Guest UserI enjoyed my stay at this hotel. There is quite a bit to see around Lingqiu, and I should have stayed one extra night or two. Miss Liu (刘小姐), the front receptionist, was extremely helpful, even going all the way to accompany me to the bus stop to catch the bus heading to the Pingxingguan Battle site. Miss Liu also assisted with booking a cab for my visit to the Jueshan Pagoda. This famous Pagoda was founded before England was established by William the Conqueror (if I am wrong, then pardon me, but the Pagoda was built sometime before 1077 A.D. during the Northern Wei Dynasty). Miss Liu also directed me to the gravesite of King Wu of the Northern Wei Dynasty which is right in downtown Lingqiu.
There are numerous restaurants within walking distance of this hotel. One restaurant, next door to the right of the hotel, serves a wondering braised fish; the other a few doors away, sells delicious meat pies.
My room was professionally cleaned and serviced daily.
The hotel even allows me to doze off on the reception floor sofa to await my night train to Beijing.
I will return to this hotel if I return to Lingqiu.

This time to Datong, choosing to stay at Shengyajuju is really the wisest decision! From booking to leaving the store, the whole experience is impeccable.
Location: The location of the homestay is quiet, it is very convenient to go to the core attractions such as the ancient city wall, Huayan Temple, Kowloon Wall and other attractions, and it is within walking distance. The surrounding life is convenient, but it will not be too noisy, and the rest is very quiet at night.
Environmental facilities: I was deeply attracted as soon as I entered the door! The decoration is very distinctive, perfectly integrating classical Chinese aesthetics and modern comfort. The room was spotless, the bedding was soft and comfortable, and I lay on it to remove the fatigue of the journey. The facilities are full marks, high-definition projection, first-class quality toiletries, details can feel the owner's intentions everywhere.
Warm service: The hospitality of the boss and staff makes people feel at home. The room introduced the play guide and food map, helping to book tickets, and saving a lot of worry.
Featured experience: I have to mention the breakfast near his home! The authentic Shanxi characteristics are clean and delicious, and they are full of energy for a day of play.
In short, Shengyaju is not only a place to stay, but also a good memory during the trip. Next time I come to Datong, I will definitely stay again and recommend it to all my friends without hesitation!

We had a happy experience checking in at this hotel. The receptionist was very pleasant and helpful. We loved our room! It was bright and cheerful and spacious. The shower and drainage was very good.
Location is fantastic, near the railway station and many bus services, especially for going to Yungang grottoes. There was a mall, with a hypermarket in the basement and minimarts around.
What we like most was there was a washing machine and dryer for guests to use, free of charge!
If we ever come to Datong again, we would stay here. Highly recommend this place!

PiecebypeaceOk so here is my Honest review of this brand new hotel in Datong. I understand this is a brand new hotel so I hope this could help as a honest review.
-Staff are helpful even for foreigners. They do their best to accommodate your questions and are very friendly.
-Rooms are clean with all the necessary amenities.
-Rooms dont smell like cigarettes/smoke unlike gmost other hotels.
-Rooms are fairly spacious.
-location is good, its still a fair 15-20min walk to alot of the sights such as the wall or the drama play but it is close to the fortress wall down south.
-WIFI is very good, great signal.
Things that i think need working on
- The hotel is a little bit difficult to find, i dont recall seeing a sign, maybe becsuse it is brand new. I had to go into a neighbouring hotel to ask if it was the correct one and they helped me call this hotel and actually guided me here.
- Although it says I have a courtyard window it is actually facing inside (as the rooms are undeeground) and the window is facing the hall way lol.
- my biggest complaint is the lack of toilet roll, i was given one roll (which is fine) but the next day they didnt replenish it resulting in me running out...luckily I always keep tissue with me (A must in china for the public toilets)
- As its basement level its hard to pick up reception on your phone.
Overall, value for money I think is great for the location and the cleanliness. A few things to work on but its understandable for a new business.

Guest UserThe room is large and well decorated. The bed and pillows are very comfortable. The disposable slippers are very high-end. The whole house is smart. It's just that the air conditioner is a bit smelly and then turns off after ten minutes. The two beds in the house are very good. The only flaw is I feel that the glass in the bathroom and shower room should be covered with frosted film so that it cannot be seen through. After all, the two beds must be shared by a family. It is not convenient to have transparent glass with a film that does not provide privacy. Overall, it is very good and worth it. recommend

Extremely happy with my stay here!
Room is very spacious and clean, and I was within walking distance to most of the attractions and restaurants.
The staff here are very friendly and they always went out of their way to make my experience in Datong memorable! I'm especially grateful because the manager showed me how to order food from local restaurants using my phone and get it delivered straight to my room!
10/10!!

Yinyin6677The room was spacious, equipped with a coffee table, sofa, fridge, and a kettle. There was even an electric stove and a range hood, so you could cook your own meals. Downstairs, there's a convenience store, and right outside, you'll find a bus stop on the main road. Across the street is a four-star hotel, and you can even see the ancient city walls right from your room window.

For the price, it was everything you need! Clean spaces, comfortable capsule bed, drinking water, towels and shower slippers. The location is a 20 minute bike ride away from the ancient city center, but there are plenty of supermarkets and restaurants nearby. The hostel provides earplugs which significantly increase comfort of sleep, as the floors are quite squeaky. I am very happy with my stay and would come back again!

Guest UserThe hotel is conveniently located near Datong train station, making it easy to access excursions to the Hanging Temple and Yungang Grottoes. The staff were friendly. However (as stated in the description), the toilets and showers are in the hallway, which feels a bit like camping.
What I liked least was that we had to pass through the taxi stand area to get back to the hotel. Being alone, I had a hard time convincing the taxi drivers that my hotel was just a 2-minute walk away.
