In the heart of Shapingba District, Chongqing, a modest hotel run by 36-year-old Zhou Yue is becoming a beacon of hope for down-on-their-luck strangers. With 13 years in the hospitality industry, Zhou's hotel offers 35 clean, fully-equipped rooms. Its true distinction lies in its owner's compassionate policy: providing free or heavily discounted lodging to those who are on their hard times.
