Came on a college trip. Had a twin room which was very clean, decent size, with sitting area and large windows which was lovely. Food in the restaurant in the evenings was good. Breakfast had a variety of Eastern/Western food so you could pick and choose what you fancy - would recommend steamed bun surprise in the far corner. Staff were nice and was pretty local. There are 2 7/11s nearby and a lot of other independents if you want to buy any food/supplies. The beds were pretty hard but they weren't uncomfortable, once you're lying down you don't notice.

“Big rooms”

The room was very big. We had a room for 3 persons and it is so far the biggest I have ever had. Yet, the hotel is a big old and that you see in the furniture and decoration.

The room was very big. We had a room for 3 persons and it is so far the biggest I have ever had. Yet, the hotel is a big old and that you see in the furniture and decoration. The room was clean and with the needed amenities. The hotel location is a bit far from the touristic attractions. You need metro (5-minute walk away from Agricultural Exhibition Center Station (Line 10), car or taxi. Taxi pretty economical so location it is not a big problem. We have dinner at the hotel and it was very nice, delicious food for affordable prices. Good service. You can also have very simple local eateries just across the road. They can speak a little English at front desk. No maps available.

As a professor of Chinese studies, I take a group of students to China every summer. This year we stayed at the Young An Hotel which is located not too far from the Beijing Capital Airport in a very untouristy residential neighborhood. The location is a bit off the beaten track but if you enjoy residential neighborhood with lots of small places to eat although this means few menus are in English, it's great. The prices are very cheap and there are very few rip offs, unlike some places more centrally located. Unfortunately we had a couple problems with the hotel which really left a bad impression. First, someone tried to break into my student's suitcase which was obvious because the lock was broken (but not opened) when she returned to her room and she had noticed that the zipper on the suitcase was on a different side then she had left it the day before. The hotel did not take this seriously and in fact tried to imply that it was something that might've happened to the lock before we had arrived. (The lock was brand-new--I gave it to her myself.) also the first night we had drinks in the beer garden, they were very reasonably priced but when my students went back a second time, they were given menus all in English with much higher prices. It was a shame because the hotel breakfast and facilities were fairly nice but I would not stay there again.
