瑰俪公寓(广州珠江新城店)

Leaving another review for this booking because it turns out they have several different units they use. The location is perfect and (if you speak Chinese) the guy helping you to your room is very friendly. For the rest it’s awful.

During fair time this is one of the most affordable options. It’s not a hotel, just an apartment. Don’t expect anything more than a bed and a bathroom

This review is relative to what I paid. The apartment is decent enough, clean, no smell of smoke, quite spacious and the location is great for downtown - literally a few minutes walk from Zhujiang New Town station and 5-10 min walk to river viewing point of Canton tower. The landlady provides you with a map of how to access, which is fairly accurate, however the name in the description on Trip.com is not the name of the building (it's Leiden Sunshine Apartments) ... Obviously it's not Rosewood at this price point but it makes it difficult to find the property .. though if you are in the right vicinity, if you show someone the map, they should be able to direct you to correct building .. then you ha e to go to an office and they can call the landlady. They are friendly but there may be some difficulty in translations, so ideal to have a translator app handy if you don't speak mandarin. Other than that I think it was good for my one night transit, as wanted to explore the heart of GZ and this was central to what I wanted .. it's about 50 minutes from airport on line 3 (no need to change). Overall it's a good choice if you know above points.
