The hotel is located next to a city gate and Ming Walls from the 14th Century. It is a short taxi or bus ride to Zilin Mountains and Sun Yatsen Mausoleum. The rooms have a good size and are eqiupped with all necessities.
Great location, excellent staff, spacious room. Free water and a few beverages every day. Foreigners can stay here. The only downfall was that the walls were paper-thin. You could hear everyone talking (or shouting) in the rooms next to you. You could even hear the TikToks they were watching
