I had a pretty good stay at this hotel! The location is fantastic, right by Pingjiang Street, which is filled with shops and street food. The rooms were elegant and clean, but they felt a bit outdated. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making the experience enjoyable. However, the dining options weren't great, and I found some food to be on the expensive side without much variety. Overall, it was a nice place but there's room for improvement in a few areas.

I recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be a mixed experience. On the plus side, the location is fantastic, just a short walk to charming canals and delightful eateries. The rooms were decent overall, but they could use some better ventilation. Unfortunately, the service was lacking, as I faced issues with billing and requests being ignored. Dining options were limited and did not meet expectations, which was disappointing.

My stay was quite a mixed bag. The location is fantastic, just a short walk to some beautiful gardens and scenic canals. However, the room was not a pleasant experience as it had an overwhelming smell. On the positive side, the staff was friendly and attentive, which made up for some of the shortcomings. While it's not the worst place, I’d say it’s more of a budget option than a luxurious stay.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel, especially because the location is fantastic—right in the heart of Suzhou's historic district and close to beautiful gardens and the canal-side street. The rooms were very modern and beautiful, with the best bed I had during my trip, but I felt it was more of a 3.5-star experience overall. The service was a bit of a mixed bag; some staff were friendly and attentive, while others didn’t seem quite as pleasant.
