Center of it all
Arriving at the hotel was a bit of a problem for the taxi man. Unfortunately, he was lost at first and when we called, it was the wrong number that it shows in hotel.com. Make sure you call with the right number before hand and have the address translated in Chinese characters from someone at the airport . The location is perfect as its perfectly centered to the middle of the city for a great price compared to all the other hotels within a 10 block radius. Arriving late (1AM), the security guard opened the door. I was greeted by a friendly staff with enough English to check me in. Going in to the room was plenty of space for the price. Great western type bathroom and shower with quick running hot water and strong toilets. The only problem was that there was wifi but the signal was too weak and my laptop didnt have a wired connection as the room had a wired connection. The wifi would come and go throughout the day but was solid after 11:30pm-4:30AM. Housekeeping was great and no problems. Checkout was a breeze as long as you keep the little paper they give you when you put down the 200RMB deposit. The last little draw back of being in the center of the city is that there is a lot of noise until about 11pm because its a happy and alive city where everyone is outside having fun and shopping since this is directly behind a very large modern mall. The bell tower is about 400 yards or 365 meters walking distance.
