LLondonChrisTen minutes' walk to the northwest is a pleasant park. I was struck by the park's fragrance and elevated views.
As for my room facing east on the fifth floor, it was fine, except for the building across the road. Not only did it fracture the view of the mountains, but it flooded the room at night with yellow light, such that I had to have the curtains drawn (I normally leave them open, as I like to be awaken by the dawning light). Problem with this was they could not be pulled, but had to be closed by electricity. I had to say ”小度小度!请你把窗帘关起来。” to make this happen.
LLondonChrisRoom 501 on the fifth floor got the morning sun, but unlike its alleged twin on the third floor, was uncarpeted. However third floor rooms on the hotel's eastern side would not get so much morning sun due to buildings casting shadow.
Breakfast was poor - no fruit, and only three boiled eggs left when I arrived with twenty minutes to spare. Quite a good place, but I only stayed there as the room I wanted at the hotel I'd stayed in before in Yunxian was unavailable.
