I stayed for two weeks during the Canton Fair.
I appreciate the location and had all of my basic needs filled by Link Mall/Plaza just a short walk away.
Negative:
The bed was so hard, that is not 5 star. After 4 nights and the amount of walking at the Fair, I requested a change of room or other resolution. It turned out there are a limited number of matress toppers that I was lucky enough to get one, eventually. Previous to getting one, my whole body ached and I am not a sore back type of person normally.
If you turn on your DO NOT DISTURB light, it doesn’t matter. You will still get your room cleaned, people knocking for ? And this one time, I came back from the fair early to a woman inspecting my room with the door wide open. Just to be clear, I only engaged my DND light approx every second day as I didn’t need cleaning that often. It didn’t seem to matter.
I did however really appreciate my cleaning lady after getting used to everything but how was I to guess that? I would have liked my privacy respected more
Expedia described the Banana Leaf restaurant as Chinese Cuisine. It is Thai and I wish I had known the correct cuisine as that would have been ideal for my preferences.
I have to give credit for cleanliness, overall safety, location, and the proximity of Link mall filled in so many needs for a single female traveller attending the Fair.
