I chose this hotel off Trip Adviser when our host factory originally booked us into the Crown resport. However, I dread holiday resorts that are far out of town I wanted something that convenient For the shops and just walking around when not at work, and this proved ideal. We got room s on the 4th level, with balconeys, facing a courtyard, not much of a view but the other rooms facing the streets apparently were really noisy so this was OK. For the shops and just walking around when not at work, and this proved ideal. Rooms are large wth TV but no English channels, not even the CCTV English news, bathroom had no tub but 2 great shower heads and lots of hot water. Staff did not generally speak English but at least 2 guys on the front desk had excellent English. There is a flat screen PC in room with a decent office area for work and report writing but forget the internet, it is slow and dreadfull. We had Wifi at work so didn抰 really bother, especially as the hotel PC was set up in Chinese and it was difficult to work out the commands. Breakfast was mix of US (but no cereals or black coffee) and Chinese, with 3 types of meals cooked to order: the typical omelettes and eggs, then noodles with egg, then something else. There were also hot dishes (about 8 or so) and a range of breads and cakes, and fresh fruit. No black coffee was solved by walking 10 mins to a local Carrefour and getting a coffee mug for a $1, and ground coffee from the large range there. Problem solved. Conclusion: I prefer to stay at this sort of hotel then in say Sheraton, there is 5x value for money and you get a sense of Chinese business hotel which is OK
