Check in was seamless. The front desk and breakfast are on one floor and all the rooms are on the floor directly above. The room itself was well lit, clean and the bed large and comfortable. The bathroom featured a bidet, body wash, shampoo, kettle, mini fridge and hair dryer. You can ask the front desk for a better hair dryer—first come first serve. This floor also has two washer/dryers for use.
The pc set up is defaulted Chinese, but there's a boot option for English. The English boot option has almost no games; you can download/install yourself but the drive is already jam full. Installing Dota 2 left me just 2MB left on my pc.

Pricing-wise, if done online, it is not a bad deal and it is certainly a...

The hotel is conveniently located within walking distance (about 1 km) to both Zhongli night market and the Huanbei train station, which offers a direct connection to the airport without any transfers. Although the room was small, it was sufficient for my needs.
One unique feature was the inclusion of two gaming computers in the room, as well as plenty more in the hotel lobby. This would be a gamer's heaven, although I'm not particularly interested in computer games, so I cannot comment on the quality of the computers. I had a comfortable night's sleep. Additionally, I appreciated the morning wake-up call 15 minutes before my...
