Guangzhou Meigang Hotel

We were on a business trip to the canton fair and decided to stay at meigang hotel this time. First mistake, I believed the location given on Tripadvisor. Google maps is correct. Taxi driver took us in circles around the area and then blamed us for giving him wrong address. The place looked descent. Rooms are just ok. Small tv with nothing much to watch. The lady at the reception was trying to help us but did not know any English at all. A VPN subscription and Google translate saved us. The beds looked nice. Large springs, but the top layer was like a wire mesh. No foam or cushion support. Had a back ache every night. One day the bathroom had no hot water. Other days it was fine. Breakfast buffet looks ok. But it's not edible. I could smell the noodles from me the whole day after eating them. Tea was tea on two days out of five days. Other days they just had some milk mixed in hot water. It was white in colour and one of those days they also put a board saying juice in front of it. I don't know what I drank. I thought bread butter jam will help me survive buy the jam had expired 5 months ago. Eggs were overboiled. They had garnished sweet cake with chicken floss which had a savoury-sweet flavour. Not quite edible and that flavour in my mouth didn't let me eat anything else that day. Everyday was a surprise, food looked same everyday but you will never know what was filled in the same food. Like buns filled with red chillies, or with red bean paste (sweet) or chicken floss. I will never forget the food I ate in this place. The good thing was the shuttle service they offer for the canton fair. Two busses every morning and also return busses from the venue. We were provided with fresh towels and room slippers everyday. Strangely the tiny soap was not given everyday. Had to manage with two soaps for the whole week.

Let me make it simple: DO NOT stay at this hotel, DISGUSTING place! Runned down rooms, bad smell, ugly neighborhood, leaking toilets, no safe box! I left the same day I checked it, luckly they refunded me the money for the other nights. Ended up paying for 1 night + 5% credit card fee on the total stay amount. But NEVER again, don't be fooled by the photos!
