I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was fantastic, right between the train station and the night market, which made exploring super easy. However, the room situation was disappointing as ours was in the basement and smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. The staff was friendly and always willing to help, but the dining options were quite basic. Overall, it had its strengths, but there were definitely some downsides.

The room we stayed in was located in the basement and unfortunately stank of cigarette smoke. We were at the top floor's last corner with just one little window, which made it feel pretty cramped.

The hotel offers a clean and decent stay with a friendly staff. Its location is perfect, right next to the Dongmen Night Market and close to the train station, which made exploring really easy. However, the dining options are mostly local food and might not cater well to western tastes. Overall, it's a good value for the price, but the restaurants could use some improvement.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel with its clean and spacious rooms perfect for triple sharing. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making the experience much better. However, the constant noise from heavy traffic was quite distracting. Overall, it's a good value for money with its great location near the night market.

The hotel offers a convenient location just across from the night market and near the train station, making it easy to explore the area. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful, which made my stay enjoyable. However, the rooms were located in the basement, which made them a bit noisy due to heavy traffic above. Overall, I felt I got decent value for my money considering the location and service.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the plus side, the location is fantastic, close to the Night Market and railway station, which made getting around super easy. The staff was genuinely friendly and went out of their way to help, especially during the rainy days. However, the room was pretty outdated and in need of some serious renovation, and I found the shower area quite dirty, which wasn't ideal. The dining options left a lot to be desired, especially with the breakfast being particularly bland.
