Introduction
Located about 45 minutes drive away from the Baiyun international airport in Guangzhou, the 7 Days Inn is a basic, 2-star, no frills motel. The best thing about this place is the convenient location, within walking distance to the Shangxiajiu pedestrian shopping street, and the Changshou Lu metro station. Otherwise, the facilities here are very limited, but on the flipside, they are among the most affordable places in the city.
Ambience
Ambience at 7 Days Inn is lacking. The place shows signs of age, and while the corridors are brightly lit, there is a musky smell. The floor is uneven in some places. I do commend them for having some fake flowers around, which lends much needed colour. Else, there is nothing visually appealing about the place. In addition, the building is shared with other corporations, whose staff sometimes relax in the lobby.
Room
Rooms at 7 Days Inn are basic. It's clean to an acceptable standard, and safety is assured with both a door lock and a chain lock. This at least makes it passable for a stay. The bed is large, but rather firm, and pillows are limited. There is a functional wooden desk with sufficient power outlets. The bathroom is clean and spacious, and I like that towels are clean, plastic-wrapped for hygiene. However, the shower and shampoo is not topped up regularly, and the television sometimes doesn't work. The best part is the fast and stable in-room wifi.
Food
Food at 7 Days Inn is non-existent, because they do not have any kitchen, nor room service of any kind. However, food options are plentiful, as there are many casual eateries and supermarkets within walking distance, most of which are hygienic enough to dine in.
Service
Service at 7 Days Inn is variable in quality. There are some outstanding staff, proactive and friendly, eager to assist, and will anticipate and exceed expectations of your requests. Yet, other staff appear unsure of their own procedures or come across as inflexible.
Facilities & Activities
The facilities and activities at 7 Days Inn is limited. Besides the fast and stable wifi throughout the place, the only other facility is their open pantry for guests, where you can bring in food to consume. They also have a business centre, which consists of 1 public desktop. Essentially, stay here only if you want affordability and convenience, but don't mind less comfort.
