James Joyce Coffetel Xingcheng Beach Juehuadao Wharf Branch

Facilities: Well-equipped Cleanliness: Spotless Ambiance: Spacious and bright Service: Warm and attentive Parking is convenient, and you can enjoy the sea breeze from your room's balcony. In the morning, I watched the boats departing for Juehua Island. I then went downstairs for a walk in Juhuanv Seashore Park and explored Sanjiao Lansheng.

The hotel's location is fantastic, right by the Xingcheng ferry terminal. Rooms on the east side offer a unique experience, allowing you to see the pier and sunrise directly from your bed. The hotel itself is a renovation of an older private hotel (only floors 6-9 were renovated; floors 1-5 remain at a guesthouse-like standard). It seems to have later joined a brand, and the overall renovation definitely aligns with the brand's standards. However, since it's an older hotel, some hardware components appear dated, possibly due to poor maintenance or not being fully replaced. Objectively, the cleanliness was also just average; it didn't hold up to close inspection, which was a bit disappointing. While the room view was excellent, the room size was quite small. The hotel breakfast is priced at 28/person, and it was decent, offering good value for the price. The hotel's location is superb, with plenty of seafood restaurants and street stalls downstairs, making dining and walks along the beach very convenient. The hotel has a private enclosed parking lot, but it seems to be shared with two or three other hotels, and cars heading to the beach and pier also park there, so parking can be quite tight during peak season. We visited during the fishing ban, so the fishing boats at the pier couldn't go out, meaning we weren't bothered by noise. While hotel prices rise significantly during holidays, if you visit during the off-season, none of the issues I mentioned would be a problem.

The receptionist was wonderful, beautiful and kind-hearted ☺️. My family wanted a room with a sea view, and she upgraded us for free! Awesome! 🎉

The hotel is very close to the pier, making it ideal for enjoying sea views and overlooking the entire seaside area. It has a private courtyard with ample parking, and there are many restaurants and supermarkets nearby. The hotel staff are professional, welcoming, and provide attentive service. Upon check-in, the female receptionist upgraded my room free of charge, and upon check-out, she helped store my luggage and provided bottled water. The rooms were clean, hygienic, and fully equipped.

Xiao Meng at the front desk provided excellent service, and the stay was pleasant. The room was warm, close to the sea, and you could watch the sunrise.

Xiao Meng provided excellent service, the room was warm, and it had a sea view.

1. The renovation was scheduled for 2025, but the cabinet shelves in the room are cracked. 2. The bathroom is practically unusable; a shower almost floods the entire bathroom. 3. I booked a plumbing service around 10 PM the day before for 7 AM the next morning, but when I called to follow up at 8 AM the next day, they said the maintenance worker was changing clothes and would be late... 4. No more Zhefei options on future itineraries.
