Encontre hotéis 2-Star em Xining

Clean n newly renovated hotel. Check-in was fast n checkout at 2pm. Use translator to communicate. Free additional drinking water available at the reception. The manager and staff were very friendly. House keeping staff were very polite and even update us on the weather conditions outside. Even though we didn't know Chinese, sign language was good enough. Daily cleaning with a change of soft fluffy white towel. Complete daily supply of toilet accessories. Change of linens. Shower with good water pressure. WC with auto flushing. We got a room near the free laundry facility with detergent and softener. Walking distance to the market and Dongguan Mosque.

那天坐火車晚上九點多才到的西寧，入住時已經十點了。因為帶的有孩子，前台的小姐姐很貼心的安排了靠邊、安靜的一間房。房間比想象中的大，很乾凈，窗外的風景也不錯，最主要的是有凈水機，少了專門要去買礦泉水的煩惱。唯一美中不足的就是吹風機吹出的風實在是太小了，吹個頭發得花很長時間。

Starting with the positives. The construction and decor was great. Showering space was also nice and new. Staff were also helpful and nice. Amenities are ok. Everything you would expect for washing up. But no AC for many rooms without windows is a travesty. Only a electric fan that can only blow for 1 hour at a time. Easy to get asphyxiated at night. Horrible stench of body odor and cigarette smoke was present when I entered my room. Hygiene seemed alright until I showered. And with a small waft of the towels a terrible stench of cigarette odor pierced my nostrils.. Expecting guests to wipe off with this odorous smell is disappointing. Water also leaks from the shower compartment into the toilet floor.

Nice room with view from neighborhood. It's 30min walk from downtown but there are plenty of restaurants and markets nearby. I was the only guest during the 4 nights I was there, so not much of an atmosphere despite the nice social areas. The heating system (underfloor) works only in the night so it's a bit chill during the day. There are hot showers and possibly of doing laundry (10yuan a load).

Sheng 45 Is located a 25 minute walk from city attractions and a 15+ minute taxi ride to the train and bus stations. Around 8am and 5pm, traffic is terrible because of parents picking up their kids at the nearby school. The Good The best part was the social experience. A couple volunteers were very friendly. They played games and watched movies with us in the communal area on the ground floor. It is a great place to meet people. The Bad While the dorm bed and room were comfortable, there were significant issues elsewhere. The door to the room made loud noises whenever entering and exiting that disturbed sleep. Someone kept the door to the roof outside open, permitting the toxic stench from the nearby auto shop inside as well as street noise and humidity. There was only one functioning squat toilet on the third floor in a dirty bathroom with little privacy—one of the doors wouldn’t close.

The hotel is conveniently located. The staff were very helpful and patient with me when I encountered problems with my wifi. The rooms were clean and considering the price I paid, the hotel is good enough. If I ever return to Xining, I will stay there again.

We found the hotel easily. The lobby seems to be shared with another hotel. Check-in was possible even late at night. The reception staff upgraded us into a room with a window which was nice. The room in itself is small but functional. The bed is small but comfy. The TV worked well. There's a laundry room that you can use for free but the dryer mode doesn't work. The amenities are outdated and cleanliness is really not what you would expect. Our toilet seat was broken, the sink was dirty (we removed some stains with just water and toilet paper) and it was leaking. The walls have some very nasty stains on it and there's dust and stains on many things inside the room (bedside tables, fan, wardrobe, bedside lights, etc). One very annoying thing is that when you don't close your door properly, there's a loud alarm that quickly starts ringing. Unfortunately, when it's breakfast time, many people don't care and will leave that to ring until they come back, and it's very annoying. Breakfast is Chinese food only and not that great. Plus it is served in a very small room where there's definitely not enough space for everybody so you might have to wait. On the second day, housekeeping took our bath mat and didn't replace it, so we had to use another towel. On the third day, despite putting the ”do not disturb sign” on the door, housekeeping knocked several times until told that we didn't need anything. I mean it's nice of them, but the point of having the sign is not to be disturbed. Depending on when you take your shower, the water can be a bit dodgy (fine at night, but in the morning, it goes from burning to barely hot to burning again which can be annoying). The layout of the bathroom is weird as well as the toilet protrudes in the middle of the bathroom making it complicated to move around, exit the shower or even use the sink (especially since ours was leaking all over). Shower glass doors also don't close properly so lots of water is coming out. Our laundry string was broken so we had to find another way to dry our laundry. I think it's important to note as well that as foreigners, we have been followed to our door by some other guests, and were stared at by others until we entered our room and closed the door which didn't feel safe for my girlfriend. All in all, if you don't care about cleanliness, then it's ok as it's well located.

家人們，誰懂啊？這次入住的金鑫賓館的單人間居然配有1.8米的大床，簡直不要太香…… 房間是乾淨整潔，裝修風格簡約時尚，應該是新裝修的賓館，床品柔軟舒適，一覺睡到天亮。衞生間乾濕分離，洗漱用品品質也不錯。 這次入住最驚艷的是不僅配備了齊全的一次性用品，而且品質遠超預期，用的很放心～ 而且賓館位置也是相當哇塞，賓館50米就是大新街夜市，據説是西寧最大也是時間最長的夜市，吃的基本不踩雷… 還有對面就是莫家街，簡直不要太方便…

The hotel is located right above a night market, very convenient. The room was spacious. But other than these two things, I have very little good things to say. They never once made our beds, only took out the garbage and gave us bottled water each day. They also give the smallest rolls of toilet paper that looks like it’s a left over roll (but it’s actually how they make it there). The shower did not have any antislipping or safety handles on the wall, so one of us fell in the shower because the entire bathroom gets wet when you shower. The TV was not working either but we don’t really want to watch anything so we didn’t bother with fixing it. I would not stay here again.

We had booked two rooms. Should have checked prior but turns out this building doesn't have a lift. Makes it tiresome to climb 5 levels up. But great commendation to the staffs. They were extremely helpful and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. Unfortunately the building is outdated and likely needs to be refurbished. Location works well for us as it is near to food and shopping.
