깨끗하고 조용하고
"호텔이 상당히 깨끗하고 조용합니다. 근처에 무슨 공원이 있어서 거기서 분수쇼를 하는데 매우 볼만합니다. 대련여행에서 제일 좋은 부분이었던 거 같네요. 호텔 아래에 쇼핑몰이 있는데 식당도 다양하고 마트도 있어서 편리합니다. 이거 다른 사람이 알려지면 호텔료 올릴까봐 약간 걱정되네요. 시내하고는 살짝 거리가 있어서 디디추싱 타고 다녀야 됩니다만 그렇게 먼거는 아니고 호텔 근처에서 전철이 다닙니다"

Its a business development zone. Not a lot of western type tourist activities. But a couple of nice parks within walking distance. I did a LOT of walking when I was there. Not a lot of western travelers, so work on your Chinese!!
