Coconut Crystal Hotel (Taiyuan Zhonglou Street Shuixiguan Street)

Chose to stay here for a layover in Taiyuan. It's very close to Yingze Bridge and the Provincial Museum, with plenty of dining options nearby. It is a bit of a walk to the nearest subway station. That said, the hotel offers a simple complimentary breakfast, which is a nice touch.

The hotel is really good. The basin might be like Duncan's store, and you'll definitely understand it when you see it. You might even see your brother, what are you looking at? No, your brother is looking.

The hotel's location is excellent, making it convenient to get anywhere. The room was clean and tidy, and there are plenty of dining options downstairs, along with convenient shopping. The front desk staff, a very friendly guy, gave us lots of great recommendations for delicious food and fun places to visit.

The hotel was clean, well-equipped, and the service was excellent. Great value for money! I'll definitely be back!

This hotel was undoubtedly the worst of our 22-day trip. We booked three rooms, and without exception, the moment we entered the hallway, we were hit by a foul odor. We assumed it was coming from outside and thought the room wouldn't smell like sewage, but after sleeping there all night, it felt like we were living near a sewer. The room's facilities were outdated, and the cleanliness was appalling. The wallpaper was covered in dense, mottled stains, which I later realized were left by other guests swatting mosquitoes. The floor was riddled with cigarette burn marks, and the bathroom was even worse—I'll post pictures as proof. The room was like a breeding ground for mosquitoes, probably because of the odor. I got up at 3:20 AM to swat mosquitoes and couldn't sleep a wink until 6:30 AM. Although there was an electric mosquito repellent, it was completely ineffective, perhaps because the pills were fake. The mosquitoes just stayed on the repellent. Because we had children with us, we manually killed mosquitoes all night—I'm not exaggerating when I count—12 mosquitoes in total, not even counting the ones we missed. This morning at breakfast, the girl at the next table also said she'd been bitten all night. Seriously, this is what it feels like to pay for a toilet! In short, aside from a bespectacled boy at the front desk who was somewhat helpful, this hotel is utterly terrible, no exaggeration! Friends, definitely avoid this place! The next day, I had to use my travel plans to find another hotel. The next day, after checking out, perhaps to apologize or to avoid a bad review, they tried to add me on WeChat and send me a red envelope (a monetary gift). Given the hotel's cleanliness, I doubt any normal person would accept a red envelope. Since the hotel industry is so tough, shouldn't they be focusing on improving their facilities and services to enhance their competitiveness? We were all traveling with children and elderly relatives during the summer holidays, and our itineraries were all planned out. Because of you, everything was delayed. Who wouldn't feel comfortable? These pictures are just the tip of the iceberg; I don't feel like taking any more!

The hotel is great, clean and hygienic, with a plentiful breakfast, making it especially suitable for families with children.

It was absolutely disgusting. The housekeeper started cleaning while the guests were still in the room. She scrubbed the toilet with the seat still on, and then water dripped onto my own toilet seat cover. After that, she used the toilet brush to clean the sink. I was supposed to check in the next day, but this disgusted me so much I didn't want to stay anymore.

The room was quite small, and the bathroom wasn't very clean. There were small flying insects. However, the bed was clean. The small room is understandable given the good location. Free breakfast is included, and the central location is quite convenient.
