Ugh, this trip was truly unpleasant. The staff were all very dedicated and responsive to requests, so the issues really stemmed from hotel management. When checking in, there was a long queue because of the crowd. According to the phone call I had the day before, I was supposed to go to the amusement park first, and then once the room was ready, I'd confirm the room number with the staff and come directly to pick up the key card to check in. These are standard procedures, and I was perfectly fine with that.
However, for hotels like the 'Boonie Bears Hotel' that offer park tickets, face recognition for park entry is usually done in the hotel lobby, allowing you to go straight to the park. Here, though, we had to go to the park entrance for face registration. We had to stand in the scorching sun and queue for a long time just to register successfully. By then, I was already too exhausted to even want to play. So I went back to the hotel to get my room card and was then told I had to queue again with all the other guests checking in. I did queue, but one guest was taking over ten minutes to check in, which was absolutely unacceptable. There were many others in the same situation as me, and everyone was getting agitated. The front desk was in utter chaos – quite an eye-opener!
As for other facilities, hygiene, environment, and breakfast, they were all pretty standard for a hotel, nothing particularly noteworthy. The biggest problem was the room temperature, which was close to 30°C, and the central air conditioning was still set to heating. The lady at the service center said she'd switch it to ventilation mode, but it made no difference. I wanted to open the floor-to-ceiling windows, but the room faced the street and was incredibly noisy. I woke up multiple times at night feeling hot.
Finally, regarding the performing arts town, both big shows were excellent, but the management was chaotic. This was especially true for 'Ma Chao Guarding Dujiangyan'. It was clearly a reservation-based show, but the audience numbers clearly exceeded capacity. People were standing everywhere in the viewing area, making it impossible for those at the back to see, and they kept complaining. It's hard to put into words!
