Wan SuwanThe apartment location is in good environment, going around with taxi is fair enough, however, the building itself doesn't exist on the map, only the neighbor one does, which made us difficult to find the right building when we first arrived, plus we have no idea that the check in room, is one of the room on the 5th floor, as in the address of the hotel, it just put room 501, 521 Gaolin Road, etc. I recommend to give more details to ease the check-in of the hotel description like, 'when arrive, please contact room 501 on the 5th floor to check in', also, the hotel should pin the exact building location on the map, otherwise, guests may get lost on first arrive like us, whereas people around don't speak English to help too.
The apartment itself is clean and in good condition with good space & layout. Facilities are good enough, except, the kitchen is kind of waste because there is no kitchenette at all, they only provide bottle water, glasses/paper cup & electric kettle in the kitchen, in which we expect a hotel apartment should have at least some kitchenette like tableware, cutlery, pot or pan (as they have electric stove) and at least a microwave oven & dishwashing liquid, which partly why we choose to stay in the apartment rather than normal hotel. This is one of the upset issues that we have for this stay.
The breakfast comes as McDonald's breakfast coupon consists of one small Berger & a drink, which is fine as McDonald is on the street level of the building itself.
Plus thing is that we can request for more bottle water & the disposable towel with no additional cost. Although the disposable towel is not so good to use as towel, they are still acceptable & hygienic, so, if you want more comfort, I suggest, bring your own towel. The washer works well, no dryer, but they provide hanger with drying space where there are windows open.
The nearest large shopping center, Wanda Plaza, is nearby, taxi costs only ~CNY10, where you can find lots of restaurants & Walmart, etc.
In overall, this property is good & worth of money.

Had a fantastic stay! The room was spotless, the view was great, and my kids loved it too. A special shout-out to the cleaning staff – one of them found something valuable and returned it. Their honesty truly deserves recognition. This hotel is definitely worth checking out!

Originally, I was greedy for being close to the dental hospital, but I was uncomfortable throughout the stay and would not come again next time. It is an apartment in the rental community. There is a small balcony with one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom. The facilities are complete but we can't use it for a day. There is a side door in the community that is broken, and outsiders can enter and exit at will. Opposite the community is the construction site, and the construction started early in the morning. The next morning, I found that the corridor was full of materials, and I knew that the apartment was still being renovated and it was not completely complete. Check-in needs to be registered at the front desk at the gate of the community, not the same building, if it rains, it is inconvenient. Travelers are required to register and brush their faces according to the homestay system, so it is not a hotel. The basement smells very heavy, my lover can't stand to vomit, and lick the nose throughout. The first time the front desk kindly gave us a room that no one had stayed in, but found that there was no waste cleaning at all. The rooms were gray, the sinks were dirty, and there was oil on the table. Changed to the next room, the health is better, but the house may have just been renovated, there is still a smell, and the bathroom is water, it is a smell. The bathroom wall is not a brick, it is a plastic board, I don't know if the plastic board has a taste. Just added the customer service butler WeChat and sent the license plate, but the next day I went out and found that I didn't record the system. WeChat didn't return, the phone was busy, the car behind was blocked by me, and finally I could return the license plate directly to the garage and wait for the license plate to be recorded. Going back to the room to check out, found that the password lock can not enter, a while invalid can not record or password error, the front desk still insisted on me to enter the old password, but it was useless at all, no one came to help, tossed for ten minutes, and finally sent a new password to successfully return the room.

Guest UserTitle: Great location and view, but challenging for foreign travelers
Review:
This property is more of an Airbnb-style apartment rental than a traditional hotel. While the location and the view from the room are excellent, there are several points that foreign travelers should be aware of.
Check-in: The front desk counter does not provide room numbers or guidance. You must contact the owner directly via the Trip.com app's call function. Note that the owner does not speak English.
Room Guidance: I was guided to the room by two young men in casual clothes rather than hotel staff. They took photos of my passport and face for registration, but they seemed unfamiliar with the system and struggled for a while.
Facilities: Hot water stopped in the middle of my shower; this might be due to the water heater settings or capacity. Also, the TV is only connected to a Xiaomi internet device, which requires a private account or additional payment to watch anything.
Wi-Fi: I scanned the QR code in the room, but the AP for my room (1906) didn't exist. I eventually managed to connect to the signal for the neighboring room (1907).
Amenities: Only disposable paper towels are provided. I recommend bringing your own towels if you prefer real ones.
Privacy: On the day of checkout, cleaning staff entered my room while I was out for a walk—well before the actual checkout time. I found their cleaning cart left inside my room when I returned.
Summary: It feels like a residential apartment converted into a rental service. It can be quite inconvenient for foreigners due to the unconventional service style. Stay here for the view and location, but be prepared for some DIY-style hurdles.

The room was very spacious and offered great value for money.

angiePPThis apartment in Xiamen offered a great overall experience and excellent value for money. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city!
The apartment is located right in the landmark Shimao Twin Towers. Xiamen can be very busy during peak season, but the elevators were generally smooth, except during morning and evening rush hours. The floor-to-ceiling windows offered an unbeatable sea view; I could enjoy the stunning ocean scenery right from my bed, making for a very comfortable stay.
The only minor downsides were that the room size was a bit small, requiring two people to navigate carefully around each other, and the washing machine seemed quite old and wasn't very clean, emitting a slight odor.
The location, however, was absolutely perfect. Sha Po Wei was just a few steps away, and the Twin Towers themselves have a shopping mall, offering a one-stop solution for dining, entertainment, and shopping, which made life incredibly convenient. Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street wasn't far, and getting a taxi to Gulangyu ferry terminal was easy, making transportation hassle-free.
The concierge service was thoughtful and attentive. They proactively asked if I needed room cleaning every day and were very responsive. Overall, despite a few minor details that could be improved, the sea view, location, and service were all excellent, making this a highly cost-effective accommodation choice for a trip to Xiamen. I would consider staying here again.

Guest UserPerks:
Near a big shopping centre, convenience stores galore, plenty of affordable places to eat, very close to the metro station, there is a gorgeous park 5~7 min walk from the flat. Many public bicycles to choose from (although with a foreign passport, only the blue bikes named Hello bike are available).
The room is gorgeous, with half of the room fitted with windows. Being on the 17th floor, the scenery is gorgeous. You can see the beautiful mountains surrounding parts of the area.
The flat is clean, with a kettle available, 2 free bottles of water, toilet paper, towels, free toiletry. There is a big fridge with freezer compartment in the kitchen. Comfortable bed. There is a big wardrobe with plenty of hangers. Free washing machine is a PLUS!
Downsides: Being on the 17th floor, it takes ages to go up and down..You have to queue to access the lifts.
The flat is noisy (the rain in itself, when touching the windows), the neighbours (I don't think the neighbours were particularly noisy, just the building having thin walls and ceilings/floors): You can hear the kid upstairs running, the next door neighbour singing etc. There is also a machine (couldn't figure out what it was) right next to the washing machine, it makes a loud noise 24/7, like a boiler.

I took a last-minute trip to Xiamen during the May 1st holiday, and hotel prices everywhere had skyrocketed. This place, however, remained unchanged. I initially thought it might be an older hotel, but the reviews were all positive, so I booked two nights. The location is truly excellent – right next to a subway station and across from a mall, making dining and shopping incredibly convenient. I was pleasantly surprised when I entered the room. While not brand new, it was well-maintained. Being a hotel apartment, it came with a large refrigerator and a combo washer-dryer, which is perfect for trips lasting anywhere from 3 days to a week. The machine wasn't noisy either. The subway downstairs made getting anywhere very easy. The room came with two bottles of water daily, which wasn't quite enough, but when I mentioned it to the front desk, they immediately gave me six more. Overall, my stay was very comfortable. The only minor thing I found a bit unusual was the breakfast – it was very vegetarian-focused, with no meat. It wasn't bad, just a bit different from what I'm used to.

The room was generally nice, with all necessary amenities, including disposable face towels, bath towels, and slippers. It was a duplex with decent soundproofing, and the bed was a comfortable firmness, making for a decent night's sleep. However, it wasn't as good as my first stay here.

The apartment is on top of the Twin Towers. The environment is very good. The staff has a good service attitude. The room is clean, tidy and bright. It is very close to the attractions. Shapowei is downstairs and Xiamen University is next to it. You can also see Xiamen University from the room. It is very convenient nearby. Supermarkets, restaurants and fruit shops are all very close. The front desk sister is very good to communicate with! Very enthusiastic. I feel that Xiamen is a very, very hospitable city! I will come again next time
