In Yiran area, so far pleasant experiences at hotels such as Royal Chiao Hsi and MU JIAO XI HOTEL.
This is the first time I’m staying here through a friends’ super HIGH recommendation for the Westin, but the photos are definitely a lot nicer than what you see in person. I realized I’m never trusting that friend’s recommendation again haha.
We stayed one night in the deluxe room on the top floor.
Pros: good service, 3rd floor rooms have high ceilings, comfortable bed.
Cons: 1. the onsen tub is definitely a LOT smaller than expected (it can’t fit two people unless you like being a squatting loner in the tub). 2. Scenery is a parking lot. Would recommend guest to ask for the pond or the “tree” view. 3. What bothered me the MOST. the drainage smelled really bad. I felt bad because I thought it was my partner after using the toilet, but it was in fact sewage smell coming out of the pipe next to the toilet, we told the hotel staff but they just apologized and didn’t really comp us with anything, but it’s not their fault since we told them after we checked out and confirmed it was facility issue.
Still though, no matter how friendly the staffs were, they could have made a gesture since we did bare with the smell ALL night. Not to mention our friends staying in the suite a few rooms over had a broken tv (that’s a different story). Overall, it was a pretty disappointing try-out.
