A better hotel near gate 2 (west gate) of Hohai University.
There are only some hotels at Gate 2, 100 for more than one night, with standard rooms and general decoration. There are several hotel chains at Gate One. There's one next to Happy Home. A little further, there's a chain in a yard. It looks good. It's on Hankou West Road. You can see it all the way. It is easy to find.
