The location is not the best but 20 minutes walk from the downtown is acceptable. Love the designs of the hotel and the amenities. The room is very spacious and has most of the things you’d need for a stay. It is really nice to see coffee machine and fruits in room. Everything is very neat and tidy. However, the check-in process was not satisfactory. It is really hard to reach out to a staff in the hotel. The self-check-in process requires an email from the hotel that tells you the room number and passcode. Since the only pin is got was the booking pin but not the check-in pin, it took me long time to realise I did not possess the check-in pin to enter the hotel. The hotline provided by the hotel was not working at all. Thankfully trip.com’s CS was really helpful in contacting the hotel for me. The hotel’s staff were really friendly and polite but the fact that I didn’t receive the room no and passcode beforehand was still very frustrating. Therefore the best advice to book this hotel is to check whether you have the room number and passcode at least 1-2 days before your stay. Other than the check-in issue, I had a nice stay here.

The hotel is self-serviced so you have to check in by yourself.

Overall it's clean and the space is not very big. It's just right for one person.
Unmanaged hotels still make tourists feel a little uneasy.
It’s not very convenient to contact us. I happened to meet a pair of Singaporean tourists. They didn’t receive the room code and were struggling outside the hotel for a long time.

The hotel is very comfortable. The sofa bed was already opened when we arrived. Remember to tell the hotel in advance how many people will be there. But it is self check-in, so please explain it clearly. But the overall feeling is good

The most complicated part was checking in. To open the combination lock at the entrance, you had to call a number from your cell phone. The hotel operates completely without staff. The rooms are large, there was a fridge, kettle, glasses and a few capsules - unfortunately there wasn't enough storage space.
During our 1 week stay there was no cleaning, no trash cans emptied, and no new bed linen.
But the price is extremely cheap, despite the dirt we would come back.

Because I couldn't return, I stayed the second night. There was no heating like the first night. I contacted Ctrip, and Ctrip contacted the hotel, but the hotel said no one could fix it. Okay, it’s really cold in winter. The guest rooms were not cleaned in any way. And they didn’t proactively send me the password for the next day. I contacted Ctrip customer service before sending it to me. But that code was not activated, so I was locked out again. I was locked out three times during my two-night stay, and the hotel did not offer any apology or compensation. Very rubbish!

I arrived at the hotel at one o'clock in the morning. It turned out to be a self-service check-in, but I didn't receive any notification. I finally asked trip customer service to solve the problem, but the experience was very poor!
The hot water was very slow, it took almost 15 minutes to get it.
Other environments are very good

The hotel needs to make a reservation and prepay before giving you the password and room number! Now that we have passed the non-cancellable event, why doesn't Trip.com directly confirm with the hotel in advance and give the guest the password room number.
We didn't have a coded room number, and the hotel didn't even have a front desk. We had to negotiate with an intercom at the door where the temperature was extremely low and wind-cooled, and we finally had to hold an ice bar to get the code and enter the lobby.
This was the worst experience in my life and I have stayed in hotels thousands of nights in my life! First time encountering this kind of thing. The name of this hotel is also called a hotel, not a B&B. How come it has such service?
Moreover, the customer service of the walkie-talkie can only speak English. My two friends who are with me cannot speak English. What would I do if I am not there?
So please trip.com pay attention to hotels that require a password room number in advance to check in. Have an explanation to the guests
Thanks.
