“Charming guesthouse with helpful staff and very clean rooms”
The guesthouse has a traditional Chinese design, creating a serene and authentic atmosphere. The staff were very helpful and could speak English, making communication easy. There is no lift, but they assisted me with my luggage, and the building is only two floors, so it was not a problem. The room was very clean and well-equipped, with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The area around the guesthouse is lively, full of restaurants, and there is a huge local market nearby where you can buy almost anything. Overall, it was a very good deal for the price I paid.

“Delightful accommodation”
What we liked about this accommodation: Very helpful and hardworking staff members Lin and Pan. The location and free train station shuttle service. Spotlessly cleaned large room and tastefully presented essentials. Large comfortable bed and pillows. Near by local market was a bonus and the surrounding area was full of eateries. Highly recommended.
