Everything was perfect. Very helpful friendly.
We was disappointed morning breakfast. In the picture before booking the picture looked very colourful. Its not for western countries. Breakfast is specially made for Chinese guests.

Spotless clean room. One of the best hotel bathroom with very good towls aand best toilets. Big problem was the suite was a loft design with a very narrow and winding stairs which is not very well lighted. Particularly difficult for 70 + years old customers. The living area and cabinet storage is too small for 2 adultsvto be comfortable.
