Lavande Hotel (Beidaihe Tiger Stone)

My overall impression was poor. The hotel felt old, the corridors were dimly lit, dusty, and had an unpleasant, musty smell. Outdated Room Facilities: The electric curtains in my room were broken – they wouldn't open or close, and couldn't even be pulled manually. I called the front desk for repairs and had to wait a very long time for someone to come. Eventually, they detached the curtain from its motor, allowing me to operate it manually, which I accepted as a temporary fix. The technician left after 'fixing' it. However, later, I kept hearing a noise from the curtain. When I pulled it open to check, I saw the motor was still there, constantly running! I had to call the front desk *again* to have a technician come back and completely remove the motor. Throughout this entire ordeal, the hotel front desk never followed up. It seemed they didn't even bother to take this faulty room out of service. The technician simply addressed the immediate problem without truly resolving it or removing the errant motor. All these incidents highlighted a complete lack of attention to detail. The Shower Water Was Ridiculous: If you turned up the water pressure, it was cold. If you tried to get hot water, the pressure was just a weak trickle. Absolutely frustrating! Front Desk Attitude: One particular front desk staff member, from check-in to subsequent interactions, never offered a single smile and spoke in a very curt and unfriendly manner. #DefinitelyNotRecommended#

The room was very dated and the facilities were poor. I booked a family room for 646, and it was terrible value for money. Breakfast wasn't included. The 'air purifier' was just an old, decrepit machine, and even the Mousse brand mattress felt damp. The bathroom facilities were also dated; the toilet wasn't a smart toilet, and a power outlet was surprisingly broken. The towels felt like rags. Overall, my stay was a poor experience, and it definitely wasn't worth the price.
