Mingshui Ancient City Yianyue Hotel

What can I say about Mingshui Ancient Town? It's quite pretty, but ancient towns and streets like this can be found all over the country! It was pitch dark by 8 p.m., and after searching for ages, I found a restaurant. The food was terrible, the quality, and the portions were terrible, and the prices were ridiculously high. A set meal for two was over 400 yuan. Speaking of the hotel, I have to complain. The restaurant is large, but that doesn't make it any less appealing. The breakfast was quite meager. There wasn't much to eat, let alone anything good. It was comparable to the breakfasts at those budget-friendly hotels you get during peak season tours. The service at the front desk, restaurant, and housekeeping was poor. Many of the young staff seemed inexperienced, clueless, and unproductive. The hotel we stayed at the next day didn't even mention cleaning. We called the front desk and our room four or five times, but when we returned from the ancient town that evening, it still hadn't been cleaned at all. It took another hour before the staff finally came to clean and left, resulting in the following pictures. The decor was also terrible. Even though it was a family suite, I had to keep the lights on in my room as well as in my bathroom. The decor was sparse, and there wasn't even a desk, chair, or sofa to use! The experience was so bad that I've given up on Jinan. I won't be going back. There's nothing much to see, do, or eat anyway!

The price/performance ratio is quite high, but there are many children on weekends and the room is not soundproofed. I can hear the children playing outside, which affects my rest. Other than that, everything is good.

I booked a hotel for my parents and had a very bad experience. Not only did the hotel front desk staff have a bad attitude, but they also deceived the elderly into purchasing scenic spot tickets even though they knew they were over 60 years old (seniors over 60 years old are free of charge in the scenic spots). It is hoped that the hotel can deal with the employee involved. The name of the employee is unknown and his photo is attached. I hope everyone will not be deceived again when booking this hotel. The hotel environment is okay. There is a free shuttle bus to the scenic spots. Except for the poor quality of some employees, the rest are pretty good.
