Success is due to Xiao He, and failure is also due to Xiao He.
After staying in Longgang, Shenzhen for two days, the client asked us to move to the Shenzhen-Shantou Cooperation Zone for another report, which led to a change in my schedule. I planned to take the train back to Shenzhen that night after the report, and then find a hotel on the route from Shenzhen North Station to Bao'an Airport so that I could fly back to Shanghai early the next morning.
After a search, I chose Zhonghao Yueji Hotel. There are several considerations for choosing Zhonghao Yueji Hotel. First, it is close to the subway. After all, I arrived in Shenzhen very late at night, and I don’t want to drag my luggage for a long way late at night like last time. Second, it is best to have a large shopping mall and supermarket nearby, and at least some brand restaurants. I am not sure if I can eat on the way back, so I have to prepare. Third, I don’t like to stay in chain hotels such as Hanting Yaduo, but I don’t reject chain hotels. I don’t have the courage to stay in an economic hotel. So after weighing several options, I chose Zhonghao Yueji Hotel, which is right at the entrance of Honglang North Metro Station.
But as I said at the beginning, success is due to Xiao He, and failure is also due to Xiao He. Being located at the entrance of the subway station is an advantage, but it is also a disadvantage of this hotel. There is a brand restaurant at the door, which is an advantage of this store, but it is also a disadvantage of this store. Let's talk about the former first. Because Honglang North is currently building Metro Line 15, the road excavation is uneven and winding. For me as a backpacker, it may not be a big problem, but it is really a disaster for passengers dragging suitcases, especially since the nearest subway station exit is actually on Chuangye 2nd Road, and the hotel entrance is actually in the alley of Xin'an 3rd Road. As a result, many people can't find the hotel entrance after leaving the station looking at the various shops on the first floor. This is really not a good experience. As for the restaurant, there are two good Chaoshan porridge shops downstairs, but the problem is that some people eat supper until the early morning, which is really unfriendly to the guests upstairs. I saw two pairs of earplugs directly sent to the bedside table in the hotel room. Obviously, this is also a helpless move by the hotel. The two major advantages have become disadvantages. Isn't this a matter of success and failure?
OK, let's talk about the hotel itself. The check-in and check-out procedures in the hotel lobby are relatively fast. The restaurant on the first floor claims to start at 7 o'clock, but in fact there are still many foods that have not been taken out at 7 o'clock, and the porridge and the like are not ready. If you are not in a hurry to catch a flight, it is recommended to go down a little later. My room is on the sixth floor facing the street. I am not affected by the noise. If you have trouble sleeping, it is recommended to request a room facing the inside when checking in. I booked a light luxury twin room. The room area is average, but it is enough. The main thing is that the bathroom is relatively small, and the basin and toilet cannot be separated. The shower room area is OK, but the sealing of the door is not very good. It needs to be carefully adjusted to ensure that the door can be closed tightly and the water will not be flushed out when taking a shower. The aisles in the room are not very wide, and the only bedside table is located between the two beds. It is estimated that it is not so easy to put the beds together. However, there is also an advantage in arranging the bedside tables in this way, that is, the space saved can be arranged with a chaise longue sofa by the window, at least the space utilization rate is still quite high.
Overall, the hotel itself is actually OK, but it's a pity that the surrounding environment is dragged down. It is estimated that the possibility of staying in this hotel again in the future is not great, unless Line 15 is repaired in the future.
