The hotel is situated in a decent area, close to the Metro and near Laowaitan where the nightlife buzzes in Ningbo. I enjoyed the spacious rooms with a nice river view, though they could use a serious upgrade as they felt a bit worn and noisy. The service was a mixed bag; while some staff were very courteous and helpful, others didn’t provide much assistance. Overall, it offered fair value for money, but there were some downsides.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was quite convenient, with easy access to nearby attractions. The rooms had a nice view of the river, which was lovely for watching boats pass by, but they definitely need some renovations. Also, the service was a bit hit or miss; while some staff were friendly, I had trouble with responsiveness. Overall, it’s decent for the price, but it could use improvements in a few areas.
