Find Hotel with a Concierge in Hudongshui Scenic Area

"Well, even considering the low price (for western standards) I felt this hotel is below the sufficiency bar. It was built as a holiday grand hotel but poor maintenance make it au par to hostels and 2 stars hotel. Worn out carpet, smoke stench and no heating - a part the noisy AC that doesn't quite make it - render the stay almost uncomfortable; the only good thing being a high pressure shower. Do not expect much help from the desk - english is not that common in China - and even cards payment...

"It's nice to be so close to the mountain so you can get it in and out easily. However the staff refused to call a taxi for us to get around town, instead forcing us to call their (unlicensed) friends, who of course charged significantly more. Clearly a racket to take advantage of foreigners and wildly unethical for any paid hotel staff. The manager said he would look into this."
