This was the PERFECT place for this particular trip, as I needed to go to the US Embassy. It was a VERY VERY easy walk to the Embassy as well as several international restaurants which were very nearby. Also, a very quick walk to 2 different Subway stations (the easiest was Liangmaqiao). The street the hotel was on was fairly quiet and not heavily trafficked, however, not many taxi drivers were exactly sure of the location, but GPS can quickly help with that. We booked the windowless King room, but ended up with a lovely room, that actually did have a window. The decor in the hallways is a little unusual, but not unappealing. The room was extremely clean and well kept, the bed was wonderfully soft with a pillow top mattress, and daily service kept it clean and comfortable, The in room wifi worked extremely well, and allowed 3 laptops and 2 mobile phones to easily connect. The toilet, shower and sink all worked well, and there was ALWAYS Plenty of VERY hot water available. Complimentary bottled water was nice, and the fridge made it cold, if you wanted to wait some time to drink it. The staff were friendly, and very accommodating, very quick to help out, though most of them had limited to no English. However, between my Chinese ability, a dictionary, and their English, we were able to understand each other. I will ABSOLUTELY stay here again when I have to return to Beijing!!!
