We booked this hotel because my girlfriend wanted to shop at Ai Yi Fu, and being right next to the mall made it super convenient. The room was clean, comfortable, and staff were friendly and helpful. The location is ideal if your main focus is shopping or staying close to the mall. However, if you're planning to visit places like Beijing Road Pedestrian Street or Chen Clan Ancestral Hall, expect about a 1-hour drive—so it's not ideal for exploring the city center. Airport transfers take around 40 to 60 minutes depending on traffic, which is average. Overall, I’d recommend this hotel if you’re mainly here for shopping or want a quiet base near the mall. It’s not perfect for tourists wanting to be in the heart of the action, but for what it offers, it delivers solid value.
