Review
In terms of location, Pazhou Guesthouse has the top location; it is just one metro station from Pazhou. Just get out of Wanshengwei metro exit C, and walk straight for 5 min.
If you are looking for double room below US$30, which is close to metro station, then definitely, this is the best choice.
Yet, of course, you have to bear a series of short coming. For instance, you would surprise to find just get out of metro station; you would first pass by a vegetable field. Actually this hotel is located in a “village”. You would found yourself totally emerged into a completely Chinese village environment. If you are interested to get a real feeling about the original villagers, or the migrant workers who stay in suburb of city, then this is a good start. Yet, do not expect anything related with western world.
Besides, you would have plenty of chance to get a feel about traditional Chinese hotel for instance, the floor is pretty slippery, and some of the stairs do not have the handrail. Besides, even though the hotel has fourth and fifth floor, yet, there is no lift. Even though they claim they would arrange staff to help you to bring your luggage.
Of course, you cannot expect any room service and even the receptionist cannot speak any English.
There is just a Chinese restaurant downstairs and a dish for one person is just about US$2, which is below market price in Guangzhou and you can recharge yourself with traditional Chinese dim sum breakfast before you start your busy day in Pazhou.
