Facilities: There is no TV, everything is very simple, so simple that I don’t know what to say, I can only hehehe🤭
Service: For a room priced at RMB 600, we were not given two bottles of mineral water if we wanted to. They also said that their Dongjiang water was very famous and asked us to boil water from the tap and drink it ourselves.
The B&B is located not far from the scenic spot. I can understand that it is expensive, but the facilities are not up to par with the price, so I am very angry. There is no hot water for bathing, the water is very small, and there is no notice that the hot water supply of the B&B is broken. My friend I took a cold shower and screamed when I came out. I thought the hot water was not hot enough. After waiting for half an hour, there was still no hot water. When I asked, I found out that it was broken! ! It was said that it was repaired, but in fact there was no hot water in the room. Once the valve was closed and opened again, there was no hot water. Anyway, the experience is very bad! We lived on the first floor, and there was still a pile of garbage outside the room window. I have never stayed in such a bad B&B.
Also! Don’t eat there on both sides of the lake outside the B&B! Very unpalatable

Response from Property: 1/The sudden water outage is indeed our fault, and we sincerely apologize to you! We also explained and apologized to the guests who asked about us that day. It is true that after the Zixing flood, the river water became turbid and there were more impurities in the tap water. The filter screen of our water inlet pipe was blocked and was not discovered in time, resulting in insufficient hot water in the hot water tank. We discovered the problem around 9:30 pm on August 31. It was dealt with promptly and the hot water supply was completely restored around 10:30. Then based on the current actual situation, we cleaned the water tank again on September 1st and added a pre-filter, and arranged regular inspections by staff, so that this problem will not happen again in the future! After all, our hotel has been in operation for many years before such a situation occurred. It is our fault that we lack experience in handling it. We apologize again! 2/ Regarding the room type, this room with 2 bedrooms, 1 living room and 1 bathroom is equipped with 1 1.8-meter double bed room and 2 1.5-meter double bed rooms. The standard configuration is 4 bottles of mineral water and 4 pairs of slippers; appropriate and easy to consume. We have satisfied you with all the products. It may be that the housekeeper did not satisfy your mineral water needs unlimitedly. 3/Room configuration. Our suite on the first floor does not have a TV. We have clearly stated the room configuration. If you mind this, please choose carefully. Speaking of price, a suite that accommodates 6 people does not deviate from the market price, and the online booking time and the network level of the booker will have a great impact on the price. I want to see the guests who reviewed it open your Ctrip to see You can understand what I mean by looking at the price of this proud suite.

Sincerely! Sincerely! Sincerely! I recommend this famous hotel! I live in a duplex room. The simple retro decoration is full of the atmosphere of tea culture. The style is simple and exquisite, as if I am in an ancient inn. Of course, the most basic hygiene is not ambiguous at all, clean and tidy. What I like most is the tea room setting, which not only provides a series of selected teas, but also professional tea art services, which makes people really feel the spirit and culture of tea. In addition, the hotel's service is also very thoughtful, and the staff is friendly and helpful, which makes me feel at home. Like
(。ò ∀ ó。). I saw many young ladies wearing Hanfu to check in and take pictures, but it’s a pity that they are not girls. It’s quite convenient to travel. After all, it’s less than 300 meters away from Xiaodongjiang!

I recommend everyone to come to this homestay. The front desk lady is super considerate. When checking in, she explained all the precautions clearly, and! Hanfu enthusiasts can rent free Hanfu for taking photos here, and they only need to pay a deposit! The decoration of the homestay is very distinctive and antique. The room price is very affordable and cost-effective. There is a mural on the roof with a strong artistic atmosphere. The bed is super soft. The aunt cleans very cleanly. If you need it, call the front desk. The efficiency is very high. If something is missing, it will be delivered immediately. The best thing is that it only takes five minutes to walk from the No. 1 Courtyard to the entrance of the scenic area to Dongjiang Lake to see the foggy Xiaodongjiang! The foggy Xiaodongjiang is really beautiful and worth the trip. There are also many additional activities such as brewing tea around the stove, etc. Tea art lovers are blessed! You can also taste the local specialty tea in this homestay, which is full of mellow fragrance.

Response from Property: In April and May, our store will promote this year's new tea, Zixing Dongjiang Lake specialty "Gunaogong" tea, and everyone is invited to taste it for free! "Gunaogong" is a green tea produced in Gunao Mountain, Tangxi Town, Zixing. The output is very small. The boss's uncle planted a few acres of it in his hometown, and every year he would share some with the tea-loving friends who stay in our tea culture theme hotel!

The location is very convenient! It only takes 5 minutes to walk from the Xiaodongjiang ticket gate. The whole hotel is antique, and there are many details in the display. The photo output rate is very high. I saw many girls who went there to check in and take photos😆
The room is well maintained, clean and comfortable. It is a very surprising exquisite B&B.

Old guests come to check in again! This time I brought my family to Dongjiang Lake. After a long journey, I still feel most comfortable staying in this homestay. Coming back is like going home. The boss added a new tea-making project. The family sat together to make tea and chat, and the children fed the fish, and spent an afternoon. It happened that there were motorcycles staying, and the little girl was fascinated!
Hygiene: As always, clean and tidy, very reassuring.
Location: Just at the entrance, it takes a few minutes to walk, which is very friendly for families.

Response from Property: As an old shop, it is really happy and honored to see you bring your children here! This is the happiness of running a B&B. There are many stories to tell with guests, and we can also become one of the stories!

Because it was a weekday during the off-season, and seeing that I was with my child, the boss upgraded my room for free. Thank you so much! I really like No. 1 Courtyard, haha! I like the style, culture, and service. My children like it here too. Because of this hotel, I want to check in Chenzhou again and check in Dongjiang Lake again~

Thinking of getting up early to go to Dongjiang Lake, I looked for accommodation nearby. I didn't expect to find such a good B&B. We drove here and contacted the front desk directly to ask about the parking lot. The B&B does not have its own parking lot, so we have to park in the museum's parking lot, but fortunately the fee is not high, 20 yuan for 24 hours.
As soon as we entered the lobby, we smelled the fragrance of sweet potatoes. The front desk warmly invited us to eat roasted sweet potatoes. The local sweet potatoes roasted on charcoal were so fragrant. Even if I had eaten, I wanted to have another fragrant and sweet sweet potato. The service was great.
The layout of the lobby is very Chinese style, and you can also drink local specialty tea. The key is that it is free, which is great value for money! The most interesting thing is that there is also a canal in the lobby, where many koi are raised, with the artistic conception of winding water flowing! It's so ingenious!
Our room was on the second floor, and our luggage was a bit heavy, but luckily there was an elevator, which reduced our burden a lot. The room was clean and tidy without any odor, and there were free dried fish snacks and fruits, which are also local specialties. I originally thought that many services would be discounted because it was a mobile home, but here I felt a lot of warmth. The small ornaments in the room were very cute and had a cultural atmosphere. The loft we stayed in was downstairs and the lobby was upstairs for rest. The space was large and comfortable!

It has been raining in Hunan in March. I wanted to go out and have fun while the weather was good. I recently saw a lot of travel in Chenzhou, so I planned to spend two days in Chenzhou. I just found this homestay.
We were not familiar with the tourism here, but we met the owner of the homestay in the store on the day of our stay. We asked about the more distinctive projects here. She recommended that we drive around the lake or rent a small electric donkey to bask in the sun by the lake when the weather was good. She also took out a map and explained the navigation route to us carefully. She also recommended that we go to another store called Xiyan to rest after arriving at Bailang, drink tea for free, stay in one store and enjoy the services of two stores, and there is such a detailed free tour guide service, which can be said to be very in place.
The overall layout and design of the homestay are very cultural, and it can be seen that they are usually carefully maintained and operated. The room is also very clean and tidy, and the bathroom is separated into dry and wet areas, which is great! It is much more convenient than many hotels!
There are also free Chinese costumes for taking photos and checking in in the store. The combination of Chinese costumes and the Chinese style scenery in the lobby makes the photos very good! In the afternoon, we also experienced brewing tea around the stove. The free set meal also came with roasted sweet potatoes, red dates, peanuts, melon seeds, local mandarin oranges and snacks. It was so satisfying! The local tea is also delicious. It is pure natural tea that the boss personally collected in the countryside!
I am very happy to live in such a good homestay this time. In the future, I will have another choice for accommodation besides hotels. The cultural atmosphere of the homestay is really enjoyable~

There is a fireside tea-making area in the lobby on the first floor, and a leisure area on the third floor with billiards, table tennis, and swings
It is 500 to 600 meters away from the Dongjiang Lake Scenic Area. The parking lot of the scenic area is very large and you can reach the hotel in two steps

The hotel is located in Xiaodongjiang Scenic Area. 24-hour parking is 20 yuan, and the store refunded us the parking fee after check-out. We stayed in room 1306, and there was a big pipe facing the room. When we opened the door, the whole room was filled with the smell of oil smoke. The fruits for cooking tea around the stove were rotten, and there were relatively few Hanfu costumes. The hygiene was OK.

Response from Property: Thank you for helping us find the problem. We sincerely apologize to you. We must admit our mistakes! For this reason, we will immediately carry out service quality rectification to prevent this situation from happening again. The original intention was to provide guests with free local specialty fruits, but we did the wrong thing instead. We apologize again! The national style clothing is free for guests to wear for taking photos. Maybe there are more guests who borrow it during the Spring Festival!
