Review for: High-end four-diamond hotel

The tour guide and driver were both great during the trip. The only downside was the hotel location. "Zhongkang Songyang" is too far from the subway station, making it inconvenient to visit night markets. Because I didn't have a domestic phone, I couldn't call a ride-hailing service. I inquired about the accommodation multiple times before departure, but received no answers, and didn't have time to apply for a phone number. This was the worst aspect. Accommodation choice: Zhongkang Songyang - very far from the subway station.
