Disappointed to find that there was no shuttle service to & from the airport (the reason I chose the hotel). Per claim in Expedia there was supposed to be a shuttle service; instead had to get a taxi. Another dissappointment was that the lobby was humid; this was true for most of the property.The male staff in the lobby was not as efficient as the female staff in terms of accomodating, friendliness, efficiency and attitude. Only two observations worthy of mention is the service of Li Hongying in the dining area. She greeted guests as they enter, asked what was needed, made suggestions, converse with guests to make them feel welcomed and other things that house host would normally do for guests. Then there was the cleaning lady (that I did not get the name) on the eight floor. She was superb: very gentle, respectful, efficient in keeping rooms very clean; quietly going about her tasks in humble mannerism. One is struck that without her the hotel would be dilapitated in quick fashion.

朋友送我們粽子，餐廳的李紅英服務員特別親切的協助我們加熱，讓我們吃的非常舒心，服務很周到。 海景房特別棒！下午晚上的景色太美了。 距離機場只要15-18分鐘，對於早上8點要飛的我們，還有機會吃上早餐，感覺特別好。 順帶一提，早餐的Buffet不鹹不膩，很好吃。
房間內技術不佳的拍攝。
