CCyfer3185Stayed at this homestay for 3 nights in July which is peak season for summer domestic travel in China. The rooms are comfortable and had all the amenities you’d expect of a 4 star hotel - comfortable beds, lounging area, balcony, TV, good toiletries, hair dryer. Other positives were very friendly service staff, hearty breakfast from the cafe with is on the same premise. There’s also local restaurants nearby to dine at which are not bad, just 5-10 mins walk down the road. I also enjoyed waking up to run across the bridge which has a great sunrise view. A lot of tourists visit the cafe for the sunset views. The hotel staff can do room service and bring food ordered from the cafe to your room if requested.
Note though that location wise it is not as close to other cafes and stuff. You’ll need to travel a fair bit if you want to venture and do other things. I wanted a peaceful retreat with a good view but nearer to mainland (compared to the main 西山岛) so this worked for me.
I stayed in 3 different rooms (Rm 1,4,5) for my 3 nights as I had asked for a room with a view but was initially assigned one that was completely blocked by trees. In trying to accommodate my request I ended up having different rooms (to no fault of the staff and property) each night. There are 8 ‘normal rooms’ and one suite room that is round and more suited for honeymoon/romantic occasions. Rooms 3,4,5,6 are the ones with the better view. Room 1 (my first room) has a completely blocked view which is a waste staying by the lake. Rooms 4 and 5 have the best view. Note also that rm 1 and 4 have a skylight that cannot be blocked so by 5 am your room is gonna be bright although they do give you eye shades to help.
There is also no laundry facilities on site.
Only additional feedback to the property would be that they could consider a discount for guests to dine at the cafe, that could encourage guests to have more meals there.
Overall I enjoyed my stay and would recommend this for anyone looking for an escape for the buzz and want a tranquil place to rest!
ゲゲストThis hotel was probably one of the best if not the best hotels my family and I stayed at while traveling through China.
We got 1 room with 1 Queen bed and a 2nd room with 1 Queen bed and 1 single bed which could fit 2 adults if you wanted to. Both rooms were huge and spacious with plenty of room for activities. And you can crack the windows to let fresh air in.
They also have a ac/heater thermostat in each room which allows you to switch to whichever you want and they work really well.
Our first room was freshly cleaned upon our arrival with the floors still wet from being freshly mopped. So good to know they take their cleaning seriously.
Shower was amazing with a wand and rain combo.
The wand has 3 modes interchangeable modes on it and has a good strong pressure. Body wash and shampoo is supplied by the hotel.
Amenities were good the robe they offer is the most comfortable robe I’ve ever used at any hotel ever.
Staff was amazing and helpful they always greet you when they see you. They dont understand english but they will use a translator to help if needed.
They had a laundry room which was open 24/7 with an amazing 3 washers and 3 dryers with free detergent.
The gym was pretty sad with 2 cardio machines and 1 rowing machine, no weights.
They also have delivery robots so if you order takeout and get it delivered to the hotel the robots will take it to your room, even taking the elevators by themselves.
The location of the hotel was perfect as it’s right next to a hustle and bustling street and next to a bunch of vendor streets and also near the temple.
My tip for your stay is to make sure the window is locked when you close it as it will create a seal and keep out all the street noises. I wish I knew that before hand as all I did was close it without locking and would be woken up by nonstop honking.
It wasnt until my checkout day I found out locking the window makes the room eerily quiet.
Overall an amazing stay and wished we stayed longer.
