Hi Ma Ma Yunduan Lianxin Valley

My second visit to Yunduan. Like last year, enjoyed our stay. It’s a kid friendly place and includes a kids pool, playground and indoor kids club. This time we got a family friendly room just next to the swimming pool. My son loved the bunker bed with slide. Food has gotten better since last time although it’s primarily Chinese cuisine. Many of the dishes have English mentioned and carry a picture. Breakfast has Chinese and Western dishes but variety is limited. But services are excellent. This time our room didn’t have smart toilet which was the only regret. If you are traveling with kids this is a good choice for a short vacation.

Not worth the price and disappointing - I booked this place after looking at the images on the website, they looked very convincing. So I booked it for me and my wife to spend a relaxing day looking at the peaceful mountains and forest. However those pictures were quite misleading. The hotel is a compound of lackluster buildings build to a mountain side right next to the road. The view is nothing like in the website photos but quite mediocre. The room was quite good and modern. Which was the only plus point. Also the smart toilet and bathroom with the bathtub was nice, but it was evident the hotel staff needs to learn more about housekeeping. It seems like they were penny pinching. The bedsheets had holes in them, no glasses to drink water, only two water bottles and only two packs of coffee. Very very disappointing for the price I paid for one night. Furthermore although it says 24 hours concierge service，after 9 pm they stop responding to messages on wechat. I asked in Chinese to send some water bottles and glasses but they didn't respond. Very unprofessional. The breakfast was also pretty basic. Not even fresh juice, just a typical Chinese breakfast you will find in any low budget hotel. The swimming pool was so so and dirty. Other amenities were for kids, so I can't comment on those. Overall the hotel is very mediocre and not worth the money they are charging per night. I won't recommend this place to anyone as there are better places around this area for lesser price.
