I've stayed at this hotel at least seven or eight times since its renovation in 2024. Initially, to attract guests, room prices were set below 300, and the front desk would even give out little gifts during checkout. Plus, there were three or four types of free drinks in the mini-fridge.
However, from 2025 to 2026, the service quality started to decline, and the room facilities were neglected. Once, the only elevator in the basement was broken, and there were no signs for the stairs, so I had to walk up the ramp from the basement – it was ridiculous. The free drinks in the fridge disappeared, as did the checkout gifts, replaced only by a bottle of "hotel-specific" Nongfu Spring water.
Room rates also rose from the promotional price of under 300 to nearly 400. The room facilities, especially the air conditioning, were fine right after the renovation, but now if you set it to 26 degrees for cooling, once it reaches that temperature, it constantly cycles on and off, with the fan periodically starting and stopping. It makes sleeping at night very uncomfortable. Customer service told me to call them, and they'd suggest I use the ventilation mode, which is frustrating. I want cooling, but they want me to use ventilation? In some rooms, the toilet tank refilling sound is extremely loud and jarring, incomparable to when it was first renovated. The front desk constantly suggests adding them on WeChat and asks for good reviews.
With such increasingly disconnected service and poorly maintained facilities, how can I possibly give a good review?
