Colour Boutique Hotel (Shenzhen Shekou Sea World, Shuiwan Metro Station)

The hotel is conveniently located in Shekou area and very close to a lot of restaurants of all sizes and styles. A bummer that it doesn't have an elevator, though it makes up for that by offering a hand with the luggage. Perhaps the major drawback for me was the cockroach that was in the room when I got back in the evening from a walk. It delivers what is to be delivered at that price point.

It was easy to find and the room was as advertised. The only issue is that it didn't have any elevators and had to carry my luggage upstairs without any help.

This is quite a basic hotel. Although it's fairly clean there is a lot of grime around the shower and sink. My room didn't have a window, which would be fine except that the lighting was insufficient so the room felt very dim. The key card needed to be updated every day, and didn't always work fist time, which meant a lot of trips up and down the stairs between my room and reception. The location is good, with lots of bars and restaurants around, and an easy walk from the metro.

The rooms are very small and there is no door between the toilet and shower, but it was very clean and it's location is great.

Ok, overall the Hotel was "you get what you pay for." It's not luxurious by any stretch of the imagination. It's small and has all the essentials. My biggest problem was that one night there was evidently a married couple that stayed in the room next to mine. The husband decided to start yelling, breaking things, and sounded like domestic violence. I immediately alerted the front desk and ask them to call the police. They promptly moved me from the current room I was in, to another further away. I still hear the screaming and breaking of things for a few minutes after that. The following day, I made a complaint, but the hotels' policy was for them to "stay out of it." They simply said they were moved to another room. I was speechless. I'm in a different country, yet I expected so much more.... Other than that incident, nothing was stolen, the units were cleaned daily, and they have a laundry room on site. The price was the best in town.
