The staff was minimally helpful, and found my lack of Chinese amusing whenever I attempted to communicate. The sheets in the room had stains on them, and they weren't changed when I had the maid clean the room, just neatly put back on. The maid would also clean the room regardless of the do not disturb sign, which was odd. The closest attraction was about a 30 minute walk away (Temple of Heaven), and theres a subway next to it. There's a slightly closer subway north, but only marginally. There's a bus stop almost directly outside, if that's also your thing. No real places to eat close by, and most things close around 9-10 unless it's a decently sized restaurant. The picture should of the room also are not a good representative of the room size. The king sized bed room was big enough to essentially walk around and nothing more. For the price, I'd definitely recommend a hostel.
