A truly wonderful check-in experience!

I stayed at the Four Points by Sheraton for two nights and have to commend the doorman for his excellent and enthusiastic service. I asked for a deluxe king room on the 27th floor when I checked in. The room was spacious, but the soundproofing wasn't great as I could hear noise from the hallway. Being on a high floor offered a great view of the whole city. Breakfast was on the 28th floor and had a wide variety of dishes, but it was very crowded, so go early if you want to get something to eat. The floor-to-ceiling windows offered an amazing view. "Linhai" is not actually by the sea, and the mother river is the "Ling River." When I came from Huangyan, I remarked to the driver that Taizhou is all mountains, and Linhai is surrounded by them. Although Four Points is only a four-star hotel, this newly opened one is considered upscale locally. It's in a good location surrounded by commercial areas. It's not luxurious, but I was quite satisfied with my stay. The slow elevators that everyone complains about are because it's in the same building as the Ji Hotel. The Ji Hotel is on floors 16 and below, and the Four Points is on floors 17 and above, so you have to wait longer for the elevators. This trip was blessed with good timing, location, and people, and I was very happy with the hotels I chose.
