Ming Courtyard

Bins are really tiny &small!! They were always overloaded

Friendly staff, the room have a good ventilation and it's confortable

The toilets were not very clean. Otherwise nothing to complain about

The bed was clean and soft. The staff work fast, but not that friendly as reviews suggest. But it was ok, since I was there only for night. The location was very nice, just 5 min walking from subway station Beixinqiao, Exit C. And the inner yard is super cute.

There is only one bathroom for both men and women. It is very uncomfortable, especially in the morning. I hope they will divide them by gender. The internet is very slow, sometimes it doesn't work (usually in the morning).

Clean

Beds too hard. Mosquitoes.

Decent location (in terms of proximity to the subway, see below for actual hotel location), bed was clean and comfortable, check-in and check-out was smooth. Value was the price was pretty good, and I'd recommend this place if you want a no-frills place to sleep in a central location.

A few things: (1) Location is down a dark alley that cars can't drive through, so if, like me, you're a solo female traveler, it feels a little bit sketchy to walk to the hotel at nighttime. But not a big deal. (2) The bathroom and shower room are shared, and when I was there, there was a big group of men showering and brushing their teeth (all shirtless) so I felt too awkward to try to shower. (3) Walls are paper thin. Woke up to the aforementioned group of men talking because the bathroom was right across from my room. (4) MOST IMPORTANTLY: I asked the front desk some questions related to my visa-free stay in China, as only certain hotels are willing to host visa-exempt travelers because of the extra paperwork with registering guests with the local police department. I emailed the property twice before arriving in China to make sure it was okay, and they told me repeatedly that it was fine. When I mentioned this to the person at the front desk, he said he had no idea what I was talking about and told me to ask a different hotel. And when I asked some other questions (the location of the closest police station, etc) he dismissed me and told me to ask other hotels because he didn't know. Poor customer service, and now I might be blacklisted from entering China again because my stay was not recorded officially by Ming Courtyard. (5) Wi-fi didn't work. And no breakfast (But you probably already knew these things from the other reviews)
