Dalian is a nice city, with clean air (a plus if you are coming from Beijing!). The hotel has seen better days. The infrastructure is nice (and so is the food in the "Western Restaurant", even if a bit repetitive), but is not properly taken care of. There were plenty of dust bunnies all over my room (behind the bed, behind furniture), the carpets looked worn out and there were plenty of moldy patches in the toilet. Also: it seems they do not know how to clean glasses: the windows were almost opaque. Also, the reception personnel is incredibly incompetent: they were even unable to point where the hotel was in a local map.
