An objective evaluation from a Ctrip Black Diamond, loyal fan of luxury hotels + high-end B&Bs in Jiangsu and Zhejiang:
advantage:
1. The location is superior, the view is good, and it is suitable for self-driving accommodation;
2. The architectural aesthetics is very good, but without some art skills, it is impossible to design this building;
3. In addition to the guest room area, there is also a coffee and afternoon tea area, a craft beer area, a flower room, and an open-air KTV. The elements of urban life are moved to the mountains, making the B&B life full and atmospheric.
insufficient:
1. Maybe it’s because the mountains are relatively humid and there are millipedes (small millipedes, about the same length as a girl’s hand and as thick as a little finger) lying all over the ground. People who are used to living in the city are quite scared when they see so many for the first time. This insect is even four-dimensional. He crawled into the house through a crack in the door, and once he actually climbed on the feet of his teammates. A man was reading a book on the sofa at night and suddenly screamed... Countless crawlers were visible to the naked eye in the corners of various public areas of the B&B. Different shapes and postures are squirming or curling up. When I think about it, my scalp is numb. Every night I worry that it will crawl into bed while I am asleep. I can only use paper towels and slipper bags to block the cracks in the door before going to bed. (After searching on Baidu, it turns out that cement ash and realgar wine can actually repel insects.) A few days ago, when I stayed at Lanting Anlu in Shaoxing and climbed Yangming Cave, I saw a few mossy stone steps climbing up, but this B&B is just like Malu Lao Chao. Like, ridiculously many.
2. The breakfast for three consecutive days is exactly the same set meal. The quantity is enough and the quality is not bad. However, it is difficult not to get tired of eating the same thing for three consecutive days. There are no surprises every day. The waiter is very formal. When the food is brought to the table, if you want to drink milk, you need to go to the side to get it. The waiter will not proactively remind you. It is a completely passive service. When you go to ask for the vinegar dish, you see that there is still milk.
3. I live in a loft, and the price per night is 2,000+, and 1,500+ on non-holidays. To be honest, in the Xianju area, the unit price is almost the most expensive. The price directly determines the expectations of the guests, but The hardware equipment in the guest room is indeed not up to the price level. There is no smart hardware and everything is very simple (maybe the hotel will say that we are following the minimalist luxury style, but in fact, smartness does not match the business style concept. conflict, but the handling and attention to details), for example, if men’s feet are larger than size 42, the slippers may be too tight to wear. For the toiletries, I can only silently take out the samples I brought with me and boil them in a hot water kettle. The water was lukewarm, so my traditional Chinese medicine bag couldn't be heated. The tea leaves brewed in the teapot on the first day were not processed until check-out on the third day... Forget it, the service is beyond expectation. On the third day of my stay, I drove through the door. We were also stopped by the staff, who thought we were strangers breaking into the hotel. They asked us what we were doing here with a cold face. We were told that we were staying at the hotel, and asked if we had checked in. Well, it’s okay if we don’t recognize our faces. Weird. We don’t look distinctive…
4. The open-air KTV is a very magical existence. I sang from about six o'clock in the evening to about nine o'clock in the evening. I listened to the tuneless songs being shouted for three consecutive nights. The noise spread in the valley, and I couldn't block it even if I closed the windows and doors. The person is high, but the ears of the guests living with me are really suffering. Forget it, I will sacrifice my purity, and everyone will be happy... After all, human happiness and sadness are often incompatible with each other.
other:
1. Dinner is 210 per person with a meal plan. I didn’t eat it. There are several restaurants nearby that are actually pretty good. The average price per person is just over 100. It’s very comfortable to eat.
2. A cup of coffee here costs 48, which is at the level of Albica in Shanghai. The store may focus on high consumption in a natural style.
3. I don’t know whether it was due to too many bugs or hygienic reasons, but my skin kept itching for a few days. Fortunately, I brought Avène ad cream and dermatitis ointment with me and applied them for a few days to help. People with allergies should be careful when staying here.
4. I don’t know whether the staff here think their wages are too low or their work is too boring. During my stay, I never saw their smiling faces. I felt that they were not in a good mood at work, and they would not take the initiative to say hello when they met each other. , not to mention taking the initiative to ask about the check-in experience. There was no greeting until check-out and departure. They only asked me to pay for the coffee, and then no one was seen.
4. In the past few years, I have stayed in many B&Bs with a unit price of 1,500-5,000. In fact, my requirements for accommodation are not high. 30 to 90 points are within the daily safe range that I am too lazy to write a review. Therefore, Xianju should be honest. Stay at the Hilton or Kaiyuan Hotel next door.
5. When you live here, you can really feel the owner's pursuit of artistic aesthetics, but don't forget that you are running a B&B for accommodation purposes, not a 3A tourist attraction. Victory is in the details and defeat is in the details.
