Good-Bye Beijing, Hello Xi'an
An early flight means another early start to the day. I wake up at 4:00 so I can get ready and packed before we have to head down for breakfast at 5:00.

“ Excellent Location ”
Reviewed May 7, 2013
Although the hotel is older, it has been renovated and updated. Not as nice as it could have been but friendly staff and excellent location make this a good choice.
