"Catching the tail end of the summer holidays, I compared a few guesthouses and finally opted for Changliushanju. While the 1700 price point felt a bit steep, its natural setting by the mountains and water was undoubtedly stunning, and the air even carried the scent of the fields.
As for the environment, it's quite good for a guesthouse. With over 100 rooms, it’s not a chain, yet many of its facilities are designed to chain standards. Unfortunately, the staffing seemed inadequate; cleaning was very slow. There's also a gym, but it has limited equipment and confusing signage, so I had to wander around just to figure things out. On the bright side, the front desk service was excellent. The young gentleman in the lobby was particularly enthusiastic. My car tire went flat right as I entered the property, and he helpfully provided a contact number and carried my bags to the room.
However, the room still had a faint, rather overwhelming musty smell, clearly indicating dampness.
The restaurant's food was decent overall. The passion fruit ribs, however, were served cold, and after being fried, the ribs themselves were particularly tough. The sweet and sour flavor was acceptable. The roast chicken and stir-fried beef were quite good and paired well with rice.
I also noticed that the complimentary bedtime sweet soup mentioned on Xiaohongshu was nowhere to be found. And the farewell gift after check-out had apparently been downgraded to just small cookies?
Given the inflated price, I doubt I'll be staying here again."
