The hotel's location is excellent, right next to the Drum Tower (though Gaode Maps was a bit off, directing me to the Drum Tower roundabout). The hotel's overall design is pleasant. Upon entering the room, it felt like a classic 4-star hotel in terms of layout. The attention to detail was excellent; things like the signs and small amenities were thoughtfully placed and very user-friendly. It gives the impression that the owner has a background in hotel management.
The sole drawback was the strong foot odor emanating from the duvet I used. My friends staying in other rooms didn't encounter this, but the smell in my room was quite pervasive. I suspect the linen might have been contaminated during transport or handling. Additionally, the carpet in the guest room showed signs of age, with some dusty spots in hard-to-reach areas.
The hotel offers a private parking lot, and they were very thoughtful in covering my car with a sunshade, which was a great service.
The half-point deduction is primarily for the duvet's strange smell; otherwise, everything else was excellent.
The desert experience exceeded all expectations! During the day, the golden sands stretched endlessly, and at sunset, the dunes were painted with breathtaking colors. At night, with no light pollution, I looked up to see a sky full of stars, including a clear Milky Way band. The dune bashing was thrilling and fun, and sandboarding and camel riding were also available. The evening bonfire party with fireworks created an amazing atmosphere. The owner's service was attentive and thoughtful, and the accommodation was clean and comfortable. It's a perfect escape from the city's hustle and bustle, healing all fatigue. Highly recommend!
Good value for money, friendly, helpful night staff, no language problem, easy and trouble free foreign friendly. The feedback is based on my room and my overall experience. The room was very clean, newish super clear, bright lights bathroom, with very nice shower. The beds are a bit hard but nothing major, very quite, small but manageable parking space, despite my car being a big. It was one night experience, short but pleasant with lots of food option but the front doors of the hotel. Which very convenient. Definitely recommend unfortunately, I forgot to take some pictures. ThumbsUp 👍

The hotel's location is very convenient, with a wide variety of delicious restaurants! Transportation is also very convenient, with easy access to public transportation. The service, environment, cleanliness, and breakfast are all good!
This time I stayed at the desert tent hotel, and its facilities were far beyond my expectations! There is a viewing terrace outside the tent, equipped with comfortable lounge chairs, allowing me to enjoy the magnificent scenery of the desert sunrise and sunset. The interior of the tent is no slouch either, and it stays nice and cool even on a scorching desert day. The independent bathroom is separated into wet and dry areas, with a stable supply of hot water and high-quality toiletries. There are also a lot of entertainment facilities, including desert motorcycles, sandboards, etc., which satisfy my pursuit of exciting experiences. What’s even more thoughtful is that the tent is also equipped with an emergency medicine kit and charging equipment, showing care in every detail. Such high-quality facilities gave me an unforgettable desert trip!
1. The hotel environment is superb. The lobby is grand and clean, the rooms are spacious, bright, and odor-free, and the bedding is soft and comfortable.

Should I adjust the focus of my review based on the specific stay scenario (e.g., family, business, vacation)?
This business trip was particularly smooth, the hotel environment was particularly good, the parking was convenient, the breakfast was good, the facilities and hardware were good, the customer service staff was good, and the bath clothes were helped to send the room. It is recommended for guests on business trips and tourist guests. All aspects are great
This hotel in Yinchuan on a business trip is very cost-effective. Hotel management is in place, the staff is warm and the city center is very convenient. The most important thing is that the price of this stay is very close to the people. The room area is quite large, the room has no smell, the ventilation effect of the window is particularly comfortable, and the rest is very quiet at night. It is very convenient to drive and park next time, and the parking lot is free. Overall, I feel very satisfied with the stay. I would like to recommend it to everyone too!

This hotel was the most satisfying hotel of my entire trip. Thank you to the receptionist for the complimentary upgrade to an executive king room. I was surprised to learn that a hotel costing only 200 RMB per night now offers a laundry room, gym, and a rich, clean, and nutritious breakfast. The hotel is fully smart-equipped, aesthetically pleasing, and even has automatic sensor nightlights, which is very thoughtful and considerate for families with elderly members and children. The hotel is located near Yinchuan Railway Station, yet it's not too noisy, making it very quiet for sleeping. If you're just visiting Yinchuan city, it's very convenient for sightseeing and dining; it's only about 15 RMB by taxi to the museum, Lanshan Park, and Huaiyuan Night Market. From here, you can take a taxi to Yinchuan Railway Station for 9 RMB, and then take the high-speed train from Yinchuan Railway Station to Hedong Airport Station, which takes only 20 minutes and costs 15 RMB per person. Finally, every receptionist was incredibly friendly and helpful, greeting guests with a sweet smile. I highly recommend this hotel!

PPanzhuzhuPSYThis desert stargazing B&B in the middle of nowhere is absolutely incredible! The location is superb, far from any light pollution, so you can see the Milky Way and countless stars at night – it's absolutely stunning and so therapeutic ✨. The room is clean and comfortable, and you can even stargaze right from your bed. The owner is incredibly warm, attentive, and thoughtful. The whole atmosphere is fantastic, every photo turns out like a masterpiece. My experience was perfect, it's definitely worth making a special trip for, highly recommended!
GGuest UserI absolutely loved this place! I’m writing this as a foreigner who went with 4 other foreigners for a special birthday weekend. First, the service. We have good Chinese proficiency, but those with limited to none will be fine. Most of the communication and coordination is handled via WeChat - which can auto translate. 东 “Dong” was our main contact. He rocked and gave us a real experience. He shuttled us in the sand jeep, gifted me a cake for my birthday, and was just an overall cool guy. Thanks! Second, the location and accommodations. If you stay near Desert Star, there’s a lot of people and campsites - that area seems like a bit of a tourist funnel. This area is located in the REAL sand dunes area. Further North, you actually cross into Inner Mongolia. The separation and distance is worth it. Makes for brighter stars and a more authentic experience. Third, the food. They were able to coordinate a whole lamb to be roasted for my birthday. It was absolutely extraordinary. The sides for it were some of the best I had on the entire trip - they have some skilled chefs there. This place has great reviews, and it’s worth it. I do recommend this to foreigners, and I hope I can return one day.

HHello there!The hotel was great overall, with very helpful staff. The room was clean and functional, I especially liked the lighting setup, which could be adjusted to create a really cozy atmosphere. The location wasn’t particularly special for me, but it would be ideal if you plan to visit the nearby amusement park.
The breakfast, however, was disappointing. The food didn’t taste good, and the dining area was cluttered with dirty dishes, making it difficult to even find a seat.
GGuest UserI decided to go to Yinchuan on a whim during the May Day holiday. After comparing several hotels along the way, this was the only one in the same price range with the largest room. It had two floor-to-ceiling windows, making it very spacious and comfortable. However, because it's facing the street, there was some noise from passing vehicles. The soundproofing was slightly lacking; the elevator door opening sound was clearly audible. The sofa was very comfortable, suitable for both business and family use. It had a separate wet and dry area, a smart toilet, and was easy to use. The amenities were complete, but the ”Hisense Xiaoju” (a type of smart toilet seat) was a bit of a letdown; its performance wasn't as good as ”*du” or ”*ai” (another type of smart toilet seat), it was a bit slow to respond, and had fewer functions. The staff were very friendly, enthusiastic, and provided excellent service with a very quick and responsive attitude. The front desk had prepared disposable toilet seat covers and other basic supplies, making it convenient for guests to help themselves. It was very child-friendly; breakfast was served directly to children without tickets. It's very close to the Drum Tower, Jade Emperor Pavilion, a famous local snack shop, and Kemali snack shop, all within walking or cycling distance. There's also a bus stop right outside, which is very convenient. Of course, for family trips, it would be perfect if the hotel provided a couple more bottles of water!
GGuest UserTraveling with my family, I passed by here and booked 2 rooms. The space is relatively large, but the facilities are relatively old. The dry and wet are separated, but the door is not closed tightly. However, the breakfast is quite rich.
GGuest UserThe hotel is very convenient as it is inside sha po you yellow river park. You can enjoy the view while taking your meal at the restaurant which is next to the yellow river. At night can walk around the park while the rest of the tourists leave the place. It is like the whole park is yours. Hotel staff is friendly and helpful. Food wise is more traditional/local Chinese food. Foreigners may not be used to it. Hotel is very clean as welll. They have complimentary breakfast and dinner, welcome fruits and afternoon tea. overall the hotel is great!
GGuest UserThe tourist attraction Gulou is only a 3-minute walk to the right.
Meals are buffet style and the watermelons are large and delicious.
Just before that is the Gulou Zhubaocheng Shopping Mall.
It was bustling with people.
There was a large supermarket in the basement of the shopping mall, a 3-minute walk to the left from the hotel.
