625 RMB is a good price. Everytime I have gone to the fair I have ended up staying in a total dump. Last October session I paid 1500 RMB for a room that looked like skid row. Haven't been able to find anything decent and don't want to pay over $300 per night. Guangzhou, not my favorite destination in China. Will skip Canton fair from now on and just go to the HK shows.
