“Ouwig tower”

Hotel was voornamelijk ok, spreken de personeel sprak niet bijna elke Engels. Bijvoorbeeld was postacard volstrekt onbekend. Als u wilt gebruiken keukengerei Europese bij het ontbijt, je breng beter ze met u. Ramen had niet gewassen al eeuwen. Lobby bar niet hadden geen westerse alcohls beschikbaar. Alleen die verschrikkelijke Chinees moonshine wodka en Chinese wijn dat azijn geproefd. Nierstuk bier was het enige wat te drinken. Goed, de kamers waren schoon.

“Older property, lazy staff, English challenged”

The bellman did not greet our taxi and in factseemed to hide in a corner throughout the checking process. He never offered to help (he probably saw our large and heavy suitcases.)

The bellman did not greet our taxi and in factseemed to hide in a corner throughout the checking process. He never offered to help (he probably saw our large and heavy suitcases.) The staff means well, but speaks limited English. The property is older and needs some attention. The lobby area has peeling paint and exposed wiring visible behind the check-in counter. Light bulbs were burned out. It just has that overall feel of having seen better days and of an absentee manager.

“Good clean hotel with ok buffet bfast...”

Clean rooms , same hard chinese bed as the case in most 3-4* hotels in china. If you like soft bed, then you would have to stay at 5* hotels to get one.

Clean rooms , same hard chinese bed as the case in most 3-4* hotels in china. If you like soft bed, then you would have to stay at 5* hotels to get one. It takes awhile for the AC to work and they do not seem to have a real AC, coz the AC is not as cold and seems they're just drawing in the spring cold air from outside. So, I cannot imagine how hot the room might be during the summer in this case (just a thought) Bfast is good. The cookies are the best. At the time we were staying there, there was also another group of american youths there so not sure if their bfast choices preparations were influenced by this large group of american tourists. The hotel is near some local chinese eatery and shops. One of the bellboy staff was kind enough to accompany us to a local chinese eatery late one evening as had a couple of guests who wanted to try out local chinese beer and pulutan (snack foods for beer). It was just a 2 min walk behind the hotel, 1st right corner when you come out of hotel and on the left side of the street, after 2min walk you will see a local chinese eatery with barbecue stall. The hotel staff was kind enough to stay with us for awhile to help us order the beer and some pulutan. Try the RMB 9 beer instead of the RMB 12 Tsintao beer. It taste same and cheaper. Their pulutans (chicken / beef/ goat meat) are good and cheap RMB5 for 10 sticks which is their minimum per order per kind. But be warn, their pulutans are real spicy, so if you are not a hot spicy eater then avoid this. Not sure they serve pulutans that are not spicy bec. we did ask to be serve not spicy but still the servings came out spicy. And you also have to specify that you want COLD BEER, or they will just give you a bottle of beer right out of the box. The hotel is 20-30minutes walk to the drum tower area. So if you're not up to walking, you can take the taxi.
