Fantastic location with lots of shops and eateries just outside of hotel. Hotel staff is very helpful but hotel itself is very basic. The shower has no door/ curtain and is with the toilet inside the bathroom. So the toilet gets wet after a shower. Wash basin is outside of bathroom. They provide only shampoo and shower gel, there is no conditioner. There is no phone, fridge or TV in the room. If you need to phone someone in Guangzhou, you can ask front desk to call for you. There is a self-serve laundry room on 2nd floor with a modern standing steam iron there. You can check status of the washers and dryers from the comfort of your room.

Upon entering the hotel I was greeted by a nicely themed chinese hotel. My check-in timing was supposed to be at 2pm. When I arrived at the hotel, the room that I booked was not available so they "upgraded" me to a bigger room. I can't say I like the room. Corridors were a little gloomy and dark. The rooms were alright though. They were clean. What I couldn't stand however was the sewage smell that emanated from the toilet, and it was really really strong. Since shower area was small, toilet bowl would be wet after bathing. One thing really strange that happened was that when I used the toilet in the morning, the toilet bowl seat and ground was rather wet again, like someone had taken a shower an hour or so before. I remember clearly that I used the toilet before bed and it had already significantly dried from our shower that night. Initially I thought that my friend had showered in the morning but she said that she had not gone into the toilet at all since after her shower the night before. Creepy. Other than that, the location was pretty good with quite a bit of food options and a shopping street just downstairs. There were also quite a few bubble tea shops too which was a plus! Note that as the hotel is situated inside the "shopping square", cars are not allowed in. We had to alight right outside Luckin Coffee. But it was just short walk away. There were military people patrolling so it seemed quite safe.

Great value for a 3-star hotel and the staff were very helpful! I stayed here a few times in November during my month-long China trip. The majority clientele are international tourists because you can easily reserve on 3rd party websites, and is located in a convenient location - Guangzhou's Old Town (Liwan). Very close to attractions in Old Town, shopping, food, and cheap DiDi rides to anywhere in the the city. Includes breakfast which has a good variety of items, free laundry service, and was very convenient to store my extra luggage while I went on overnight trips outside of Guangzhou. Walking distance to the original Tau Tau Ju restaurant for dim sum and Nanxin for the city's best steamed double skin buffalo milk dessert. Just a few things to be aware of: The staff knows limited english, but the use of translation technology makes communication easier. Some rooms have more wear and tear than others, but overall are fairly clean. No big deal for me since I was only there to sleep. Shower is over the toilet. The twin room is loft style where you need to climb steps to get to the second bed, and can be cramped with 3 adults, or if you have more than 3 large luggages. About half of the rooms faces an alleyway or the adjacent buildings so there will be no views or sunlight. To avoid this, request a room that is at a higher level and towards the back of the building.

Cheap stay in an only OK area. It’s a shopping street but all the shops appear to sell the same stuff and it’s very generic. Far from the nearest train stations and taxis cannot take you to the door, they have to drop you off 600-800m away. Breakfast was very basic but free, service was excellent. Overall good for the money.

This was actually my second booking at this hotel, and I’m happy to say the experience was just as good as the first time. The staff were, once again, incredibly friendly and helpful - they even allowed an early check-in, which I really appreciated. The room was clean, comfortable, and free from any cigarette smell, which is a big plus for us. Breakfast was included and generous, and the overall service felt consistent with my previous stay. Just like before, the small lane leading to the hotel has a bit of an odor, but once you’re inside, it’s quiet and very comfortable. The location is super convenient, right in the middle of a walking street with easy access to food and shops. I’d definitely recommend this place and will keep coming back whenever I’m in the area.

The staff here were really amazing. They let us check in early, which was super helpful since we were traveling with kids. The room was clean and, most importantly, didn’t smell like cigarettes like other hotels in China - something I really appreciate. When the room we booked wasn’t ready yet, they upgraded us for free, which was a nice surprise. Breakfast was included and quite generous. The only small downside is that the hotel is located on a walking street, so the view from the room isn’t great. Also, the small road leading to the hotel has a bit of a bad smell sometimes. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay. The staff were friendly, helpful, and made everything easy. I’d definitely stay here again.

*5/5 Stars* "I had the pleasure of staying at stargazing platform inn and I must say, it exceeded my expectations in every way. From the moment I arrived, the staff were warm and welcoming, eager to help with anything I needed even if they don’t speak English but we managed with translation app. I have been to several countries with much bigger hotels but never had this much great experience. The room was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated, with a comfortable bed and all the amenities I required and they were cleaned everyday .Breakfast was great I enjoyed a lot it was perfect. But need to add black coffee, regardless there is Late coffee available. But what truly made my stay stand out was the exceptional service. The staff were friendly, efficient, and went above and beyond to ensure I had a wonderful stay. From recommending local attractions to arranging transportation, they were always happy to help. I will like send a big thank for the front desk guys. You guys amazing.💚💚💚💚 The hotel's location was also perfect, close to local restaurants and shops, yet quiet enough to ensure a restful night's sleep. There is a big whole sale market for clothes shopping. The rooftop was amazing especially at night. They will even provide tea while your stay. Overall, I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-run hotel with excellent service. I'll definitely be back!"

Convenient location with good amenities, but room cleanliness and smoking policy need improvement The hotel has a convenient location and offers a good breakfast, along with a nice bar on the property. However, the overall experience could be better with cleaner and more well-maintained rooms and bathrooms. One major issue was the lack of enforcement of the no-smoking policy. I was woken up by cigarette smoke coming from someone smoking outside my room on the second floor, which was very unpleasant. It would be helpful if smoking were strictly prohibited in public areas and near guest rooms to ensure a more comfortable stay for all guests.
