Good, convenient location:
- within 5-8 mins walk to ErJi subway station (Line1),
which is just 6 stops from Kunming Railway Station.
- hotel occupies the top few floors of an office tower building which is part of the Dadu Motian office-cum-shopping mall. Ie. I could leave my room, head downstairs, walk into the mall, take the elevator up to the cinema on the 6th floor of the mall, and be seated and watching a movie in the cinema within 5 mins (provided you don't get lost inside the mall searching for the cinema, as happened to me during my first few times roaming inside the mall).
- a 24hr food street, popular with the locals, is a short 3 mins walk from the mall.
- The HUGE GR Shopping Mall complex is also within 15 walks distance.
Room was advertised as "without air-conditioning"... yet I booked it, as I was curious and wanted to experience the effect of Kunming's reputed "Perpetual Spring" climate in a room without aircon.
Room is spacious and has everything expected, except: I can't get any live CCTV news. .. apparently only prerecorded cable news from CCTV2, 3, 5, 6 & 7. Totally NO CCTV1 news, even pre-recorded ones!
The elevator reach upto level 15, and my room is located on level 16 (where morning breakfast is served), so I need to climb up/down one level via the staircase.
The included breakfast is very typical, local Chinese noodle plus various condiments ... and is only available between 7-9 am.
As my departure flight is late at night, I was able to do late checkout for a few hours at ¥20 per hour. 👍🙂
