Ji Hotel (Guangzhou Ximengkou)

Pretty happy with the room provided, centrally located to some destinations by foot and short distance to catch a DiDi if needed. Rooms are not individually air conditioned so you have a choice of cool or warm airconditioned rooms. I picked the cool one which was a little chilly for Guangzhou weather in January. Warm rooms were noted to be a bit stuffy but there are windows that can be opened for fresh air. Overall happy with this hotel, staff are all lovely and helpful. Would have extended my stay if I were in the city a bit longer

Spent over a week here. Location is decent, not too far from the metro station and within walking distances to many restaurants. Free self serve laundry that’s open 24 hours a day. Their machines say they automatically add soap but they offer soap so I’m not totally sure what the deal is with that. I did see someone adding the offered soap directly to the drum so after that, I did too just in case.  Their housekeeping is a bit hit or miss. They offered a ton of water bottles everyday, but during our 8 night stay, they made up the beds only once during that time. Found some staining or mold in the shower stall the first night so cleanliness might not be a big priority. That and hair was left on the floor so they aren’t vacuuming every day either. Bonus is that their housekeeper spoke Cantonese at least and did scrub the shower stall after we made the issue known to her.  Overall, not a bad place to stay for a longer period if those above issues aren’t dealbreakers.
