We checked in around 3am in the morning. The host sent us detailed instructions how to check-in a couple days before, which were pretty accurate. But when we entered the room, the place was not cleaned from the use of the previous guests. I'll skip the messy details but imagine how pissed we were being tired from the flight. We tried contacting the host in every way possible but it's middle of the night so we didnt expect any reply either. The host responded around 9am and thats how we learned that there had been miscommunication with the cleaning company. We understand that things happen unexpectedly sometimes but it could've been easily avoided if only the host checked w/ the cleaning company or the room itself before we were expexted to arrive. I hope no future guests will ever experience what we did that night. I can say they addressed the issue promptly though. Special shout out to the person who cleaned our room for honestly safe-keeping and returning my friend's necklace!
On the brighter side, we have moved on and enjoyed our stay overall. The place was actually safe, nice and comfy. It has well-functioning AC and hot/cold showers. There are extra extension wires too so we have more than enough sockets for all our gadgets. And prolly the best part was the free pocket wifi which was very convenient for us!! It's walking distance from food places and shopping stores. Ximen Station is also very near the area. Definitely recommended.
