I took a bus from Beijing Capital Airport to the Tongsha Bus Terminal on the north side of Tianjin East Railway Station (2.5 hours, 100 RMB).
The hotel is on the south side of the station. On Baidu Maps, it looks like you have to take a huge detour to travel between the north and south of the station, but in reality you can go underground through the station. When I emerged on the south side, I was confused because the station square seemed to be surrounded by an iron fence (I couldn't get out), even though the hotel was right there. In fact, there was a part where the iron fence was broken, so I was able to cross the road surrounding the station and reach the hotel in an almost straight line.
As of late November 2024, the hotel was under renovation and the elevator and exterior walls were being repaired. The parking lot in front of the entrance was not paved and was uneven.
The room had already been renovated and was very comfortable.
The bed was of a moderate hardness, the sheets were clean, and there were no traces of bedbugs.
The hot water in the shower came out quickly and the water pressure was sufficient. Body soap and shampoo are provided, but no conditioner.
The power outlet has a USB port, so you can charge your smartphone if you just bring a cable.
However, the metal fittings on the chain lock in the room had come off, making it less safe, but I'm sure this will be fixed when the renovations are complete.
I was very satisfied with my stay.
