Footloose YB

The location is about 400m from Qingniandajie metro station. From this station, one metro line goes directly to Shenyang Railway Station, another metro line goes directly to the airport. While there are convenience stores and cafes in the vicinity, there aren't any restaurants except a handful in the not-well-patronised shopping mall about 500m away, close to the metro station. The hotel is on a quiet side street, so very little traffic noise.
Check-in was efficient. The room was of a reasonable size with good lighting, several power points and a comfortable bed. There was also a mini fridge, but no desk. There was a sort of coffee table, but it was a bit too low to use as a desk and it was also shaky. The air conditioner needed maintenance, unable to deliver the cooling power expected of it. Fortunately, the daily temperatures were lovely, and I preferred to keep the window open.
The bathroom was of a reasonable size too. The toilet is the japanese type with a bidet function, controlled by a remote control device. Hot water came through quite quickly, water pressure was good and drainage good.
Almost all items at breakfast were Chinese dishes, though there was some sliced bread, butter and jam. Salad was available as was a small selection of fruits and cream cakes. There was yogurt. No ham, no cheese, no bacon. Fried eggs available, but not made to order. However, the Chinese dishes were good and changed daily; frankly there was no need to rely on western dishes.
