the dark. It also allowed for gradual acclimatization upon waking, minimizing the sudden onset of bright light, making it suitable for light sleepers. The guest room windows utilize the same plastic-steel material that's been used for over a decade, providing moderate soundproofing. While you can hear car horns and roars at night, as well as the chatter of children and adults, the room isn't completely isolated from the outside world. You can still feel the vibrant city life, and families with children can keep an eye on what's happening outside, avoiding missed orders, visitors, and other notifications. The overall soundproofing is also quite transparent, eliminating the need for frequent door knocks for family members, and allowing for easy communication between different areas, making it easy to keep an eye on children.
The room's amenities also incorporate practical design. The faucet is positioned close to the basin, requiring a slight adjustment when reaching in, but the water flows precisely into the basin, minimizing splashing and eliminating the need for frequent wiping of countertops, making daily cleaning a breeze. The towels provided are well-worn, with a natural fringed edge. However, after repeated washings, the fibers have become fluffy and soft, without the harsh feel or odor of new towels, and are exceptionally gentle on the skin.
Breakfast offers an opportunity to explore local flavors. The hotel's breakfast menu is simple in both variety and flavor, typically featuring four side dishes paired with basic noodles, without any complicated combinations. If you're staying for several consecutive days, you can opt for breakfast out. This eliminates the need to waste time choosing, allowing you to quickly satisfy your hunger. You can then explore nearby breakfast shops or morning markets, making each breakfast a new adventure. While breakfast is served until 9:30 AM on holidays, it can be a bit tight for those with children or those who prefer to wake up later, but it also allows you to plan your schedule and avoid wasting morning travel time.
The hotel's detailed service is also worth mentioning. A dedicated feedback board allows guests to share their experience directly, without having to go through a platform or headquarters. The hotel is highly efficient in receiving feedback and can promptly and effectively adjust its services. The hallways maintain a natural, residential feel, avoiding the feeling of over-cleaning and lingering odors from cleaning agents, reducing the sense of distance and making your stay feel like home. Overall, this hotel is more suitable for guests who prefer a rustic atmosphere, value practicality and convenience, and like to explore local life, making the stay experience relaxed and stress-free.
