Xiangsu (Longsheng Longji Terrace Observation Deck) Reviews

Very nice staff. Location is in a quiet neighborhood up in the rice terraces. We enjoyed our stay and got support from the owner to arrange our travel to and from the hotel. A nice little touch was the foot baths and tea ceremony, which was nice after an all day hike through the rice terraces.

We stayed in this place for two nights. Hotel seem newly s renovated and clean. This hotel is run by the beautiful family. They prepare home made breakfast, lunch and dinner. Very cosy place. But if you look the view with the rice terraces, better choose a different location.

Amazing family guesthouse located perfectly between all the scenic areas near Dazhai! Good food, friendly family, very clean and nice rooms. View on the rice fields from the terrace is amazing

The round bed room is pretty cool. It gives a view over Seven Stars with Moon. We enjoyed very much the traditional Yao’s style architecture. The building and the rooms are all made of wood. The food in the hotel restaurant is tasty esp. the chicken in bamboo. The owners are hospitable. They provided a lot of useful information like the instruction to get to DaZhai, what are nicest viewing spots and how to get PinAn by hiking.

Lovely family run hotel with delicious food in the restaurant and a great atmosphere in the evening. Appreciated the pick up from the central square (taxis don’t operate in the terrace area) and the evening foot baths (needed after a long day walking). Lots of lovely hikes in the area and the scenery is spectacular. Wished we could have stayed longer.

The owner made a great breakfast, the foot bath was very comfortable, and he also sent us down the mountain. Finally, the food in the restaurant was also very good! The view from the room was really beautiful.

The boss is super nice. The environment and service are very good and clean. The food is also very fresh.

The boss and his family are all locals, very easy-going and friendly. The room structure is unique and comfortable to live in, and the price is reasonable. The food is made with care and has a light and natural taste.

Room: Standard room, facing east, you can see a little terraced field on the fourth floor, and you can see the sun rising. The B&B does not have an elevator (it seems that all B&Bs do not have one), and you need to climb stairs to enter the room. Service: Accommodation is in the village, and you can pick up and drop off at the Dazhai parking lot. Just contact the owner in advance. Location: In the middle of the No. 1 and No. 2 viewing platforms, it is very convenient to go up and down. Food: Food is all locally produced, vegetables, rice, chicken, and rice wine, which are especially delicious.

The location of the homestay is relatively low, and in a valley. You can't see the terraced fields from the window. The environment inside the house is average. It feels dark because of the mountain, and it doesn't look clean. It is relatively close to the No. 2 viewing platform, 7.8 minutes. It takes 20 to 30 minutes to climb the stone road to No. 1, which varies from person to person. But the scenery of No. 2 is far inferior to No. 1. You must go to No. 1 to overlook the terraced fields. The boss is very nice and enthusiastic. There is a medicinal foot bath at night. The food in the restaurant is quite delicious. Maybe because of the bad location, the price is very advantageous and cheap. (Picture 1 is the view of No. 1, and Picture 2 is the view of No. 2. There is still a difference)

The scenery of Longji Terraces is beautiful, but the journey is also very long. You have to take a bus to the gate of the scenic area to buy tickets, and then the distance to Dazhai parking lot is more than 20 kilometers. When we arrived at the Dazhai parking lot, the owner of the homestay had been waiting there for a long time and took us to the homestay. The owner is very nice and the food is delicious. The scenery outside the balcony of the homestay is so beautiful. You can see the cable car to Jinfoding. The location of the homestay is good for viewing platforms 1 and 2. If you want to take the cable car to Jinfoding, you can ask the owner if there is time to send you to Dazhai parking lot, which is the location of the cable car. The round-trip ticket for the Jinfoding cable car is 100 RMB. If it doesn't rain, you can choose to take the cable car up and walk down the mountain by yourself. It is very convenient to live in a homestay and eat in a homestay. In fact, the surrounding homestays all provide meals to the public. The dishes cooked by the boss are also delicious. The rice is the kind of rice that the locals eat. It is delicious. If you need anything or have cleaning problems when staying in the hostel, you can communicate directly with the boss and the boss's wife, because the hostels are all local people, not as particular as those outside, so if you have any needs or if they don't do it well, you should take the initiative to remind them. Because the hostels are all wooden buildings, try not to let the children run all the time if you bring them. The sound insulation is not very good, which will affect other guests. The boss's hostel has free foot bathing. After walking on the mountain road for a day, it is still very comfortable to soak your feet at night. The boss's house also has billiards, and it is still very happy to play entertainment.

Facilities: quite complete, supplies are also available, air conditioning and heating are very useful? The mattress is a bit thin, sleeping will make you tired, and the wooden floor creaks when you step on it. Hygiene: Overall good, the quilt cover has a little stain. Environment: The location of the homestay is pretty good, you can see the terraced fields, and it is not far from the observation deck. It's just that climbing the stairs every day is very hard. Service: I just can't keep up with the flow. The female boss is really busy and can't take care of replying. I often can't find anyone. The fruit juice that was said to be delivered when booking the room was never provided. There are some ethnic costumes, but they are all summer clothes. It was a bit cold when we went there, and we couldn't wear that style. The rice wine is good and delicious. It is delivered every night and every table has it. I only went to the Yao ethnic foot bath once. It was too cold. I had to wear the thickest clothes to soak there. There were not many places on the sofa and chairs. Regarding the food and beverage, I would like to say that the bamboo tube rice and bamboo tube chicken made by the store on the first day were pretty good and fresh, but the sincerity was not very good when ordering. The food I ordered was obviously similar to the content on a certain tour group, and there were many discounts, but the store did not remind me that there was a coupon to use. I didn’t know until someone checked out later. I was given a coupon. There was also a green vegetable in the food. After negotiation, because I stayed for two consecutive nights, I could also get a green vegetable on the second day. It was quite flexible. As a result, the perilla beer fish we ate on the second day was called sword bone fish, but it had a lot of bones. It was completely different from the sword bone fish we had eaten all the way in Guilin and Yangshuo. And because there were so many people, we had to wait for an hour every time we ordered the food these two days before the food was served... Many people complained about hypoglycemia. Finally, I want to say to the store that it is really hard for you to take care of two children. But you also have to ensure the experience of the guests. If you need to hire more people, you should increase the staff. Don’t work and work with your children on your back. You will be tired and the guests will suffer.

The boss is very nice. The environment is very good. You can see the terraced fields while sitting on the balcony. The parking lot is also very convenient. I bought mushrooms from the boss. They tasted good when I cooked them at home. The boss also helped us upgrade the room for free. Thank you, boss.

Facilities: Ancient and unique Sanitation: Super clean, no complaints Environment: You can see the mountains and terraces on the opposite side from the balcony, and the scenery is good. It is not far from the observation deck. Go forward to No. 1 and go back to No. 2. Service: The boss is very enthusiastic, the pick-up service and the usual service are very thoughtful, and helped to book a car back to Guilin. Overall, it is very worthwhile, less than 400, and very, very comfortable.
