Such a fantastic discovery in Lijiang! We stayed 3 nights in this new B & B and its decor, service and security all equivalent to hotel standard. It is in a super location. Moreover the boss was very generous and gave us complimentary drinks.

This hotel is worthy of great praise! First of all, in terms of hardware, the location is good, the room hardware facilities are very good, the interior is also very clever, and many small details are better than many five-star hotels. Secondly, in terms of service, no matter from the initial communication to the check-in, every hotel staff makes you feel at home. Not only does it provide airport pick-up and drop-off, but also arranges bedtime sweet water every night, delicious coffee, small cakes on the day of check-in, etc. There is no point to find any shortcomings, it is really a great recommendation.

Are hotels now so popular? The room hardware is very tasteful and the hygiene is impeccable. The design is meticulous: the bathroom shower head has two buttons inside and outside to control it, so you don't have to be scared to get a cold shower every time. After returning from a trip, fruit afternoon tea was delivered to the room. The service quality of the ladies was quite high, professional and attentive. Breakfast is a combination of buffet and a la carte, and the beef rice noodles are delicious. I really can't say what's wrong with this hotel. It has a superior location, the back door leads directly to the ancient town, and it is quiet in the bustling city. It is impeccable.

The front desk lady was very friendly and took the initiative to help with the luggage! The room was cleaned very clean every day, and welcome fruits and tea were prepared. The response speed when encountering problems was super fast, and it really made "guests feel at home". Highly recommended!

In Lijiang, is this the ceiling of domestic homestays? I stayed in Lijiang for three nights for the first time. The price was more than 1,000 yuan, and the service was jaw-dropping. It is recommended to promote such services nationwide. The first thing that impressed me when I entered the lobby was: the waiter took the suitcase very enthusiastically, and there was no need to stand at the front desk to wait for check-in. The waiter came to check in while you were drinking tea. Very considerate. The courtyard, but it reveals exquisiteness everywhere. Just after sitting down for a minute or two, the waiter immediately brought two glasses of rose water, and I was moved again. After checking in, I immediately received a message from the housekeeper on my mobile phone to tell me about the various rights and interests during my stay. The housekeeper will also confirm the pick-up time the day before check-in. The afternoon tea is also sincere and exquisite. When I entered the room, I saw the welcome fruit they prepared. And the whole tea cabinet is free, and it provides several bottles of imported mineral water and some drinks. Restaurant, and breakfast. Everything I got for breakfast was delicious, that is, the kind of sincere breakfast. The kind that can make you full and eat well. Here comes the key point. The housekeeper will explain the travel strategy to avoid pitfalls. The housekeeper service is very good and responsive. A big plus +1. Various details are super five-star.

I have never liked a hotel so much. Because of the promotion of this newly opened hotel, I changed the original Changbai Mountain itinerary to Lijiang. Facilities: The actual room I stayed in this time was a parent-child room. It is a newly opened hotel. The facilities are very online, especially some small details worth digging into. The bedside is equipped with a free 1-to-3 data cable and a small tool box, as well as hand-brewed coffee supplies. The minibar provides special beer. The toiletries provided are all Balmain, and the whole house floor heating does not need to turn on the air conditioner in winter. Hygiene: I booked a twin room. Because it was late at night when I arrived, the original room had a little hygiene problem. The staff quickly helped to upgrade and change the room. The hygiene of the new room is standard. Environment: The hotel itself is on the edge of the ancient city, with its own door to enter and exit the ancient city, and the design is very attentive. I couldn't help but take a lot of photos in the hotel, and the hotel has its own sika deer~ Service: After staying for 3 nights, I was impressed by the very enthusiastic service. From providing free pick-up and drop-off, and there are staff waiting at the door of the hotel to pick up the luggage late at night. Every time I met him, he would greet me enthusiastically and proactively, and asked about afternoon tea and evening sweet soup. Breakfast was semi-buffet, and there were pictures of staple food. The dishes were served quickly, and during the stay, no more than 5 tables were used at the same time, which was very comfortable. Overall, the experience of staying in this hotel with my family this time can be included in the top experience of life, and my family members were also very satisfied. If there is another opportunity next time and the ability allows, I will choose to stay in this hotel again. After all, the high price is not his problem, but my problem)

This hotel is a detail-oriented hotel. 1. There is a shower switch outside the shower room. 2. The hand-brewed container and very good beans are ready. The texture is much better than the hotel with a coffee machine. If you don’t like grinding beans yourself, you can ask the waiter to hand-brew. 3. Intelligent control of the room, including lighting. The lighting design is very good. 4. The tea in the room is of good quality. It is local tea, but it is definitely above average. 5. The towel is soft. There is also a steam eye mask and a small tool box. There is even a magnifying glass suitable for the elderly. Soft service is butler-style. I feel that all employees will not easily say no to you. They are very polite and well trained. The girl who makes desserts is simply omnipotent. I asked Xiao Li to take me to the rooftop to watch the sunrise on Jinshan Mountain early in the morning. Xiao Li was also very patient and took pictures for me. If I was not satisfied, he took another picture for me. The service was particularly good. All services were very good. Although the breakfast is not the kind of variety and quantity, each ingredient is of very good quality. Eating their beef rice noodles is much better than buying outside. The soup is very good and the beef is also of high quality. Thank you very much for the service provided by all employees during our stay
