Yixing Vacations

This was a great place to stay for 2 nights in the cave room, but it would have become depressing any longer than that. There is not sufficient light to brighten it up. It’s always pretty dark. Otherwise cool place. Easy to get a DiDi out front. No English spoken at the desk. Also contacted the property about an airport pickup as advertised and never got a response.

Very helpful and friendly staff! Room was spacious and child friendly.

Good location. Room is small without window. Free laundry is nice. Won’t stay again.

Hard to find, spacious 2 bed and kitchen for 4 adults. Pros: Convenient enough location metro lines 13, 4, 8 walking distance, 6,7,8,9,10,12,2 a few stops away. Metro is cheap. large 2 bed with kitchen dining and lounge area, good ac, internet, in room laundry, room safe, daily housekeeping, complimentary coffee/tea and bottled water, breakfast area, gym and lounge area, close to metro and grocery/shopping mall Cons: sketchy are when it gets dark at night with limited street lighting, access by car difficult, strange lobby set up, state of accommodations needs cosmetic touch up, poor shower drainage allows water to pool on floor Surrounding area: neighbourhood is a little rough, be mindful of bicycles and electric scooters zipping past you on sidewalk, crossing the street can be hazardous as well with the e-scooters and cars being extra aggressive. Taking the metro is quite safe and easy. Didi taxi also works well for longer distances and if you have a lot of baggage. Tourist Tip: better to book hotels near the lime green 2 metro line which hits all the spots. English not commonly spoken or understood the farther away from tourist areas. The city is mostly cashless, download Alipay prior to arrival, link with credit card. Also get ESim to use your Google apps. General observation: In China there’s no time for courtesy. Some cultural differences like coughing without covering, spitting, and nose picking in public.
