"Let's start with the pros, then the cons.
**Pros:** The view from the window is incredibly clear, making the city views very pleasant. The bathroom has a rain shower. Both the bathroom and bedding were spotlessly clean, and the quality of the toiletries provided was excellent. The hotel itself is relatively new. Both the front desk and housekeeping staff were very friendly and helpful. The bedside outlets are compatible with mainland China plugs, so no adapter is needed, and the room even provides a 3-in-1 charging cable.
**Location:** The location is excellent, situated close to the old and new Grand Lisboa and Wynn (the original Wynn, not Wynn Palace). However, because the roads are wide, even though everything is on the same roundabout, it still takes about ten minutes to walk across a few streets. Families with elderly members might want to keep this in mind. If you're looking for easy access to food, it's probably better to book a hotel near Senado Square; there are several good options there. If you're not planning on hitting the casinos, a city view room offers great views of these iconic buildings. Also, just across the road is a large bus hub (as shown in the picture), which is a huge plus as you can basically get anywhere in Macau from there. The hotel offers shuttle buses to other hotels and major border gates, and taxis are easy to find. Personally, I think staying in the old district is more convenient than Taipa for city walks; within 1-4 km, you can explore many historical sites, small shops, and local eateries. Macau is small, so taxis are convenient everywhere. The starting fare is MOP 25, and from Qingmao Port to here, it was MOP 76.
**Floors:** The front desk is on the basement level (B1), so there's a distinction between the 'Hotel Lobby' (L floor) and the 'Entrance Lobby' (G floor). Taxis and food deliveries drop off at the Entrance Lobby (G floor).
**Price:** For reference, I stayed in April on a weekday, in a city view fountain room, and it cost between RMB 600-700 including tax.
**Cons:** The room didn't have a 'do not disturb' sign or light. When I smelled smoke, both the front desk and housekeeping phones went unanswered. The wardrobe doors were covered in grease stains and fingerprints from previous guests; housekeeping might only do basic cleaning and overlooked these 'public' areas of the cabinet. The soundproofing is indeed very poor. If anyone walks by in the corridor or talks at a normal volume, it sounds very loud in the room. When housekeeping cleans the rooms upstairs or on either side, and their mops hit the walls, it causes serious disturbance in the room (as shown in the video recording), making it feel like the walls are hollow. Ironically, the glass windows are well soundproofed; despite the busy roundabout downstairs with constant traffic, I couldn't hear any outside noise. A major negative point is that the hotel doesn't manage its non-smoking policy effectively. The elevators smelled like a KTV lounge, and the corridors had a pervasive smoky carpet smell. Passing by one room, three men walked out, and the smell of smoke from inside was nauseating. The 11th floor is supposed to be non-smoking, but I frequently smelled smoke in the corridor, and once, the smoke smell from the corridor directly entered my room. I opened my door to complain to the staff but noticed that even though staff members were present, they seemed to ignore the situation. Later, I complained to the duty manager in the lobby, who was also quite helpless, stating it was an issue of guest etiquette, and they could only check for smoke smell upon checkout and fine the departed guests if found. This doesn't solve the problem at all, leaving non-smoking, rule-abiding guests like us as the victims. When I went to the front desk for an inquiry, I saw a male staff member there who was very perfunctory when another guest approached with a question, not even looking up, which was very rude, almost like a roadside shop assistant dealing with someone asking for directions. Overall, despite claiming to be a five-star hotel, the management seems quite disorganized."
