Songyang Hotels with Balcony

This B&B is truly stunning. From the moment I walked in, I was captivated by its warmth and comfort. The rooms are beautifully decorated, each revealing the owner's thoughtfulness and taste. The bed is soft and comfortable, and after a night there, I felt completely rejuvenated. The housekeeper was also attentive, welcoming, and non-intrusive. Best of all, there's a cat named Xiaoya who also lives here. I was very satisfied with my stay and highly recommend it!

The room is very clean and tidy, and the comfort is great. I have never slept outside with such comfortable pillows, mattresses and quilts. I chose the attic room on the third floor. The bed is facing the window, allowing direct sunlight and sufficient heating at night. The hot water in the bath is not too hot, the bath is a bit cold, and the shower is okay. The store also thoughtfully prepared some disposable towels, which is very thoughtful. It’s great for people like me who don’t use outside towels! The landlord and his wife are very down-to-earth, and they also eat in the store in the evening. The local village is very quiet, and the sunset is beautiful. It is suitable for relaxing and renovating on weekends. The B&B I stayed in was the best in the whole village, and the decoration was all wooden. It should be very comfortable to sleep in the attic and listen to the chirping of insects in the summer!

The guesthouse is located at the very top, with a fantastic view! The staff even helped with our luggage, which was a big plus! I highly recommend the breakfast; although it was a set meal, it was very plentiful, and I especially loved the noodles 👍. They also gave us three free travel photos taken by Yu Mo's studio – so thoughtful! The guesthouse also has an adorable dog and cat, hehe.

I didn't expect such a high-quality homestay in an ancient village. The boss is super enthusiastic Not only recommended the restaurant, there is invincible delicious local chicken soup, I'll make tea when I arrive. The homestay is a renovation of its own old house But the furniture is very good. What you see is what you get The environment of the small village is great Quiet and good to go shopping It should be good to play in the water in summer.

First off, this hotel is huge, almost like a scenic area itself! 😂 Many rooms even have their own terrace. If you have enough time, spending a whole day relaxing at the hotel, sipping tea or coffee, would be incredibly pleasant. So, the environment is definitely a big plus. And with supposedly 120 rooms, they clearly have substantial resources. We checked in on the 3rd, and the hotel was pretty much fully booked. It must be quite popular in that area. Honestly, for a hotel nestled in the mountains to maintain such a high standard of environment, they're probably one of the only ones. I have to say, the food at the hotel's restaurant was good, especially the slow-cooked salted chicken. It was even better than what I had later at a highly-rated restaurant in the county. My only minor suggestion would be for the dishes to come out a little faster. 😎 The room design isn't entirely flat, so the views from rooms on higher levels might be even better (though the lower levels aren't far behind). The rooms come with a bathtub and a balcony, with a floor-to-ceiling window offering a direct view of the mountains. It's truly delightful to feel so immersed in nature. Facilities and Services: There's a small convenience store within the resort that offers room delivery, which is a thoughtful touch. They also have a cafe and an infinity pool. If you plan on swimming, remember to bring your swimwear! There's also an open-air bakery where you can watch them bake bread. If you don't want to trek up and down, you can also buy from the cafe directly, and they'll send it up to you, offering more options. After all that, my final advice is to try to visit during off-peak times, because the value for money is absolutely fantastic!

The boss and the proprietress are both people of Yangjiatang, warm and thoughtful. The room is big enough, but it is still cold in winter, especially the meal is in the yard, the boss thoughtfully gave the brazier, the food is also very delicious, the facilities are slightly old, I don’t know if it is to cooperate with the atmosphere of the Chinese courtyard, if the room can be cleaned in time, it would be better.

After comparison, we chose to stay at the ”Yunhaijian Culture B&B” in Pingtian Village. It is named after the magnificent scenery of Pingtian Village for more than 200 days a year. This is a comfortable place to live in a tea room, coffee house, pottery and tie-dyeing handmade, and the mountain is outside the window. Miss Butler gave us a free upgrade to the deluxe double room ”Liushan”, the terrace is facing the grandfather's cat coffee shop, ”Grandpa's cat coffee” is a village cat coffee transformed from the village utility room, the store adopted more than a dozen stray kittens, here you can drink coffee, cats, ancient village scenery. Dinner at the ”Shanjiaqing Restaurant”, booked the dishes one day in advance, of which Xieli Tea Shi chicken stew uses Songyang rheumatized herbs, slow stew with local chicken, chicken soup is delicious, meat is tight and tender, is a famous dish for tonic medicine. The night in the mountains was surprisingly quiet, and almost no sound was heard. The black silhouettes in the mountains were left in the distance. The yellow walls of the cottage, the stone steps of the small courtyard, and the wooden windows of the coffee shop were reflected in the warm yellow lights, and the light and shadow were mottled, like a broken star. Looking up, there is no world noise, and the lights and the night are gentle. The whole ancient village of ”Yun Shangpingtian” sank into a peaceful sleep. I walked on the stone steps, listened to the mountain breeze gently across the eaves, and felt the coolness and quietness of the ancient village at night! The next day, the housekeeper also sent a souvenir Dragon Boat Festival tea! Recommend this homestay!

The location of the B&B is OK. It takes only 20 minutes to get there after getting off the highway. It is located in the tea fields. The air is fresh. There is a cycling path next to it for walking. Cyclists can rent a bicycle. The service is very good. When we arrived at the location, they helped us arrange a parking space, helped us carry the luggage, and invited us to drink tea. The bad thing is that the room is not soundproof. People on the second floor can hear every move upstairs. In fact, there is no big noise upstairs, but it is clear, footsteps, talking... I hope it can be improved. The window glass is almost soundproof. People passing by outside can hear the slightest sound clearly... The window glass should be single-layer glass. I suggest that the boss change it to double-layer later, at least it will be better... The sanitation is OK, the room is still quite clean, and there is plenty of hot water in the bathroom.

The room is too small, not as big as the 32 square meters introduced in the picture, I am very surprised that there is a bedside aisle for one person. And there is no door in the bathroom, and the humidity is all facing the bed after the shower. The parking space is at the door of the hotel, and there are two parking spaces in the hotel, which is quite difficult to stop. This is the biggest slot. Secondly, we went to the store and asked where the parking space was. The two waiters were estimated to be from the opposite restaurant, and said that we would run opposite the door and we didn't care. Fortunately, the decoration of the homestay has characteristics, and there is a balcony. Sitting there for tea at night, watching the aunt wash clothes in the river in the morning, especially to the ancient street of Ming and Qing Dynasties is really close. The beds are also soft and sleep well.

The room was clean and well-equipped, with parking available right outside. It's a 5-minute walk from Yangjiatang, making it perfect for watching the sunrise in the morning. The sunlight creates the most beautiful filter, making you glow. P1: The breakfast the owner's mother-in-law prepared for us. We slept until after 10 a.m., but she still left a hot breakfast for us. How thoughtful! She even packed up some for us to eat on the way. 😄 The owner said she'd arrange this for us next time. P2: The sunset shot taken right outside the B&B. Sitting outside, enjoying the breeze and stargazing. 💫 P3: We didn't have a car, so getting to the county town was inconvenient. That evening, the owner drove my niece and me to an alley off the old street for dinner (I forgot what it was called, but it's pictured). Thumbs up! I'll be back next time.
