Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Not central for sightseeing — Some guests note the hotel is a fair distance from the city center, so it's less ideal for leisure travelers.
- Breakfast is Chinese-focused — The buffet skews toward Chinese options, which may not suit all international palates.
- Best for fair visitors — If you're not in town for an exhibition, the location offers little beyond convenience to transit and the fairgrounds.
- Mixed reviews on location — While some found it close to transport, others felt it was a long way from key attractions.
