The location is very far from the tourist center. There are construction sites everywhere and the air is full of dust. The hotel is right next to the construction site. The dust is very heavy and the construction is very noisy, just like the joke Zhou Qimo told. The space capsule is not well ventilated when closed, but it is very noisy outside when opened, which is a dilemma. The public shower room and squat toilet are together, which is very narrow and you can't move around.

Response from Property: Hello, the website shows it's 2 kilometers from the visitor center. Do you think there will be any B&Bs inside? Also, Sayram Lake is under construction, and there's always dust all over the construction site. Without it, you'd probably have to take a two-hour drive to Yining or Bole, a four-hour round trip. Besides, we're in the busiest commercial district of Phase 1, with everything from food, accommodation, entertainment, and medical care right here. Since you're traveling on foot and booked an affordable capsule, we're very friendly.

It was my first time staying in a space capsule, and the experience was fantastic. It was clean, roommates didn't bother each other, and the shared facilities were convenient. The sleep was quiet, and the sense of security was truly wonderful. The security guard was awesome, and the hostess was also very nice, helping with my luggage. The hostess also helped me get a ride-hailing card for the next day, so I could go out without a hitch. A friend even helped me take some stargazing photos in the parking lot. Everything was great! I sincerely hope your business prospers, and that you'll have a steady flow of customers.

A garden-view twin room cost over 1,000 yuan a night, with 800 yuan for the location.
There was construction going on right in front of the window, so where was the garden view? There was no elevator, and a security guard worked incredibly hard carrying guests' luggage. He even brought us new pillows. Five stars for him. The faucets in the room were dirty, the shower water was lukewarm, there was no air conditioning, there were flies, and the aromatherapy oils in the room had dried up. We were placed at the stairwell, and the noise from people and luggage coming in and out was unbearable!!!

Response from Property: First, you know the importance of location. Transportation here is inconvenient, both in terms of labor and material resources. Everything is brought here by sheer force and price. Each hotel room type has a name, like the idea of "wife cake" with "wife" in it. There's no elevator or air conditioning. B&B amenities are clearly listed, but most B&Bs are quite low-end. Saihu B&B doesn't even have an elevator. There's no air conditioning in any of the B&Bs or hotels in Saihu. The temperature is only 5-6 degrees Celsius at night and around 10-15 degrees Celsius during the day. The wind is incredibly strong, and even with just a few windows open, it's freezing cold inside. Some rooms have thermoelectric floor heating for sleeping. As for the water temperature, Saihu's water isn't scalding hot. It's heated with ice water from Sailimu Lake, while our hotel uses air-circulated hot water, keeping the temperature around 50-55 degrees Celsius. Finally, I wish you a pleasant trip to Xinjiang.

The space capsule is clean and tidy, with complete facilities. There's also a shared shower area with laundry detergent and shower gel, which is fantastic! University students can save a lot of money staying here! The front desk was also very welcoming, which was a big plus!

I highly recommend this space capsule for girls! The cabin is spotless, and the quality is evident in every detail, so even people with a mysophobia can feel at ease staying here. Laundry rooms, dryers and other equipment are all available, making it easy to solve the problem of washing clothes during travel. From the warm and professional reception at the front desk to the thoughtful and considerate service, everything makes people feel warm. Whether it is a stopover during travel or a temporary stay, it is an excellent choice!

The space capsule is clean and sanitary, with a table, kettle and so on. I stayed here for two nights. The food in the store is also delicious. One person per cabin, very hidden! The structure of the store is very good, the facilities are complete, the front desk service is also very enthusiastic, and the stay is very pleasant.

The space capsule is very hot and stuffy. The fans inside are useless and are just for decoration. They are relatively quiet.

Response from Property: Dear travelers, first of all, thank you for choosing our homestay. The space capsule is a capsule room. It is more friendly and approachable for travelers traveling alone in Sailimu Lake. There are lights and two exhaust fans in the cabin. The room is also equipped with a fresh air system and ventilation. Only by recognizing your own shortcomings and correcting them can you keep moving forward. I hope that when you return to the beautiful Xinjiang again, you can give Xiaosai Homestay a chance to witness its correction and growth! Finally, I wish you a happy life, peace and joy!

Every city has its own reasons to be missed, every season has its own unforgettable scenery, and every hotel has its own sweet and warm memories. I hope that Sai Keli B&B will be the warmest and most unique one in your memory! The bath and bedding of this hotel are all customized, soft and comfortable. They are washed and disinfected by a professional company every day and changed for each guest. Please feel free to use them.

I hope that the majority of travelers will come to experience it, and the hotel owner will introduce it to friends staying in this store to eat and taste delicious food. Come back to Sai Keli B&B often! I wish you a smooth work and all the best! ! !

The room facilities were poorly designed. While the wet and dry areas were separated, the bathroom was so small that your knees would hit the glass wall when you sat down, and your head would hit your head when you stood up. The shower barely worked, making it impossible to shower. We had no choice but to skip it. After decades of traveling, this was the first time I'd encountered such a poor breakfast: just porridge, fried cakes, and pickles. Not to mention fruit, there wasn't even any vegetables.
