    Modern and unique room with good size bathroom. Awesome, great location in Dongcheng district just off a combination of old, subway, restaurants, main streets, and Bell and Drum Towers, and temples. Easy check in and late check out.

    cute staff
    beautiful room

    Highly recommend for adventurous travelers

    I experienced staying in a beautiful spacious room with a modern vibe yet distinctly local flair. The staff were so cute, always ready to suggest places to explore and one even provided me with a local SIM card for my phone.

    It wasn't exactly cheap but the experience was worth it.

    cozy decor
    delicious breakfast
    sun terrace
    temperamental hot water

    I really enjoyed my stay in the Garden Room with its cozy decor and the delicious breakfast options each morning. I loved relaxing in the sun terrace and the garden area after a day of exploring. The only downside was that the hot water could be a bit temperamental at times, but it didn’t ruin my experience. 😊

    unique design
    hidden location
    small room

    Great ambiance and unique design throughout the hotel.

    I encountered several inconveniences. The location was quite difficult to find initially, as it's hidden away in a narrow alley. This made the arrival stressful and took longer than expected. The room was small and lacked proper lighting, feel even more cramped. It was frustrating not being able to relax properly in the space provided.

    delicious breakfasts
    unique design
    hidden location

    We explored the hutongs and enjoyed the nearby parks. The place is energetic, with staff who care and delicious breakfasts every morning. Loved the unique design and vibrant atmosphere! Don't miss the onsite dining options. They're great and super convenient.

    Our only downside was the challenge finding the location initially, as it's tucked away in an alley. It took some time to navigate through, but once there, it was worth it! Just be prepared for a bit of a walk.

    would consider staying here again

    The location was ideal, tucked in a safe neighborhood near local restaurants. Our room had a comfy mattress, private bathroom with hot shower, and air conditioning. Nice touches like a fruit basket and coffee machine were included. Breakfast was delicious, with choices like French toast and freshly brewed coffee. The staff were super friendly and helpful.
