Guangzhou Hongcheng Hotel

Decent location and the room rate was one of the cheapest for a hotel in the area.

When trying to change rooms (due to the strong smell of smoke in the room we were in) the lady on the front desk was very rude and dismissive. She went as far as to outright lie that there were no other rooms available, before eventually conceding that there were and moving us. She also said nobody could possibly smoke in the rooms, despite the fact that ashtrays were present. All-in-all a stressful and pointless 20 minute argument took place which soured the taste of our stay. It was also quite noisy in our room owing to some sort of heating/cooling system that whirred throughout the night. The room was also very small. We wouldn't recommend staying here, despite the affordable rate.
