We didn't get the apartment in Nanjing. They had a town house out side the city, but we would need a big car (there are 8 of us). We decided to go for a hotel in the heart of the city. We needed 3 rooms for 6 nights $$$$!!!! We are waiting for a confirmation on the Central Hotel in Nanjing. It cost on average $20 per night less then the Mandarin hotel (so for us $60 per night cheaper)and the rooms look much bigger. It has a swimming pool, and a bowling ally. It should be fine. We at least get an apartment half of the trip, and I'm happy about this!
