“Location is very convenient as walking distance to the fabric markets, with many markets close by. Firstly, when I arrived the hotel would not let me check in as it said I hadn't paid for more than one night even though I had through booking.com, delaying my check in by 2 hours and a costly phone bill having to contact booking.com hotline. Turned out it was an issue with the hotels booking system. I paid for breakfast through booking.com and they said I didn't but gave it to me in the end as I paid 'too much' on booking.com for room. Breakfast was really average anyway with cooked food sitting it open bowls to go cold. Minus the admin issues which aren't super uncommon when staying in China (and not speaking the language), the room wasn't the cleanest. It is an older hotel, so bathroom had some moult in grout but things like the towels weren't very soft/new and bedding had marks on it. There was a massage chair in the room that you had to pay to use which seemed like a waste of time. Bed was very hard. Wifi was slow and disconnected often. I was unable to use it to do work as so slow. Overall, if you want convenience of walking to fabric markets, stay here, but I would recommend staying somewhere nicer and just taking a taxi to the markets. This is what I will be doing next time. Guangzhou isn't a huge city like others in China so you could stay somewhere nicer and take a 15-20 minute taxi instead of a 10-15 minute walk to the main market.”
