I checked in at Xizi Bamboo Creek Nostalgia B&B

🧹Soundproofing/Hygiene: Clean and comfortable 🏘️️️Room Type/Layout: Double bed, standard room, family room, suitable for different customer needs 🛌Supplies/Facilities: Hotel quality, high-count bed linens, dry and wet separation, French windows 💰️Average cost: CNY 150/person 💗Other tips: Electric scooter rental CNY 50/day 1. Living by the mountains: A balance of seclusion and prosperity • Prime location: Located on the north side of Qingzhiwu Cultural Street, a 5-minute walk to Zhejiang University Yuquan Campus and next to the Botanical Garden • Spatial design concept: With "bamboo shadows entering the curtain" as the main design theme, all 16 rooms are equipped with panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows and independent viewing balconies • Integration of local culture: A B&B run by Hangzhou locals, with a strong Hangzhou lifestyle. The proprietress is straightforward but enthusiastic, and the common area displays local specialties such as tea. 2. Walking distance: A scenic corridor within walking distance • Natural wonders: o Hangzhou Botanical Garden North Gate (300m): Enjoy cherry blossoms in spring, red leaves in autumn, spider lilies in summer, and plum blossoms in winter. Escape the hustle and bustle of crowds. This is a popular spot for Hangzhou locals, offering a glimpse into their daily lives. o Qingzhiwu Slow Life Block (80m): Stone-paved roads connect art shops and century-old trees. This slow-paced block is home to various cafes and tea houses, where Hangzhou locals spend their leisure time on sunny days. • Cultural landmarks: o Yuquan Leaping Fish (1.2km): Appreciate the elegant garden inscribed by Emperor Kangxi o Yue Fei Temple (15-minute walk): A peaceful place to visit in the morning, avoiding the crowds 3. Culinary map: An in-depth experience of local cuisine • Must-try recommendations: o Breakfast nearby: Various breakfast shops with different specialties are just outside the B&B. Prices are the same as in the city center and are not adjusted due to the scenic location. o Time-honored brands in Qingzhiwu: ▪ Secret Braised Duck at PuSu Restaurant (150m) ▪ Sweet Fermented Rice Balls with Osmanthus at Nanshan Nan 4. Transportation hub: Seamless travel network • Public transportation: o Subway Line 3 Huanglong Sports Center Station (8-minute walk) o Bus 28/15/82, get off at Yuquan Station • [B&B Information] 📍 Address: No. 15 Yugu Road, Qingzhiwu, Xihu District Here, time automatically switches to 0.5x speed. When the morning mist drifts over the bamboo tips, the cup of Longjing tea on the balcony perfectly embodies the essence of Hangzhou. Bamboo Creek Nostalgia is not just a place to stay, but a local life experiment that awakens the city's memories.
