Maosao Inn

This hotel has a great atmosphere, and even features a pool, though it's only open from 3 PM to 9 PM. The most stunning feature is the rooftop observation deck, offering panoramic views of Wulingyuan and the surrounding mountains. However, the rooms themselves leave a lot to be desired; the hotel is definitely in need of a renovation and interior updates. Some rooms face the pool, while others, like mine, just look out onto the staircase leading to the upper floors. The room appeared larger in the photos than it was in reality. The hotel breakfasts are decent; you can grab a bite from 7 AM to 9 AM before heading out for a hike in the mountains. The location isn't ideal for the East Gate, though, as you'll have to walk almost entirely through the town for 15-20 minutes or take a taxi. On the bright side, the hotel is surrounded by plenty of shops and restaurants.

The hotel is good, it has a pool and a tasty breakfast. However, I would pay more attention to cleanliness. The elevator glass and walls need a good wash. If you can overlook that, everything else is excellent. The hosts are hospitable, they'll help with excursions, buy tickets, and book taxis. Dear hosts, please do a deep clean, paint the walls, and scrub the floors, and your place will be even better! 👍

The warmest guesthouse I've ever stayed in! The service was incredibly thoughtful; they provided breakfast every morning and even helped us plan our sightseeing routes and book tickets. I'll definitely come back if I get the chance!
