Great location, walking distance to many attractions and restaurants. Room was clean, no cigarette smell. Very helpful staff and easy communication via WeChat. We appreciated the private driver recommendation to visit Xuankong Temple and other sights, it was very convenient and affordable. We recommend this hotel and would stay here again.

Our overall experience in the hotel was excellent. It's location is very convenient, next to touristic areas and restaurants. The rooms are clean, the shower was perfect, and the attention was very warm. We would definitely recommend it.

I had a great stay at this very centraly lokated place in Datong. Friendly staff that helped me with some small problems.
Response from Property: Fate brought us together, and the ancient city brought us together. Every word of your praise is an affirmation of the work of our inn and staff! Time flies, and I hope that one day in the near future we can meet again in the ancient city and at Lechaoju!

Great location. Only 5 mins walk to the HuaYan Temple entrance. Plenty restaurant nearby. 老柴knife-cut noodle just nearby (like their fried noodle). Famous SiewMai LJX also 7mins walk away.
代王府Just 10mins away. Bus stop just right in front of the hotel. Very convenient.
Room is small, especially I carrying a M size check-in luggage. Found a space to place and open my luggage. But lucky I was alone without companion or another luggage. But just nice for me, small room but cozy.
Customer service is very good. They are helpful provided me some tips to tour around the city. Even recommend me rent public bicycle. I was having so much fun in Datong thanks to this hotel friendly customer services.
Response from Property: Beautiful time, someone's eyes will be met inadvertently, and the boating in the words, this time I met you unexpectedly. Thank you for this fate, we will cherish it even more and look forward to seeing you next time! Wish you: well

Perfect location, friendly and helpful staff, very clean and comfortable room, perfect stay!
Response from Property: This is the most beautiful encounter, just like after a long wait, we met just when the sun was shining and the breeze was rising. Simple language, without gorgeous decoration, is really full of touching. As long as we can bring you a comfortable environment and stay experience, we will be satisfied! I wish you peace and joy forever, everything goes well, good luck always comes, and you will be happy forever!
