Dawu Binguan

Description:

• Located just south (right) of the bus station, this is Maqin's premier hotel. That's not a big claim. Midsize rooms in building 2 (er lou) are sunny, beds are comfy, but in spite of new electric showers, the tubs are grubby and the plumbing is shoddy. The reception staff is so indolent that they will ask you to go tell the maid to check your room, rather than pick up the phone in front of them.
