Everything was ok. Room was clean, with nice views and as depicted in the web. Staff is kind and helpful. You can ask them for advice to visit the main hotpots in Datong. But bear in mind that this is an b&b with no proper reception desk. You need to contact the property in advance, or go to the liquor shop next door otherwise. The hotel does not provide real towels but disposable towels (made of paper).
Response from Property: Dear customer, hello! We are extremely grateful for your support and recognition of our store. Your satisfaction is the driving force that keeps us moving forward. We look forward to your next visit!

The receptionist is awesome, she gave us all instructions for good restaurants and the public transportation to go to the attractions. The location is great. But they don’t offer real towels, just disposable towels.
Response from Property: Dear guest, thank you for your feedback. The towels and bath towels in our room are all disposable. Nowadays, many tourists prefer to use disposable items when traveling, so we only provide disposable products in our rooms. We appreciate your recognition. Welcome to visit Datong again! 😊

What a great room.
The service is great, hostesses are responsive and kind.
The room was clean and luminous, and the best was soft, we both slept very well.
We enjoyed the table at breakfast and at dinner.
We highly recommend you to chose this hotel.

Incredibly clean and well kept. Super comfy bed and amazing views. All fantastic, honestly. Perhaps the one thing I disliked was the lack of proper towels but rather single-use, disposable towels which didn't particularly help drying after showering.
Response from Property: We are very glad to learn that you have highly praised our facilities, hygiene and environment. We will continue to strive to maintain and improve the quality in these aspects.

Excellent stay and location near Datong ancient city wall with a lot of food options nearby (must try the sliced noodles, local specialty). Great place to rest after visiting all of the nearby attractions and walking all day. The room is very clean, spacious, bright and well equipped. Additional bonus is that you don’t have to carry a key around since the doors are equipped with combination locks that are customized for your stay. I recommend this hotel and would return on a future trip.
Note: There is no front desk or reception and the rooms are spread out in a large multi-story building. Make sure to get in contact with the hotel once you arrive and the manager will meet you at the lobby and take you to your room. If you don’t speak Chinese, having a translation app is also useful.
Response from Property: Dear Guests: Hello! We are extremely grateful for your support and positive feedback to our hotel. All that we do is to provide every customer with a vacation-like experience. Seeing your satisfaction and approval really moves us deeply. We will continue to strive and are always ready for your return at any time. We sincerely welcome your next stay.

Good, clean, comfortable, 10 minutes walk from the ancient walls. The center is in the northern side, so you will need to walk other 10 minutes, it's a nice walk. Easily reachable from the south train station
Response from Property: Thank you for choosing us. We will continuously improve our products and enhance our service quality to provide you with an excellent experience. This has always been our goal for this small business. We are grateful for your recognition. We will definitely keep working hard and live up to your praise!

We had a pleasant stay at Xinyue homestay. A bit hard to find at first, but once you find it and get in touch with the receptionist, everything is fine. The receptionist and her colleague were very helpful trying to meet our needs. The building looks a bit sketchy from the outside but the rooms are clean and top notch. Some of them even have a laundry machine. The little downside is that they provide disposable towels which are too thin and small to wipe off all the water after a shower. Nevertheless, I would recommend this place and would probably stay there again.
Response from Property: Hello, thank you for your review. We are really happy to see your approval. Regarding the disposable bath towels, we have made some improvements for foreign tourists. Our service philosophy is to make every customer satisfied. We look forward to your next stay at the Ancient City Xinyue Homestay. We will continue to improve and get better and better. Welcome to come again for fun 😊

We had a great stay in Datong and the apartment was very nice, quite big and very clean. It was a little bit of a search when getting to the accommodation. Best to reach out beforehand, they are very communicative! The location is fine, close to restaurants, malls, public transport and the walled city. I did not like the disposable towels.. Using a towel once and throwing it out instead of washing it? Seems old fashioned and not sustainable. Overall a good stay and a great view!
Response from Property: Thank you very much for your thoughtful evaluation. Time is long, space is limited and affection is unlimited. Your satisfaction is our driving force. In this small world, we are willing to be your most solid backing, no matter when and where, the warmth is always in. We have also received your suggestion, because considering the cleanliness and hygiene, our rooms are equipped with disposable bath towels, welcome you to choose Xinyue again, I wish you a happy life, good luck always!

The room was very clean and with all amenities needed. The service was very nice and people were super polite. The location is good, it is not in the ancient city but you can easily reach it by bus in 10 minutes or walking about 20-30 minutes. The price/quality ratio was great! Highly recommended!
Response from Property: Nothing is more powerful than your words of praise and satisfaction! Thank you for your kind review. We look forward to your next visit.

The location is perfect, right in the city centre, they personnel is also nice. The cons are that the water pressure is really really low, it makes it very hard to take shower.
Response from Property: Estimados clientes, lo siento, lo siento por lo sucedido. Debemos informar inmediatamente al departamento de mantenimiento para comprobar si la presión del agua es normal en la habitación, y también rectificarla de inmediato. Gracias por la sugerencia y decir lo siento de nuevo. ¡Bienvenido a volver y disfrute de su vida!
