I was extremely satisfied with my stay at Shanyue during my trip to Wuyishan. Because it was the off-season, they upgraded me to a half-room room upon check-in. The day before yesterday, upon check-in, they provided a bottle of spring water for tea and two servings of their own rock tea.
Accommodation: The room was very spacious, a very open loft layout. The bathroom had a separate shower and toilet, one on each floor. The shower and bathtub were on the first floor, while the sink and toilet were on the second floor. It was very convenient for those staying upstairs. The room was very clean, with large floor-to-ceiling windows providing comfortable natural light, exactly as pictured on the official website. I also really liked the firmness of the mattress; it wasn't too soft, but provided excellent support, which was great for people with back problems. It was especially relaxing after a day of hiking.
Transportation: It's about 2 kilometers from the North Gate of Wuyishan Scenic Area and Sangu Old Street. A taxi costs 7 yuan, and you can also walk. The only downside of Wuyishan is the lack of shared transportation.
Food: Breakfast was simple but very satisfying. The steamed buns were homemade and had a great texture. The best food is concentrated in Sangu Old Street and the North Building of Dawang Peak, with various "must-eat" lists. Actually, the restaurants downstairs from the guesthouse, Ganlu Qiyangcai and Laonongfu, are also delicious. They're local favorites, without the hype, and I felt they tasted better than the various listed restaurants on Sangu Old Street. Finally, I want to praise the owners. The shop is run by a brother and sister, both very kind. They have their own tea garden and tea factory, and they also sell their own Wuyi rock tea. When I left, I bought some Wuyi rock tea, and the sister even gave me some snacks. We had to leave at 6:30 am for the morning bamboo rafting trip, and they thoughtfully arranged for the auntie to cook noodles at 6:10 am – a very considerate and warm guesthouse. I would definitely stay here again next time.
