「Large modern room with comfortable bed and separate bathtub & shower. Quiet location. Staff do not speak English, which is typical even for Western branded hotels in China. My room smelled a bit like sulfur, strongest near the toilet, but common areas did not. Air conditioner did not work. When reported to front desk, the complaint was met with a shrug. A bit of a walk from the historic area, but a gated walkway serves as a shortcut. 」
「It was a lovely stay at a local residence just by the river and main bridge. The decor was very tasteful. We loved walking along both sides of the river and exploring. No English was spoken but my daughter speaks Chinese so this wasn’t an issue. Local breakfast of noodles and egg. It was charming.」
