Wonderful place to stay in Beijing! Its clean, the beds are great and it has a nice courtyard and rooftop to chill on. Staff was wonderful and although its a bit of a walk from the subway, the location is very good. Nice and quiet. Chairs and seating in the courtyard were not comfortable, so that wasnt really nice way to chill after a long day. Luckily the rooftop was very relaxing
