Lanaman Boutique Hotel (Aofan Center Store, 54 Square, Qingdao)

The reception is very kind all the time. I stayed this hotel for 3 days and didn't have any problem during my staying. The hotel is well-located and the metro station is also within 10 mins on foot. Everything is perfect for me and I will definitely stay here when I come to Qingdao again.

It was easy to book! Paid by apple pay. Got a room with 2 beds slightly larger than twin mattress for 2 nights for $41CAD per night. Neighborhood has lots of lunch and dinner places. Only a few blocks from over 100 restaurants. Neighborhood felt safe and somewhat quiet after 9pm. Fair amount of daytime noise which is expected. Aircon was strong which was important to me. There was a shared fridge for the whole hotel which has about 40rooms i think. I was able to chill my drinks and fruits which was nice. I needed to repair a bag and the front desk loaned me a needle and gifted me thread which was nice. The room bathrooms have a sit down toilet which is nice, but their showers are the type integrated into the entire bathroom without a divider or curtain so everything will get wet. Thankful for the bathroom ventilation which dries the bathroom in about 3-4 hrs in warm weather. There’s an additional shared shower & squat toilet near the tiny lobby that needs renovation, but at least it’s there in case of need. I was on the first floor and when I opened my window I could hear people spitting hawk tuah in the alley at least 20 times during my stay. Rooms are small if you have 2 large adults with luggage. But using the small tables & shelving well & closing the windows and turning on the AC helped. I was happy with the price and the peaceful area. In a pinch I would stay again…just above hostel level stay.

I travelled alone and stayed in Lanaman Boutique Hotel for 6 days. Everything is good, including of room condition, the services and position of hotel. Lanaman is located about 500m from the nearest metro (Line 3 - Jiangxi road) and Qingdao Secondary School which was a filming set. You can easily use metro to get to many travel spots near by. It is a little noisy (you can hear the sound from the other room or sound from outside, but for me it is ok). Room condition or facility is not that new but it is worth the price. It seems that you can self-laundry your cloth but I havent tried.
