A serene guesthouse recommendation in Shaxi.
I blindly picked this guesthouse, having previously stayed in a slightly out-of-the-way place called 'Windy House.' So this time, I was determined to find somewhere close to town for easy access, and I was certainly pleased. The location is its biggest advantage; you can just stroll out the door. There are also many eateries and small shops in the alleys, so you won't get bored. Restaurants and bakeries are all within reach.
Ambiance. The elegant and quiet style perfectly matches the owner's temperament. The facilities are complete. My family stayed on the second floor, with two adjacent rooms in a large suite that included an outdoor balcony. If you're relaxing at the guesthouse and the weather is good, having tea and watching the fish on the first floor is quite pleasant.
Food. Breakfast preferences are usually confirmed a day in advance. The Chinese option includes rice noodles, steamed buns, and soy milk, while the Western option offers salad, toast, and coffee. I tried both during my two-day stay, and there was nothing to fault; both the portion sizes and ingredient quality met high standards.
Before leaving, I complimented the guesthouse's lovely scent, and the owner generously gifted me some special incense sticks. Such small details really touched my heart. Thank you. Objectively speaking, my family and I gave high marks for quality, price, location, and living comfort. I hope to recommend it to friends visiting Shaxi, to bring them a pleasant trip.
