I stayed at Rising Dragon International Hotel Dongguan for three consecutive nights during my business trip to Chashan, Dongguan. As a frequent traveler in the Pearl River Delta, I have always had strict requirements for hotel hygiene. However, this hotel located next to Dongguan Railway Station has engraved the word 'clean' into every detail, completely refreshing my understanding of hotels in the town.
When checking in, I paid special attention to the details of the lobby. The marble floor was shining brightly, and there was no dust accumulation in the corners or crevices. The front desk countertop was polished to a shiny finish, and there was no debris found in the gaps between the sofas in the public lounge area. As soon as I entered, my first impression was particularly impressive. The front desk staff wore clean disposable gloves throughout the process of handling the procedures, and the room card they handed me was still in a sealed bag that had been disinfected. The hygiene awareness in the details immediately made people feel relieved.
The moment I pushed open the guest room door, my first impression was that there was no odor. Many old hotels or hotels near stations with high foot traffic can always smell stuffiness, smoke, or the pungent smell of cleaning agents as soon as you enter, but the rooms here only have a faint and refreshing fragrance, without any impurities. I habitually used my built-in wet wipes to wipe the areas that are most prone to dirt and grime - the TV frame, switch panel, desktop corners, and kettle handle. After wiping with the wet wipes, there was almost no dirt, and it was evident that every high-frequency contact area had been carefully wiped.
The cleanliness of bedding is impeccable. The white bed sheet and blanket are laid flat on the bed, without any stains, hair or wrinkles. The edges of the pillow are clean, and there are no yellow stains left even at the zipper. I deliberately lifted the blanket to check the gaps in the mattress. There was no debris or dust inside, and there was no strange smell in the pillow core and quilt core. There was no psychological burden when lying down, and I slept very soundly for three consecutive nights.
The hygiene details in the bathroom are the most surprising. The glass door with dry and wet separation is wiped clean, without any water stains or scale. The countertop of the washbasin is dry and tidy, and there is no hair residue at the drain. The gaps between the ceramic tiles in the shower area are clean and free of any signs of blackening or mold. The seat and edges of the toilet are polished and shiny. Disposable toiletries are packaged in sealed bags and placed in disinfected trays. While the cleaning lady was cleaning, I happened to go back to her room to retrieve documents. I witnessed her using specialized cloths of different colors to wipe the countertop, glass, and toilet separately, without mixing them up or down. Her professionalism is not inferior to that of high-end hotels in the city.
The hygiene in public areas is also online. The temperature controlled swimming pool on the third floor has clear water to the bottom, and there is no standing water or water stains on the ground by the pool. The lockers and shower rooms in the changing room are disinfected for each guest, and there is no stuffiness at all. Every time the equipment in the gym is used, the staff will promptly wipe it with disinfectant wipes, and even the racket handles in the table tennis room cannot find any sweat stains. Every day when I go out and return to my room, the cleaning lady not only cleans up the garbage on the table, but also quietly replaces the water cup I left by the table with a new sterilized coaster. The attention to detail is particularly striking.
The biggest feeling after staying for three nights is that in a hotel with a particularly fast flow of people around the train station, it is really rare to achieve such a high level of hygiene details. Whether it's a business trip or a short trip with my child, staying at Rising Dragon International Hotel Dongguan completely eliminates the need to worry about hygiene issues. Next time I come to Chashan in Dongguan, I will definitely choose this place without hesitation.Show more
