The hotel is part of a large shopping center complex, and office tower. I stayed there for a week when it first opened and it was very nice.
The Chongmenwen subway station is only one block away, and Tienanmen is only 2-3 stops from there. Adjacent to the hotel is a good grocery store where you can stock up on snacks and drinks, or sample the local cuisine. The store-make crispy duck was OK and the steamed pork buns too. Also, the shopping mall has a 'point to order' food court, so you know what you're getting.
I hired a car & driver from the hotel, and he drove me to the Ming Tombs and the Great Wall. For $80, it was an excellent deal! The car was an Audi.
The room was standard Courtyard, although it had a few more gadgets; it also had a large couch. Imagine what a JW Courtyard would look like, and you get the picture!!
