Crowne Plaza Shenzhen Longgang City Centre!

I was bored celebrating Lunar New Year in Shenzhen, so I decided to take my child to Longgang Children's Park and stay at a hotel.
I used 12,000 points to redeem a family room at the Crowne Plaza Longgang City Centre. Since the hotel is essentially a business hotel, the family room design only includes family-themed bed sheets, quilt covers, pillowcases, and a small tent. Children's supplies were placed in the room in advance, and this time there was a children's mouthwash cup. The welcome drinks and food for members were average, with a bottle of soda and some biscuits and sweets.
I stayed on the executive floor because of my membership benefits, but the lounge was closed during the Lunar New Year. The hotel offered a dinner buffet and double breakfast (the points room itself does not include breakfast). The dinner buffet was much more varied than the lounge, and I was full and satisfied. After all, it only lacked the hot pot buffet part compared to customers who purchased at the full price. It was not necessary to pay extra CNY 238 per person for the hot pot. There was also a free children's sandwich-making activity during dinner, which every child could participate in. The ice cream for dessert after dinner was also delicious, possibly because the whole dining process was free.
The breakfast the next day did not have many varieties and the taste was average. The overall plus point was the free dinner buffet. During the Lunar New Year, the points room did not increase in price, and the overall conversion value of a room night with double breakfast and double dinner buffet was about CNY 430.
The biggest surprise was that the kids' club was very large, larger than all the family play spaces I've been to in other hotels. It's like a miniature Naughty Castle, where you can do family baking, handicrafts, and other activities. The discounted price for hotel guests is CNY 78 per child, which I think is very affordable. Children can play for a long time, and can enter and exit countless times throughout the day without time limit!
The downside is probably that the toilet has no door or is an odd shape, and there is only one washbasin, which is inconvenient for a family to wash, and the basin space is also very small!
