I booked this room only because it was by the airport express line and stayed for 1 night prior to leaving Beijing. The hotel itself is very good for a somewhat chinese-able guest as they are somewhat limited in dealing with foreign English speakers (my spouse). The beds are typical chinese, they would be considered hard as rocks to non-asians - so you are forewarned. I would compare it to sleeping on the box spring bottom part alone. The best part about this hotel is the location - it is within walking distance to the subway but I would not deal with the airport express if I had to again or advise anyone else to. The access to it is by separate entry and you need to go through the underpass and manystairs are involved and with luggage it is painful. There is no entry from the subway entrance. However if you are sightseeing in Beijing this hotel would be a good option - my opinion, close to transportation. Cabs readily available at the door. Rooms are fairly large and clean. I had requested a quiet room and was on the 5th floor in non-smoking. If you like and can deal with firmer beds this is the place!
