Except for getting in the car, my father still stubbornly refused to let us help. The car to Nanjing is very tall and spacious, and it is quite comfortable to sit on. I observed my father from time to time, and I was very afraid that my father would feel unwell due to the long-time car ride. But fortunately, my father's expression was normal all along the way.
Although it took a little more than two hours of bumps, after getting out of the car, my father still insisted on walking alone. After leaving the East Station, we saw a long queue of taxis. I secretly worried about my father. I don't know, standing and waiting for a long time, can my father bear it? At the same time, there is also some regret in my heart. Had I known this was the case, I would have brought a small stool for my father. In this way, father can also sit down and rest for a while. However, regretting it now is useless.
Fortunately, the entire waiting process was carried out in an orderly manner, and there were no adverse phenomena such as jumping in the queue or scrambling. So, although it looked like a long line, we didn't have to wait too long.
After helping my father into the car, I informed the driver of the hotel I booked online. Unfortunately, the driver didn't seem to have quite figured out where the hotel was.
"Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, do you know me?" I could only try another place name, because the hotel I booked was not far from the hospital, so I reported the name of the hospital.
"Is it the hospital on Hongshan Road?" The driver asked with some uncertainty.
"Hongshan Road? I don't know which road to take. All I know is that it's the hospital near Maigaoqiao Station. The hotel I booked is also close to Maigaoqiao Station." Nanjing is not familiar to me, so I just I can name the most obvious nearby landmarks that I saw on the map when I booked a room online. In my opinion, as a driver, you should be more sensitive to places like Maigaoqiao subway station.
"Oh, I see, the hospital you mentioned is on Hongshan Road."
Hearing the driver's extremely affirmative words, my heart finally settled down. Wouldn't it be a sad thing if the driver didn't know the place in a taxi? If it's just my brother-in-law and me, I'd better get out of the car and find another car. At most, I'll spend some time waiting on the side of the road. I believe that drivers who don't know the way will never be embarrassed to collect money from us. However, there is still a father now, and with the current situation of his old man, how can he stand such a torment!
? Finally, we saw the Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine on the side of the road, which made us feel relieved. Then I saw the majestic Maigaoqiao subway station. After walking more than half a circle along the station, I finally found the hotel I booked online. It seems that the driver did not go to the wrong place.
When I saw the hotel, I knew it was impossible to blame the driver for not knowing the hotel I had booked. Firstly, this hotel is really very ordinary, without any conspicuous places; secondly, this is a chain store, which may be everywhere in Nanjing. Of course, the driver couldn¡¯t figure out which branch I was talking about. .
After paying the car readily, we came to the bar of the hotel. It's very simple, and always makes me feel open-air (actually it's just closer to the unenclosed corridor). The attitude of the waiter is average. After knowing that we have already booked online, we checked and asked us to fill in the check-in information. The waiter's attitude was very strict, and he insisted that I fill in all the real information of all the people who stayed before giving up. After the brother-in-law paid the deposit, the waiter told us that they only provide teacups here, and do not provide disposable toiletries. If you need it, please spend money to buy it. Since I came in a hurry, I didn't bring any toiletries, so I bought a set from the waiter. I wanted to complain, because normal hotels will provide disposable toiletries. But after thinking about it, the price here is cheap, so I gave up.
When I came to the room, I finally knew why the price was cheap. The first thing that rushed into the nose was a deep musty smell. I helped my father to sit on the bed, and then I wanted to open the window. But at this time, the brother-in-law's complaints have already sounded. "What's the matter? There's not even a screen window?" At that time, it was the end of June and the beginning of July, the beginning of summer in the south, the temperature was soaring, and mosquitoes were infested. How dare we open the windows for ventilation when there are no screens?
Father was already lying on the bed. Although my father's expression was normal along the way, I knew that this was just because of his strong perseverance. Now that he had arrived, the exhausted father finally showed his true colors, and "laid" on the soft and comfortable bed without any scruples, comfortably and greedily.
My brother-in-law and I are young and healthy, and such a short journey will not have much impact on us at all. So, after settling with Dad, our first thought was to turn on the TV. However, after playing for a long time, there was no response from the dilapidated TV. helpless?, I can only call the service desk and ask. The waiter asked me to try how to get it disapprovingly. I hung up the phone and tried again and again according to the method, but the dilapidated TV was still sleeping. I was so angry that I called again, and this time I asked the waiter to call someone to fix it in a bad tone this time, and threatened to check out otherwise!
Sometimes, it is better for people to be fierce. After I got angry, staff came to check soon. The end result turned out to be that the line for the input signal was not plugged in properly. Damn, this cable is not plugged in, but you asked me to check this switch, that button, etc. It's no wonder that the broken TV responds! I couldn't help cursing in my heart.
In any case, I finally watched TV. Otherwise, how can we spend the night? For my brother-in-law and my age, spiritual enjoyment is definitely more important than material enjoyment on a certain level.
The father, who was closing his eyes and resting his mind, heard the sound of the TV, and immediately put the quilt behind his back, and raised his upper body a little. The meaning is obvious, that is, I also want to watch TV for a while. However, in this way, the half-covered quilt fell behind his father. As soon as we got here, we turned on the air conditioner, and the temperature in the room had dropped a lot. Coupled with the fact that my father is weak, I am very afraid that my father will catch a cold because of this. So I quickly handed over the quilt on our bed to my father to cover it. Then, very consciously tune the TV to the program that my father likes to watch. Finally, put the remote control on the father's side so that the father can change it at any time.
From service to environment to facilities, almost nothing satisfies me. Therefore, as soon as I was free, I began to complain about all kinds of inadequacies in this hotel. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
