It's like visiting an old friend. The purpose of staying is really to see if anything has changed after my last stay five years ago. Fortunately, this hotel is just as I remember it , which is great. Every cab driver knows this hotel which is part of the reasons why I put up here. Don't get me wrong, this is no 5 star, or even international 4 star hotel and there are certainly a lot of much more upmarket hotels in Shenzhen but if you want to experience a Chinese-take on Western Style accommodation, then it's a great choice. Hotels.com seems to have great deals on this hotel. I got a Executive room with breakfast for a US$70/night. Service was efficient, e.g. Wifi signals was weak in my room and they kindly set up a modem via the in room ethernet for my room. Can't complain. For a forty-plus year old property in a city where 5 -year- old buildings are considered old school, it's doing great!
