Upon arriving at the hotel, I noticed a slight cigarette smell in the rooms, especially on the renovated floors. The location was pretty good, offering easy access to bars, restaurants, and key attractions around Jingan Temple. The dining experience was average with repetitive menu options, but the view was amazing. The service was friendly, although there was a lack of attention to pedestrian safety. The facilities were decent but could use some improvements.

The hotel is conveniently located at the junction of Jing'an and the French Connection, offering a mix of Chinese and Western foods. The rooms are lovely and clean, with convenient features like a night light and charging panel, but they can feel a bit cramped for two people. The service was friendly and helpful, although noise levels could be better managed. The dining options were varied, but those with specific dietary requirements may find options limited. The hotel's biggest advantage is its location, close to Jing'an Temple and subway, making it very convenient despite being slightly outside the city center.
