Liuyuan Hotel

Located within a short walk from Southeastern University, the Liu Yuan hotel is well equipped, adequately (albeit a bit dated) furnished, and located just off a relatively quiet street. My room included a sitting area with a couch, television, and desk, along with a queen-sized comfortable bed. Having a room on the 10th floor, though, somewhat compromised the water pressure in the shower. But, considering that Nanjing has a population somewhere near 6 million people, all of whom are also using the city water supply, the low pressure was understandable. The only amenities that I found to be less than adequate were (1) the wattage of the lights in the lamps, leaving the room quite dark and difficult to read, and (2) an air conditioning system that had a bit of a time attempting to keep the room cool when outside temperatures reached 38 C. Otherwise, the hotel is cleaned well, the staff friendly and helpful, and the location convenient.
