I didn't like anything except the location.

When we made the hotel reservation, there was a free cancellation option, but shortly after we wanted to cancel, we were asked to pay a fee. Despite reserving two beds in the female dormitory beforehand, when we arrived, we were directed to the male dormitory. In this situation, they asked us to pay a certain amount extra and directed us to a private room. As it was the last stop of our trip to Beijing, we had limited money on us and since it was the weekend, we couldn't exchange money at the bank. We were in a very difficult situation.

It’s near the train station

The beds have the thinnest padding I’ve ever seen. Felt closer to sleeping on a plank of wood than a bed. Kinda reminded me of jail. My friend also got bed bugs from the beds

The location itself is good, but it is very difficult to find with Amap or Apple Maps. You can wash and dry laundry.

The bed was too hard. It wasn't clean at the beginning in the toilets, but that was more due to the guests; later, I could see that it was cleaned regularly. The bed linen was torn. The hairdryers overheat very quickly, are actually broken, and need to be replaced.
