Tang Shan Hotel

It's been a while since I last stayed in a hotel of this category: mammoth-sized with hundreds of rooms, endless amenities and army of staff. While this category of hotels considers itself mid-range, from my perspective they are almost always overpriced. Not this one! I found it more than affordable and I would definitely stay longer or would come again when the chance comes. I enjoyed the feel of anonimity granted by the size of the establishment, the size of my room and bed, as well as the location. It was clean, especially for China, and well equipped with amenities. I had a great rest there.

The room is fair for its price, but there are several downsides. The bathroom was old and dirty, which was disappointing. While the room itself was mostly okay because it was affordable, I wouldn’t recommend staying here in winter. The room was very cold, the air conditioner didn’t work well, and it was extremely noisy. I ended up turning it off just to avoid the noise, but that left the room freezing. The shower barely worked, making it impossible to take a proper shower. Additionally, I purchased an extra breakfast, but it wasn’t worth the money. If you stay at this hotel, I’d suggest having breakfast somewhere else.
