Great
Posted on Jun 18, 2025
The homestay has a good view at night and in the morning but the space is quite small, especially the toilet and bathroom. Ensure you call the homestay before arriving to get their wechat number so that you can arrange for them to pick you up as drivers are not allowed to drive into the ancient city itself and this hotel is quite hidden away and hard to find. Once we managed to contact the staff, everything went quite smoothly and the lady boss was very pleasant - made us nice cups of coffee and gave us some local sweets to bring with us when we checked out. Communication with guests prior to arrival can be further improved for a better overall experience.

Owner is very kindness and take us from rainbow bridge to Diaojiaoluo. Welcome drink are coffee and tea very delicious.
Response from Property: Dear guest, thank you for your detailed review. I'm sorry to hear that you had a bad experience. The size of the room is displayed on the app details page and the room details page. If you didn't notice it, I'm truly sorry. There might be some music in the evening, but we have already communicated with the party and asked them to stop the music before the rest time. Thank you for your satisfaction with the location of our hotel and our service. Welcome to China for a visit! As the saying goes, "It's a great pleasure to have friends from afar."

Amazing
Posted on Oct 6, 2024
This establishment,the staff and boss are very helpful.Staff greeted us on the rainbow bridge and brought us to the room. When we checked out, a similar service was given and she helped to book a cab to the station.
The room is a little small but very cosy, the view at this place is magnificent with the river view. Try sleeping early is a bit of a problem due to pubs on the opposite side. On the whole I would still come back to stay here.
Response from Property: Dear guest, thank you for your praise. Your recognition is a great encouragement to us. We will definitely optimize our services more carefully so that every guest who stays in our hotel can enjoy the best experience. The short time together leaves us with beautiful memories, which we will treasure well. Our stilt house is located between Hongqiao and Xueqiao, and the balcony hangs over the Tuojiang River. It is the most central location of the entire Tuojiang River, the real C position. The most beautiful place for night view, with a wide view and a river view room. When the breeze from the Tuojiang River blows, let it send you our sincere blessings, wishing you happiness every year and success in everything.

Location is perfect - direct view of river and close to the dock for river cruise ride. However there are 4 cafes right opposite that had loud singing to 11.30 pm. Not great for those sensitive to loud noise. Room is extremely small and tight and bathroom is tiny but this is expected of the homestay in the centre of the ancient town. The lady owner was very helpful and responsive. Gave each one of us a pack of ginger sweet upon check out.

The staffs were very friendly and courteous. The owner, in particular, was very attentive. She actually assisted in our baggage, greeted us at a location nearest to the lodge (as it is closed to any vehicle traffic in the ancient city). Our balcony provided us a perfect venue to enjoy the view of the river.
Response from Property: Thank you for your careful review! We are committed to providing guests with a home-like experience. We hope you have fun and stay comfortably in Fenghuang. Each room of the B&B is equipped with an independent balcony. We only hope that you can unload your fatigue in the environment surrounded by mountains and water, feel the breeze on the river, and look at the brilliance of the bright moon in the mountains. In the embrace of nature, you can find a quiet place and return to your true self. The journey will always end. If one day the hustle and bustle of the world bothers you, the mountains and waters of Fenghuang will be here waiting for you to go home. Xiaoyuan looks forward to your visit again.

The hotel overlooks the river, which we consider the best area for the bridges. The owners are super attentive and go out of their way to make your stay as pleasant as possible. We were surprised at the end of the night with a gift of local products... truly a host! Thank you for your stay!

Very Good
Posted on Apr 10, 2025
The owners were very helpful, and there was actually good coffee at the reception. The location is good for those who like to be right by the river in the old town. Unfortunately, it wasn't ideal for us with small children, as you have to carry your luggage quite a distance over cobblestones. On the other hand, the noise from the bars is very loud until after 11:00 PM.

Response from Property: Madoka is so touched to receive such high praise! Madoka is honored to meet you and leave wonderful memories with you during your trip. Customer first is our principle, considerate and thoughtful service is our duty, and providing you with a perfect resting place during your journey is our most sincere vision. In life, we always have to rush for many things that are out of reach, but we miss the flowers blooming on the roadside and the sunset in the evening. In Mengyuan, you can slow down and sit on the stilted building. When it rains, you can make tea, listen to the rain, and watch the mist rising on the Tuojiang River. When the weather is clear, you can lean on the railing and look far away, savoring the local customs of Phoenix. I hope your memories of Phoenix will be good, and Xiaoyuan looks forward to seeing you again!

The hotel is OK. It's my first time staying in this hotel in Phoenix. Molly at the front desk is very welcoming. The room is very quiet. I live on the 3rd floor, which is very safe and good!

Response from Property: Thank you for your praise! I am glad that every aspect of the homestay has been liked and recognized by you. The sanitation of the homestay is cleaned every day for each guest, and the guest rooms are fully equipped. The exterior of the homestay has chosen the most Tujia-style stilt house, and the interior has chosen intelligent guest control, so that you can experience the most comfortable stay while feeling the unique style of Fenghuang. On the balcony of the stilt house, looking down is the tender Tuojiang River. Looking along the water flow, a series of wind and rain bridges stand on the river surface, facing you from a distance. As the sun sets, the charming Fenghuang gradually wakes up, the river lights and fishing fires complement each other, and the endless Tuojiang River reflects the warm background of Fenghuang. In Mengyuan, you can experience it whether it is the Qingyuan of the misty Jiangnan or the bustle of thousands of lights. Xiaoyuan looks forward to your visit again and returning to the embrace of the ancient city of Fenghuang.
