We stayed at the height of Chinese New Year, so hotel was operating on a skeleton crew. All staff were kind and professional. Room didn't get cleaned some days until after 6pm, and there seems to be a hotel culture of staff entering the room several times a day for various minor tasks. Even so, ot was a pleasant, quiet room, in a clean, quiett hotel.
We were given an unexpected upgrade, to the "Executive" floor. The room was maybe a little larger, but since I never saw the standard room we booked, I don't know.
Room smelled of cigarettes, even though the whole hotel is supposedly non-smoking. This dissapated after the first day's stay, so must have been the previous guest? I'd been warned that all Chinese hotel rooms will reek of stale cigarette smoke, so maybe this is not really about this hotel as much as it is about the culture.
Hallway was very hot, room was very warm, we kept the heat off and the window open about a foot even though night-time temps were well below freezing. Staff routinely shut the window anytime they came into the room in our absence.
The hotel was a 10 minute walk from the #14 Subway line, and well connected to the city bus system. There is a nice park nearby that we enjoyed walking to, and relaxing in.
I'd happily stay at the Metropark Lido again.
