Internet connectivity is the main concern, WiFi signal was ok but the hotel WiFi blocked VPN access (so that you may access banned sites such as google, gmail, facebook, whatsapp, BBC news etc), when it was granted via other WiFi spots in Xi'an.
Overall the hotel is clean and modern, with the odd maintenance issue - such as the plug socket hanging off the wall at the far end of the second floor corridor and minor damage to wallpaper inside the hotel room.
Disconcerting is the amount of cameras inside the hotel itself, from the moment you leave your room you are continuously watched.
