Room was small but OK in comfort. Cleanliness a bit dubious, especially the toilet. No in house breakfast was served because it was off season, but the owner arranged for us to have breakfast at a very nice local eatery instead. Also helped us with us luggage when we were headed to the maglev station 10 minutes away by foot. Location is good for sightseeing as it is away from the busiest parts of town while still near the river, but quite hard to locate when you first arrive.
Response from Property: Hello, sorry for the inconvenience, because you are a foreign guest, so the communication is not very convenient. Let me explain to you, the store is located in the old town core area of the old Ying Shao street, go straight out a few meters is the net red snow bridge, after booking the room we will take the initiative to contact the guests to tell the address, it is very convenient not to use the guests to find themselves, we will go to the drop off point reception into the town, but the vehicle is not able to directly enter the town, You take the maglev to reach the station is only a few hundred meters away from the core area of the ancient town, and then the room of the shop is clean and comfortable and hygienic, the health specialist cleans, the toilet is dry and wet separation, the smart toilet is complete, the breakfast we have always been outsourced, the breakfast shop is 10 meters next to my shop, the place where you eat breakfast is provided by the shop.

The hotel is very close to the bridge just walk 5 mins. Good location to walk around the ancient city and along the river. The service is superb. You need to contact hotel in advance as they need to meet you at the parking lot and bring you the hotel. The breakfast is at the restaurant nearby (local chinese style). The noodle soup is very delicious. Special thanks to Xiao Hong and Ar Ming for very nice hospitality. As there is no Didi in Fenghuang, they helped us to book the car to the airport and made sure that we arrived at the airport safely. Although they speak very limit English, we can communicate with WeChat.
The ancient city view at night is very beautiful but also very crowded with people dressed in the ancient costume and taking pictures everywhere. It was difficult to walk and enjoy the night view as it is a bit noisy because of the people and music from bars along the river. Day time is more peaceful to walk around.

This was one of the nicest, if not nicest, hotel owner I have encountered. So friendly and helpful with everything. On top of that, the rooms are lovely and very comfortable and warm. Bed is nice and the bathroom was luxurious. I would very much recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area. I would stay there again, should I visit.

Gorgeous boutique chinese style hotel in the heart of the fenghuang old town!
Great location easy to get dropped from the road for a taxi and easy to walk along the river and explore
Rooms are clean and modern and there’s a beautiful terrace on the top floor! Love it and would stay again

When I booked the room, I saw the decoration style of this hotel, which is elegant and ancient. When I came, I felt calm as soon as I entered the door. The room was unexpectedly clean and tidy, and the bed and quilt were soft and comfortable. After playing in the noisy ancient city, you can walk a little distance back to the room for a good sleep. The boss Ming is warm and hospitable. He contacted us the day before to arrange the reception. He could always be seen in the lobby. He would greet us warmly when he entered the door, and we could chat and talk together. It felt like a friend who had known each other for a long time. When he saw it raining, he would give us an umbrella to prevent us from getting wet. The cleaning aunt was also very serious and responsible. We stayed for two consecutive days. My husband took care of the aunt not to clean during the day, and the aunt came to confirm with me to avoid making mistakes. It doesn't feel like staying in a hotel here, but like returning home. This time, due to the continuous rain, I didn't experience the water activities, but it was because of this little regret that I had a reason to come again, right? Looking forward to meeting again^_^

Response from Property: Thank you for your praise. We are a boutique Zen homestay that promotes Zen tea culture. "The mountains are as quiet as the ancient times, and the days are as long as the New Year. The remaining flowers can still be drunk, and the good birds can sleep." The poem "Drunk Sleep" is as simple as the pine shadows in the stream, making time slow and empty. This change requires an inner foundation as support. There is a rich flow in the slowness, and there is a solid foundation in the emptiness. In this way, the feelings of the ancient times and the New Year will not become another burden of loneliness. Sobriety forces out the inner loopholes from time to time. Before the beautiful scenery, it was a dangerous road. Behind the words, only the responsibility is seen. In the obliterated ancient times, people were keen on flower arranging, burning incense, making tea, and hanging paintings. They made neat textiles, porcelain, lacquerware and food one by one by hand, respected the four seasons, had awe for all things and the world, and deeply admired elegance and beauty. They did not lose faith in noble and reserved sentiments... Such times seem to be gone forever. Surrounded by the derivatives of the new world, such as television news, the Internet, technological appliances, virtual space, chemical pollution, etc., how can we appreciate, express, maintain and protect history and tradition? There were flaws at that time, but there was also glory. There is no definitive conclusion when comparing the past and the present. The values that are swallowed up and pushed away are like the stars in the night sky, which are extinguished one by one. We may have forgotten to look up at the sky, find the orbits of the stars, and feel the brilliance that burst out from a distant time and space. And this brilliance is still waiting. Come to Fenghuang Ancient Town again when you have time.

The B&B is Japanese style, unique in the ancient city of Fenghuang. The room is very clean and tidy, and because it is not facing the river, it will not be noisy at night. The boss is very enthusiastic and picks us up in a taxi. We are very satisfied!

Hygiene: A very clean, tidy and elegant house with well-decorated rooms.
Facilities: It should have been renovated in the past year or two. Everything is new.
Environment: Quiet in the middle of the hustle and bustle, with convenient transportation, dining and entertainment.
Service: Very good. The boss personally picked up and dropped off the luggage and helped carry it up and down the stairs.
It is a very tastefully decorated house. It is simple but not modern. It can be seen that the owner is working hard. The beef noodles for breakfast are also very delicious. I support it!

The boss was very enthusiastic and patient. He told us the specific route before arriving, picked us up when we arrived nearby, and also explained in detail how to visit the ancient city and the route.
There is a snow bridge just outside the B&B. The location is so convenient.
The boss also upgraded the room type for us. The room was clean and tidy, especially the bathroom, and there was a bathtub for taking a bath. The only drawback is that there is no TV, which makes it a bit boring to stay in the house when it rains. The environment on the first floor is very good, antique 👍 I like it very much, and the price is also very suitable. The complimentary breakfast in the restaurant next door is really delicious. I recommend everyone to order the beef noodles and the freshly baked fried dough sticks are also very nice~
My stay this time was too short. I will stay at this B&B next time I come~ I hope the business will get better and better~

The Japanese design style is relaxed and comfortable, especially suitable for traveling. The B&B is only one step away from the most famous Tuojiang Snow Bridge. During the two days we spent together with Fenghuang Ancient City, we felt the tranquility during the day and were intoxicated by the splendor at night. I tasted the legendary Hunan cuisine, watched the live performance of "Border Town", and got to know the landscape of Congwen's hometown. "The sky opens a picture, and a man emerges as a phoenix", enjoy the beauty of Xiangxi! Thank you to the boss for your warm reception and I look forward to our next trip to Phoenix! Thanks

I am also a B&B owner, and I can praise the service. The breakfast is outsourced to a breakfast shop outside. I ate soy milk, fried dough sticks, and beef noodles... It's really good. The B&B is in the ancient city, and parking is in the unified parking lot outside. The parking fee is reimbursed by the B&B! This hotel can be rushed

The style of this famous hotel is so stylish, I like it very much! It’s very neat and clean, with many small works of art. I couldn’t help but take a bunch of photos. The beautiful proprietress was also very enthusiastic and friendly, and gave us a lot of shopping suggestions and food tips... Although the time was very short, it was still a very pleasant trip! Hope to have the opportunity to come again!

The hotel has a simple and Zen-like feel, offering tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle. Hongqiao is just outside the door. The whole family had a very comfortable stay. Thanks to the enthusiastic A Ming for picking up and dropping off from the parking lot, he helped upgrade the room with the elderly and children, and finally reimbursed the parking fee. It is a highly recommended hotel!

Environment: The style is a bit neo-Chinese, antique but fashionable and simple. It is very in line with the preferences of young people. I love it.
Service: The boss is warm and hospitable. There is no elevator in the B&B. We have four boxes. The boss helped us carry them upstairs one by one. When we checked out, he also helped us push them to the entrance of the ancient city and helped us take a taxi (Phoenix does not have online taxis, so we have to hail a taxi).
Hygiene: Very clean and tidy. Patients with mild mysophobia are satisfied. The B&B also provides disposable bathtub covers.
Breakfast: It is actually at a breakfast shop not far from the B&B. Youtiao, soy milk and noodles are rich in variety and taste good. The boss pays for all you can eat.
Disadvantages: The toilet/bathroom is not closed. The door is hollow and carved, and you can see inside even when the door is closed (the two rooms we stayed in are like this. I don’t know about other room types). I suggest the boss change it and add a curtain or something.
