The hotel's location is fantastic, steps away from the lively Ningxia night market and a short walk from Shuanglian metro station. The rooms are on the smaller side, so not ideal for extended stays but are clean and well-equipped. The service was outstanding, especially from Alex Chang at Reservations and Emily in the dining area. The dining experience offered a fresh and delicious breakfast spread aimed at Chinese tastes. The facilities were satisfactory with everything you need for a comfortable stay.

I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at the hotel. The rooms, despite being small, were nice and clean, and the lack of a window turned out to be no issue at all. The room was actually quite spacious for me, impeccably neat, and very comfortable. However, I did wish for a better value for the price paid. The service staff, although generally helpful and friendly, fell short when we needed assistance with noise issues, which was a downside. The location was a major highlight with its closeness to the MRT and local night market, perfect for food lovers like me. The dining options were decent but could be improved considering the rich culinary scene of the city.

The hotel is conveniently located steps away from Ningxia Night Market, making it easy to access. The rooms are modern and clean, despite being windowless, they provide all the essentials like a kettle with packets of tea/coffee and a flat screen TV. The service was mixed, with helpful staff but a disappointing incident of being misled about moving to another hotel. The dining experience as part of the booking was satisfying with a generous buffet-style offering. The hotel's facilities are good enough to meet basic needs.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. On the positive side, the rooms were clean and had all the essentials needed for a comfortable stay. However, the presence of a Chinese tourist group with noisy kids was quite annoying. The service was friendly and accommodating, with notable staff members like Alex Chang from Reservations and Emily from the Dining Area standing out. The location, nestled near the vibrant Ningxia night market, was wonderful but slightly small. While the dining options leaned more towards local flavors, the buffet had a wide selection. The facilities were decent, although the limited choice for Western food and the issue with noisy guests were minor drawbacks.

I had a cozy stay at this hotel. The rooms, while not overly spacious, were flat down my suitcase comfortably and more than adequate for my needs. Facing the main road was not a problem, and despite being one of the windowless bedrooms, it had everything I required for a comfortable stay with two beds, a small desk with chair, a lamp desk, and a small en-suite including a sink, toilet, and a separated shower.
