Kitted out kitchen ( I did cook myself a few comforting meals! ) And hang out in a fucking living room where I could relax and catch up on TV (the apartment had everything). The bed?

On one fine morning, I rented a bike and cycled down to West Lake. This ride was only about 20 minutes, but this lake is honestly nothing short of magical to bike around — the water sparkling on my left as pagodas dotting the landscape beside me. West Lake deserves all the hype it gets.

And being at 380 Fen Tan Road also offered me easy access to all the action on the curb.

And those laundry facilities! So I didn’t have to go search for a laundromat, which is such a huge plus when traveling for any length of time. The complimentary Wi-Fi was strong enough to video call home, and even do some work when I had to.
