The hotel is nice and the staff are very friendly and professional, better than similar hotels I've stated in Beijing. The hotel is on the east-west axis of the city, Chang-an Ave., very easy to get to and super convenient. It is right across the street from the capital museum. The only drawback is the limited choice of dining in the neighborhood, not much there besides the restaurant/bar in the hotel itself. However, it is not a unique problem with this hotel, but many others in Beijing, a city of government and business.
