We were completely fooled by the pictueres and info on the website. Sure thing, the hotel WAS very nice to look at. But really not nice living in...
First we got a room with a worthless AC and a refrigerator that did not work. We complained about this and first the staff said it was supposed to be like that. That the refrigerator should just look like one but not be used like one. Yeah.... So we talked to another staffmember in the evening and told him about our problems, because our room was way to hot, sweating like animals.... And he took us seriously and made it possible for us to change room, but he did not mention that WE HAD TO PAY for that change... And I still dont understand why we had to pay.... And "surprisingly" BOTH the AC and the refrigerator worked, but instead we got huge leaks in our bathroom everytime after taking a shower... One morning we ordered roomservice and wanted breakfast in the morning, but no one came... And our biggest complaint is about their nonexisting WIFI, its told in the website AND their own website that all room should have FREE WIFI. but we were told that the room only provided cable internet...
So actually, I would NEVER recommend this hotel to anyone. I would even prefer a small hostel before this.
Room Tip: Dont bother visit this hotel, you will only get disappointed. Before this hotel, we stayed at a host...

Dear Miaoo,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.
I am truly sorry to read that you were disapointed with our services. I would like to apologize, on behalf of Pullman Beijing South Management and ACCOR.
I have looked into your stay record and I would like to answer to your comments.
Firslty, I know that the A/C has been an issue over the summer. This was due to a harware issue and will be fixed through renovations by next summer. As far as the frige is concerned, this was obviously a miscommunication issue for which we are totally responsible, but our fridges are obviously supposed to be cold.
The reason why you had to pay for the room change is because you upgrated your room type, and the reason why you upgraded is because there were not other standard rooms left on the night. However, since it was our fault that you had to change to another room, the updrade should have indeed been free of charge, which is what we usually do and we have taken measures to make sure it does not happen again. I would be more than happy to rebate you the extra cost next time you visit Beijing.
The leaks in the bathroom has also been fixed. I have also checked in our system what happened to your in-room breakfast. I found out that your order was never recorded, for which I am really sorry. I can assure you that we do provide room service in a timely manner though.
As far as the internet is concerned, I am afraid there had been a miscommunication issue on your side. Our website does not say that there is Free Wifi in all rooms, it says that there is free broadband internet in all rooms, which is the case, and that the Wifi is available on a paying basis. However, we do provide Free Wifi in the public areas such as the restaurants, the lobby and the bar.
I would like to thank you once again for taking the tame to contact us. Your feedback is of great help for us.
Best Regards
