Xiaoxiaoqin B&B (Hongya Cave) Reviews

We checked in on the 13 and was shocked by the condition of the room. On pictures, it was nice, in reality, it is covered with dust and grime. I do not know if housekeeping is done by landlord or butler, but it is pretty sad. We booked the lijiang room which is for 4 rooms. The 4th room is actually the balcony of the apartment, boarded up. They used a cloth to block the apartments stairwell from view. The cloth was dusty and the view scary so my daughter refused to sleep in that room. She even thought the odd attachment on the wall was a cctv. It didn't leave a pleasant feel. The toilet was old, and not cleaned properly. What was interesting was our toilet is a world of difference from another room from the same seller. I conclude that other rooms had been upgraded but not my room. This is a clear misrepresentation. It should be clearly stated that this room is not renovated, unlike the other rooms. We were so traumatised by the room and checked out immediately that night and moved into a hotel nearby. The seller refused to refund the amount due to their "strict non-return" policy, so trip.com stepped in to compensate a small amount. We booked 4 nights, and that is not a small sum, since this room is the largest of the lot. It is a buyers beware kind of situation. Trip.com should step in and put a disclaimer for this room. Both Trip.com and this seller should do better. Attached are photos that are clearer representation of the room Location-wise, it is ideal as it is nea hongyadong, but it is in an old building, and the corridors are dark and eerie, with sensor lights that come on when u walk past.

Pro: Location is superb, right at the centre of the busy hongyadong. - Owner response fast to request Cons: - The apartment kitchen and toilet need to renovate. Super dirty with lots of amenities beyond repairs. - Refrigerator need a thorough clean. We didn’t dare to use it the whole time staying. As it was super dirty. - All the cabinet in the kitchen and bedrooms have stains and dirt everywhere. - washing machine is tiny and only manage to clean Up to 4-5 winter clothes

Good view

Great location, variety of food nearby, clean, good service by admin staff. It will be perfect if there is some refurbishment.

the place was clean with a nice view of hong ya cave. would be great if you can provide clothes dryer.

The property could benefit from some updates and maintenance. One of the queen bedrooms was converted from a balcony, making it extremely cold during winter. Additionally, the heater in one of the rooms next to the hall was not working, which made it very uncomfortable to sleep through the night. The bathroom in one of the rooms remained choked throughout our stay, and overall, the bathrooms were not thoroughly cleaned. The kitchen also lacked proper cleanliness, which was disappointing. On a positive note, the view from the hall was decent, but unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to make up for the shortcomings in comfort and cleanliness.

Room is huge, toilet is slightly underwhelming. But host has been very extremely helpful. Very good view to see hongya cave from the top.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!!!

Environment: The location is very good, right next to Hongyadong. Very convenient, many places can be reached on foot. It is also easy to find a taxi. There are many places to eat around. Hygiene: Clean. Very spacious, very suitable for many people to travel together. Although it can be seen that this place is a bit old, it is an old house, but some decorations have been done, so it is okay. Very comfortable. Facilities: Complete

The view from the room is really beautiful, especially in the evening. You can get a taxi as soon as you go out. It's a little crowded at night, but it's really convenient. It would be better if the bed was more comfortable.

First-line view room, convenient transportation, Hongya Cave downstairs

The room is very good, clean and tidy. It is located next to Hongya Cave and overlooks the entire Hongya Cave at night. The surrounding transportation is convenient and there are many delicious foods. I recommend it!

The accommodation is exactly as shown in the picture 100%. It has all the electrical appliances. There are four bedrooms with large beds, comfortable beds, air conditioning, heaters, good water flow in the bathroom. The owner is kind and lets me check in early. The view is beautiful as shown in the picture. The location is good and convenient to travel. I recommend it.

It's on the 30th floor of a tower apartment building right next to Hongyadong Cave. The view is as spectacular as the photos show. The living room is spacious and comes with a mahjong table. There are four clean bedrooms and two toilets and shower rooms, making this the best place to stay. Of course, there are plenty of hotpot restaurants nearby, which is convenient. The manager's response was quick and I think this is the best place to stay. I highly recommend it.
