"Initially, I worried the room might be cramped when booking, but upon checking in, I found there was ample space to open my luggage. There was even a thoughtful sign suggesting we could slide our suitcases under the bed for more room. The hangers in our room were conveniently located right by a window that could be partially opened, which was perfect as clothes I washed would dry overnight.
I really enjoyed their breakfast. It featured miso soup, rice, and even sashimi, which was a welcome change from typical Western breakfast spreads and perfect for a Chinese palate.
A noteworthy perk is that the hotel offers complimentary hot and cold beverages like tea and coffee every afternoon. Additionally, during certain hours, they provide a selection of wines and nuts, functioning almost like a complimentary bar. The best part is, it's all completely free! After a day of sightseeing, returning to the hotel, we always made it a habit to grab a drink there before heading back to our room."
