The first trip after the epidemic was planned too late. I didn’t look for where to go until mid-April, and finally decided to go to Shengsi, which is not far from Shanghai. After seeing that Ctrip’s private tours are relatively expensive, there’s no need to do so. Dianping directly contacted the owner of this 8cm B&B via WeChat to book a room, and there was an employee price! In addition, WeChat can also be used to inquire about ticket booking and other matters, which is very convenient.
1. Location: In the middle of the island, close to Nanchangchang Beach, a 3-minute walk to the beach. Just outside the door is Gaochang Bay Seafood Street, and it is not far from Left Bank Highway, Liujingtan, Donghai Fishing Village on the east side, and Jihu Beach on the west side. It takes less than 20 minutes to take a taxi from the pier.
2. Room: Newly renovated in 2021, with light luxury style and a bathtub. The Blue Cursor Parent-child Room I booked is on the fourth floor. Although it is not on the beach side, it has a large terrace with a view facing the beach, which is very good! The room also comes with fruit and chrysanthemum tea
3. Breakfast: White porridge and side dishes with hard-boiled eggs, tea eggs and various kinds of steamed buns. There is no limit to the amount. Although it is not as good as the hotel buffet breakfast, it is simple and affordable, and it is more comfortable to eat. The original reservation only included two breakfasts, but when I asked how much it would cost to add one, the boss upgraded it to three breakfasts for free.
4. Shopping: There is a small supermarket on the ground floor. It is very convenient to buy some mineral water, snacks, beer, cigarettes and so on. Just go downstairs.
5. Check-out: We only got the bus and boat tickets at 18:00 pm on May 2, so we stayed in the room until the taxi arrived at almost five o'clock before checking out. This check-out policy is much more liberal than that of the hotel. This is the advantage of B&B.
6. Some suggestions: There is only 1 socket between the two beds. It is a bit inconvenient for two people to use mobile phones and electronics at night. It would be better to set up 2 sockets. Beach shoes with holes are not good and can easily carry mud and sand, so flat-soled shoes are better. Indoor slippers are too thin. Replacing them with thicker ones can improve the quality and experience. The solar hot water starts to turn a little yellow, so it would be better to remind every guest in advance to put some water in first. You can ask the guest in advance if the room and bathroom garbage bags need to be cleaned. Of course, I brought them downstairs by myself and didn't mind too much. There are a few countertops in the room, and some things can only be piled on the floor. Also, this terrace with unparalleled views can be arranged well! I sat on the terrace and stared at the sea in a daze, not wanting to leave.
Three generations of the landlady's family have been operating this B&B. There is still a sign for "Seafood Private Kitchen" at the door. After chatting with the landlady, I learned that the original seafood stall in the yard has no plans to open for the time being because it does not want to disturb the tenants upstairs and there is insufficient manpower after the epidemic. . 8cm Inn is one of the hundreds of B&Bs on Shengsi Island. It is ordinary among the vast number of B&Bs, but meeting them is fate. Although I don’t know if I will have the opportunity to come to Shengsi in the future. I hope that the business of 8cm will be prosperous in the future. The better.
