Pure Motel

I booked the Dome Room for two nights. As many online reviews mentioned, it was indeed very clean. The bedding was high-quality pure cotton, spotless white, making for a very reassuring sleep. Oh! Besides the room's air conditioning (heating and cooling), they also provided electric blankets on the beds – what a thoughtful owner! The room came with an induction cooker, microwave, and refrigerator. The owner also thoughtfully provided dishes, pots, cutlery, tea bags, and milk, making it perfect for those who want to prepare simple meals. Each room has free, unlimited Wi-Fi! We parked our car right outside the room, which made it very convenient to grab things. The bathroom had both a shower and a spa tub, and they provided hand soap, shampoo/body wash, aromatic scents for the spa, and a hairdryer. As for the service, both the owner and his wife were incredibly warm and attentive! Any issues we had were resolved immediately; their speed was impressive! At just over 400 RMB per night booked through Ctrip, it was truly excellent value for money, far better than those run-down, outdated star-rated hotels! The half-star deduction is for the slightly weak water pressure in the shower, but after returning from the hot springs, a quick rinse is all you need, so it didn't bother us much. Next time we come for the hot springs, we will definitely choose to stay here again.

The owner is Chinese, so communication was very smooth. The room is a duplex, with one bedroom and a bathroom downstairs, and a kitchen, living room, and another bedroom upstairs. The space isn't huge, but it's well-equipped, and the bathtub is a good size. There's a terrace upstairs with a grapevine, and downstairs has direct access to a small courtyard. However, if you're traveling with elderly people or children and have a lot of luggage, going up and down the stairs might be a bit inconvenient.

We were assigned a room on 1st floor. There is no lift, can only take the stairs. So not accessible for disabled people or elderly. Lucky that we didn't have any suitcases! We arrived late and hotel made special arrangements for checkin. Very kind of the front desk personnel. The jacuzzi inside bathroom looks old and there is a time limit of usage!! Nearest supermarket is 25mins away on foot.

Room is good and there was a pool. The shared bathroom is toooooo tiny. Parking is $10 if you drive. Didn’t go to the kitchen. Location is great close to everything but bathroom was the only problem.

The so-called breakfast was too poor. It only consisted of two slices of bread, two cans of yogurt, a 200ml box of milk, and a few jams. They were placed in the room on the day of check-in. The key is that the yogurt and milk were not placed in the refrigerator. The so-called motel hot springs are just two tiled pools from the 1970s in China.

We stayed 3 nights in this lovely motel complex. Our room was very spacious, with room to sit comfortable on the sofa. It included a mini kitchen which we used everyday. Bed very comfortable, bathroom fully quipped with excellent shower. We had double doors out to small patio area in front of a paddock which had alpacas, a sheep & rabbits roaming. On arrival given food to feed the animals if we wanted to. This added to the enjoyment. There were two of us adults, but this is also a very family oriented place with play equipment for children, so would suit families too. We used the onsite laundry services which were a great help. All in all a great stay, well looked after by the staff too.

Very clean, has everything you need. Wasn’t able to check in by 630pm, called them in advance to inform and arranged for a self check in. Emily was very kind, explained the steps over the phone, and texted again just as a reminder. Self check in was very easy and convenient. Instructions were attached with the key, documents were neatly placed in the room. Only downside was it wasn’t very close to the supermarket/shops, probably about 15min walk, but it was raining so took us 20min. Driving would have been better. Please note there’s no lift, so we had to carry our luggage to the 2nd floor. Overall, would come back again, it was still a great stay!

The hotel was in a good location. Very near to some cafe and ample parking spaces. But unfortunately there was no electricity on our second day due to construction works nearby. To be specific: there was No Electricity from 8-9am until 1-2pm and then resumed normal. We had to finish all the food we bought from supermarket immediately otherwise food would turn bad. There was a carnival or something nearby and there was fireworks.

The room is clean and tidy, very comfortable, suitable for two families or a few friends to stay together, it is worth recommending. I hope to have the opportunity to stay here again next time.
