Pretty Place Will Return Soon
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/17/05
I loved the gardens and the bamboo. The price quoted was misleading. They did upgrade my room but at a substantially higher price than quoted. The staff is friendly. Be careful if you can't take stairs to request a ground floor room. Also, they were tearing up the pavement and it was inconvenient. However, they do speak English which is a plus. I'll return because it feels homey and the bed was great along with little touches like adequate heat (Beijing winters are notoriously cold), a beauty salon just down the street and old town and central town access easily. Go if you can. Breakfast is nice and the gals are accommodating for special requests such as ketchup (the red stuff) and salt...
