This stay was incredible. Here's just 4 reasons why.
1. People - You won't find more warm-hearted people in China. The amount of effort they make so you have the best didi discounts, the fastest arrival to locations, the best itinerary options, the best food you can start your day with, it s unbelievable and truly out of this world since they don't need to do any of these.
2. Location - The location is 3-4 min drive away from the south gate of Zhangjiajie national Park. I know east gate entrance is very popular now, but if you want also a view of the mountains from the bottom, this entrance features a long walk in which you can see mountains monkeys, beautiful scenery overall. In addition i dont think you'll find a better stay near east entrance
3 - Food. - this is not a gamble restaurant you see and hope that what you selected is going to be good. In this place, it s ALWAYS great food. No matter what. At any hour. Whether you wake up at 7,8,9 they cook it for you. So far in China we only tasted good food in like 2/8 places. Everything is so spicy for our taste and usually not salted. Here? It s great. As eastern europeans, the food here exceeded our expectations to the max. Apart from local flavor, It can be sweet it can be flavoured in the way we like it, it can be salty, and it s great in any form. I dont know how important food is for some, but for us, considering the pork sticks and the average bad food all over the mountains, having this as the first meal of your day is a blessing really.
4. The room. - Great! I'm very glad it looked the eay it did on trip, so our expectations were fullfield. Bed very comfy, nice sheets, toilet and shower very clean. You also have a water filler so you can refill your bottles with fresh clean water everyday or drink in the room if you re thirsty. You can ask them via wechat or at the reception for laundry service anytime. Exceptional service.
