Not so 5 star
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 5/11/10
I've traveled all over the world, and to China many times. Overall the Jinling is nice, decently clean, and comfortable. Breakfast was great one morning and terrible the next. We had to change rooms at first because they put us on a smoking floor, and for that they were accommodating; although, there was some confusion as one room included breakfast for two, and the other didn't.... that was strange. And we were not alerted to that fact until we were done eating. 150 RMB for a bad breakfast. Otherwise, I never felt like the staff was as attentive as they would be at other 5 star hotels. There was also much confusion with our room rates at checkout. Again, it's a fine place to stay if you can't find anything else, but it's no where near 5 star.
