Guest UserLocated at the end of Nanmen Bay, on the upper left of Dongshan Fengdongshi Scenic Area, the room we stayed in has no noise mirrors and looks like it is in the scenic area. The super invincible sea view, we can take postcard-like photos on our own private balcony. In terms of geographical location, other B&Bs or hotels on Dongshan Island may really not be able to compare with his home. In terms of the luxury of the room, many B&Bs I have stayed in in China are really not on the same level as his home. The decoration in the room is simple but high-end, and many equipment and furniture are imported (so although the room fee has been collected, pre-authorization is still required). His shower room is one of the few hotels and B&Bs I have stayed in in China that will not leak. The projector also has a high-definition picture. There are many snacks in the room. Basically, you don’t want to go out when you stay in the room, because the beautiful sea view can make you lie on the rocking chair on the balcony for an afternoon. It’s really a bit like our vacation in Seychelles or Six Senses Yao Noi.
Because it is relatively hidden, it is a little far from the parking and commercial areas (many restaurants are in this area), and the owner of the B&B will drive a battery car to pick you up. The B&B is not far from the only remaining ancient street in Dongshan, and there are many snack shops and small restaurants on the ancient street. Go to the lower left after leaving the B&B, and you will see many piers where fishing boats are moored after passing the Fengdongshi ticket office. The more famous Fish Ball Grandma on the island is nearby. His Liufu fish balls, peanut sesame cakes and meat dumplings are delicious.
The B&B does not provide breakfast, but you can take it out, which is not inconvenient.
The main thing here is the high-end rooms and the unbeatable sea view. The most important thing is that dogs are also welcome. My two short legs also like it here very much.

Two months later, while browsing Ctrip, I suddenly realized I hadn't written my January review, so I'm adding it here.
The room was clean and tidy. Dongshan Island is very cold in January, and the room even provided thick blankets.
The people at Hai Le Xin are incredibly kind. My roommates from Xinjiang and Chengdu, along with Da Huang and Xiao Hui, went to see the sunrise. A young man even took me to Aojiao on his electric scooter.
The owner is also incredibly kind. I want to shout out to the owner! The first night, I couldn't ride an electric scooter, so he lent me his bicycle. When the bicycle broke down halfway, he came to rescue me on his motorcycle and recommended good restaurants along the way.
The next day, my electric scooter ran out of power at Aojiao, and he brought me batteries. Later, he took me to other attractions, and when I was leaving, he even took me to the nearby bus stop.
I originally expected to spend the New Year's holiday alone and lonely, but my experience here made me feel incredibly pampered.
The sea breeze on Dongshan Island in January is icy, but the people at Hai Le Xin are warm and welcoming.
When will my next holiday come? I'll definitely come back to Hai Le Xin! 🥰🥰🥰

ErererererererererererereryeOur little one wanted to see 'A Yuan's Home,' so we brought the picture book and came to stay. This guesthouse is located within the Tianluokeng Tulou Scenic Area in Nanjing. It's easy to find if you're driving, and personally, I found it even better than the Yunshuiyao Scenic Area – fewer crowds and stunning scenery. It's also very close to Taxia Village, which you can reach by cycling or walking. There, you can visit the 700-year-old Yuchang Lou, famously standing 'crooked but firm,' and grab a meal at the Xiaogqiao Liushui Restaurant. Just a heads-up if you're driving, be mindful of parking restrictions. Getting to Tianluokeng's iconic 'Four Dishes and One Soup' cluster is also super convenient, just a ten-minute drive. The Tulou are truly magnificent!
The guesthouse hostess is incredibly nice, and they have a lovely Golden Retriever named Xiao Chai, who is very friendly and well-behaved. We booked a duplex room with a living area downstairs and the sleeping area upstairs. It even came with a projector, which was a huge bonus! But the real highlight was the in-room washer-dryer combo – such a thoughtful and convenient amenity!

Thanks to the proprietress of Nanjing Tulou Yunlai Villa for her warm and thoughtful reception, which made us feel at home and at the same time as if we were at home. A cup of good tea made us feel the hospitality of the people in the Villa. The quiet night made us feel We had a comfortable and quiet sleep, and the fresh air in the mountains put us in the embrace of nature. This is what city people hope for! Next time I come to Nanjing, I’ll stay at Yunlai Villa!

Berthauli RositaThe hotel's location is superb, with many popular attractions and local restaurants within walking distance.
I arrived at around 7:00 PM after a full-day Tulou tour and was completely exhausted. Since I didn't have the ******* app, I asked the lady at the front desk if she could help me order dinner. She was incredibly kind and helpful. In less than an hour, my food arrived, and after enjoying dinner, taking a shower, and settling into the comfortable bed, I had a wonderful night's sleep.
The bed was very cozy, and the room lighting was exactly what I like—warm, comfortable, and relaxing. The XiaoDu AI assistant was also very convenient, allowing me to control the room's facilities easily with voice commands.
I booked a room with breakfast, and I was impressed by the wide variety of food available. Even though I woke up late, the staff continued to replenish the dishes until 10:00 AM, so there was still plenty to choose from. I especially loved the made-to-order noodle station—it was absolutely delicious.
The hotel also provides excellent facilities, including a clean and convenient self-service laundry room. One unique feature I really enjoyed was the Chinese classical culture room, where guests can take photos with a traditional calligraphy desk and a guzheng, the beautiful Chinese traditional string instrument.
Overall, I had a wonderful stay and was extremely satisfied with this hotel. The excellent service, comfortable room, thoughtful facilities, and convenient location made my experience truly memorable. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Staying at this homestay, it really feels great! The boss is warm and hospitable, please let us eat his own passion fruit and taste his tea. Breakfast is cheap and affordable. Parking is convenient and free. Below the corridor pavilion of the room is the vegetable plot, standing in front of the window can enjoy the pastoral scenery. It is very close to the scenic Huaiyuan Tulou, just a few minutes walk. You can walk from Yunshuiyao Ancient Town. If you come here again in the future, this homestay is the first choice.

The parking lot is conveniently close, and they were very thoughtful, asking if we needed a pick-up or drop-off service. The third-floor balcony is an excellent spot for photos. From the room's balcony, you can enjoy a picturesque view of quaint bridges and flowing water, which is incredibly relaxing.

I usually do not choose homestay when other modes are available. However in Yunshuiyao homestay is the only choice. Given that 1949 has to preserve the local architecture do not expect 5 star hotel facilities. For all the constraints of a ”min su” the staff do go the distance to ensure they meet the demands of guests. I checked out a happy guest and will recommend 1949 to other travelers.

The room was spotless and very clean. I heard they're switching from Crowne Plaza to their own brand, but honestly, the service hasn't changed at all; it's still highly recommendable. The front desk staff, especially the guy who checked me in, was super efficient. It really feels like the brand change hasn't impacted anything. It's a great hotel, highly recommend it, recommend it, recommend it!
