Pros:
1. The large floor-to-ceiling windows offer a fantastic view of Chengdu's urban landscape, creating a great atmosphere. Both the curtains and sheer blinds are electric.
2. The electronic fireplace is beautiful and adds a lovely ambiance when switched on.
3. The Wi-Fi speed is excellent.
4. Having two bathrooms is very convenient for two people traveling together.
5. The location is great, just a 20-minute walk straight to IFS.
6. Food delivery can come directly to the door, making it super convenient as you barely need to leave the room.
7. There's a washer-dryer combo, so even thick winter clothes can be dried without needing to hang them.
8. A huge full-length mirror is perfect for taking photos and getting ready.
Cons:
1. The soundproofing in the room is terrible. Not only can you hear the neighbors, but even slight noises from upstairs are perfectly clear, which really affected my sleep. I didn't sleep well the first night.
2. Some of the wooden planks on the stairs are loose, and the stairs themselves are hollow, making them very noisy when walked on.
3. The light and device switches are scattered everywhere with no labels, making turning things on and off feel like a treasure hunt.
4. The sink is rusty and looks quite old.
5. The elevator is very old and gives the impression of staying in cheap, rundown accommodation.
6. The diverter for the bathtub spout and shower head is broken, so both run simultaneously, causing water to spray all over the bathroom.
7. There are no signs downstairs, making it very hard to find the first time. The booking didn't provide clear instructions, only saying to find the front desk at 1509. It's not guaranteed that every '1509' means 15th floor, room 9.
8. There's no countertop space next to the sink in the upstairs bathroom, only a small shelf, which is very inconvenient.
9. The shelf for toiletries in the upstairs shower is plastic and buckles under the weight of shower gel and shampoo.
10. The manual lock on the main door is broken. If someone knows the code, there's basically only a chain for security.
11. You don't need a card to go up the elevator, and the doors to the room area are often left open, meaning anyone can pretty much get to your room door.
