Changxing Hotels with Parking

The environment of the courtyard is superb! Great value for money, the boss's family is warm and sincere, the room is very clean, the dishes are fresh and delicious, and the farm chicken pot is especially recommended! The chicken is free-range chicken on the mountain, the meat is super tender, and the soup is delicious! I ate two meals at their house, which was delicious! The breakfast is also delicious. The fried dumplings for breakfast are made by the boss's family, absolutely delicious! A super expected stay experience, I will choose Ru Ni Su Yuan next time, and I wish the boss a prosperous business!

I didn't have high hopes before booking because there are so many misleading photos online 😔 But after checking in, I found it was definitely worth the price. First of all, unlike typical guesthouses, it's more like a manor hotel. Driving in, I was immediately struck by the stunning garden view. The room's decor and materials were also very thoughtful, cleaner and more refined than typical guesthouses, with no unpleasant smells. The service was excellent; if I contacted the manager on WeChat, they would respond immediately without even asking for a review. The best part was that they didn't raise prices during the National Day holiday. The hotel food was also delicious, and the ingredients tasted organic. I even packed a jar of tasty dried radish to take home before leaving ☺️

This hotel is really good! The room is spacious and there is a yard on the first floor, which can make pets super intimate. Welcome fruit and local purple tea tea bags are delivered as soon as you check in, which is super warm. Xia Mu, the housekeeper who helped us serve, is responsible and efficient, and the response is timely and reliable. Although the breakfast type is not huge, it is enough to eat and the taste is OK. The price is old! The location is very good, the street outside the hotel is gathered, next to the two attractions of Tangchao 12fang and Datang Gong Tea House, although some are deserted, but the photo is very good, the overall is the main high cost performance!

Booked this Jielu Mountain Inn in early spring to relax. The public area is decorated with a festive atmosphere. The boss is always smiling and the service is impeccable. The overall layout of the homestay is also very design-oriented and very suitable for company team building and playing small games. It is worth mentioning that I was very satisfied with the food I booked this time. I originally only booked lunch and went to try the surrounding area in the evening. As a result, the two restaurants I found were not as delicious as the one in the store. I decisively booked lunch for the next day. I told the boss in advance what I wanted to eat, and basically satisfied (*^▽^*)y

The room had a musty, damp smell, but the cleanliness was acceptable. However, the toiletries were absolutely awful to use. The hotel room TV surprisingly had no internet and couldn't cast content. You even had to download a universal key app just to connect to Wi-Fi. Is this really 2026? The Longemont Performing Arts City was also extremely disappointing, practically a collection of the worst aspects of national scenic spots. Loud DJs, gaudy and messy sets, and every single attraction required extra payment. I wanted to leave within five minutes of entering. The only thing worth seeing was the evening fireworks, but if the weather isn't good, there's a lot of smoke, making them hard to see. If you're just going for the fireworks, there's absolutely no need to buy a ticket or stay at the hotel. 😓 The experience was terrible.

Location & Transportation: This hotel is ideal for those traveling by car. The owner has essentially taken over an entire mountain, from the lake at the bottom to the tea house at the top, with fruit orchards and vegetable gardens in between. You can pick different fruits depending on the season. Hygiene: Very clean! Not a single strand of hair in the lobby. The cleaning staff starts early in the morning and is still tidying up past 11 PM, even meticulously cleaning each window. Breakfast: I had read reviews saying the breakfast had limited options, but this time, there were so many varieties! Plus, the stir-fried dishes changed daily. Perhaps because they're farm-to-table, all the vegetables were incredibly delicious and sweet! They also had pickled vegetables and bamboo shoot noodles, just like childhood. Service: All the staff greet you warmly; it feels more like a family-run hotel. If you're comparing it to a five-star hotel, you might find some differences, but the staff, especially the young ladies, remember your face. If you forget your key card and go to the front desk, they'll know your room number just by looking at you. A special shout-out to the young lady with an oval face and ponytail; she walked us to the door when we left and invited us back when the 'fried' season (likely a local delicacy or fruit) starts in August. Restaurant: The restaurant food is excellent! The ingredients are incredibly fresh. I highly recommend the fish head and tofu soup; it has absolutely no fishy taste! And the prices are very reasonable. Room Facilities: Since we stayed in a basic room type this time, the room wasn't huge, but the massive floor-to-ceiling windows offered a very expansive view. The only drawback is that the mountain opposite is a coal mine, which slightly affects the scenery. Activities: You can choose from paid activities like fishing, stand-up paddleboarding, and boat rides. Any fish you catch can be prepared for free at the restaurant.

The room was very spacious and the surroundings were nice. However, there was no screen on the window, so mosquitoes were a problem since there was no electric mosquito repellent. The showerhead in the bathroom was a bit old, and the sink faucet was poorly positioned, causing water to splash onto the floor, which was quite inconvenient. Also, the hotel required a deposit, which felt like an extra hassle. The room was also missing a chair; I'd suggest adding one.

When visiting Zhejiang and Shanghai, a staycation is an unmissable travel experience. This time, I chose the Laiye Twelve Beasts Designer Homestay in Heping Town, Wuxing District, Huzhou. The entire homestay is nestled among tea gardens surrounded by mountains, with a strong sense of design. There are 12 rooms on 3 floors, each named after a Chinese zodiac animal. Each room has a different style, with some offering tranquil views of vegetation by the window and others offering views of green tea mountains. Each room has its own unique charm. This time, my family and I experienced the rat, sheep, ox, and dog staycations. Each staycation gave me a different feeling. The homestay's own sika deer was the children's favorite, and there was also a silver shaded dog named Zongzi that was very friendly to the guests.

Let's start with the only positive: the hotel is located within the ancient town, which makes it convenient to explore and pop back for a rest whenever needed. The overall cleanliness was decent; on the first day, I requested cleaning before heading out, and my room was tidied up by the time I returned. My biggest complaint is how incredibly small the room was. I've never stayed in such a tiny hotel; it barely fit two beds with just enough room to walk. There was no desk, only one chair. The facilities were very old and run-down. The wall outlets were so loose that my charger wouldn't even stay in. The air conditioning would turn off shortly after being switched on, requiring me to get up and restart it every time. I couldn't tell if it was broken or intentionally set up that way. Luckily, it wasn't cold during my stay, so the AC issue wasn't a major problem.

Even though the staff does not speak English, it was great service that they offered through WeChat (and translation tools)! The breakfast is rather dull, however, it gets the job done. Self-service laundry and small gym on site. The mall right next to the hotel offers many restaurants and some shopping opportunities.  And the park just across the street is nice for walking and jogging. Overall value for money was acceptable.
