great location which is just next to railway station, perfect for a transfer stay. hotel room comes with old furniture.  Only thought thing is colored towels and cups are provided to avoid confusion which many hotels do not cater for.

so so hotel with great location

Overall opinion: this hotel is ok, just don't expect too much. Location is good, staff could be more friendly and rooms are really standard and in need of renovation.

We stayed here for 3 nights during Golden Week in October.
The hotel has a great location, right next to the Railway Station and the subway station which is very convenient to go around town. The noise of the trains was not disturbing in the rooms which is also a plus.
The room we got was a 'Business Queen Room'. The bed was indeed a queensize bed but that's about the only 'royal' thing about the room. The room smelled of smoke and you could see that it is in need of renovation. The entire hotel is a bit old I guess. Bathroom with shower was ok and the bed slept just fine. 
We could hear everything from our neighbours in our room: TV, coughing, toilet, ... not very plaisant. And one morning the housekeeping ladies had a lovely chat in front of our door at 6.30am!! So for isolation that would be a NO.
We read that the hotel had several facilities such as a bowling alley and KTV. We searched the entire hotel but didn't find any of these.  

This hotel is a good place to stay if your standards and expectations are low. 
Price/quality and location is good so I would recommend to stay here if you don't want to spend a lot of money on a hotel near the West Lake. If you are looking for a more comfortable stay, don't go here.

Don't expect too much.

This hotel was clean and comfortable and given its location right at the railway station perfect for travelers like me that use the railway frequently. I can imagine when it was new this hotel was very beautiful and welcoming but the 2 rooms we had booked were tired and in need of maintenance. Housekeeping did a fine job and the front desk staff were courteous and helpful. All in all,  if I come through Hangzhou on the rail again I will stay here. 

Good Hotel, great location 

The room is clean with comfy bed. Just over the train station so very convenient for a transfer stay. No no if you are going to stay more than 1 night. The traffic was so noisy in the morning which wakes me up. 

There a 外婆家within the hotel, the food is nice and cheap. Must go. Guest in the hotel can even get a discount.

Clean and decent hotel for a transfer stay

Some hotels are all show up front.  This is one of them.  Situated above the railway station, the foyer is large and has an enourmous reception.  And that is the end of the good points.  The staff speak no English and are not helpful, often rude.  The deposit for two nights was 100RMB.  Our twin bedded room on the 9th floor smelt stale, so we switched on the air conditioner to try to clear it.  It was soon evident thet the AC was not working, so I went back to reception to ask to get it working.  The girl on duty was counting money and indicated that she could not understand me.  I indicated that I wanted to speak to the manager, but she just waved me away and went back to the money counting.

I googled the Chinese for "the AC is not working" on my laptop and took it all the way down to show her.  She then phoned someone.  When she had finished, she indicated that it was not hot and that the AC was switched off.  Dismissed!
The beds were very hard, hard by Chinese standards, the loo was filthy, no free water in the room and the tv did not work.  The traffic noise and the blaring of horns from the station forecourt 9 floors down can be heard quite clearly and is a great alarm clock at 5am.  I had enquired about the internet in the room and was told it was beside the bed.  I found the lead, and on pulling it out from behind the bed, found that it stretched from the bedside cabinet across the room to the desk!  And that only worked after I got them to replace the faulty cable!
When it stopped working later, after I enquired if it would get mended they came and replaced the cable again and then said it was not working in the whole hotel.  It never did work again!

Perhaps you might use it as a one night stay close to the railway station, if you really like hard beds, dirty loo, dirty carpets, dirty walls and stale smell.  I could not recommend it.
