We had a pleasant stay at the hotel. It’s conveniently located near the Nanjing East Pedestrian Mall and the Metro. However, please note that the hotel does not offer self-service laundry facilities. A deposit of ¥2,500 was required upon check-in via credit card, which the hotel stated would be refunded. As of the time of writing this review, the refund is still pending.
