Wulin Qingpu, living in a culture and time

I first learned about the Qingpu Cultural Hostel brand many years ago at the Nanjing Tulou. Many years later, it seems that I have also seen it in Yangzhou and Wuzhou. This time in the Wulin ancient village of Jinjiang, Quanzhou, I finally had the opportunity to experience this always low-key yet high-end cultural accommodation space. If it's just for the sake of accommodation, personally, I don't think the price of over 2000 for Qingpu is worth it. However, as mentioned earlier, it is not just a hotel or a homestay, but a cultural space centered around accommodation. For example, the Qingpu I stayed in at Wulin is first and foremost a renovation and design of the old houses of the Wulin ancient village, creating a comfortable space inside while maintaining the original appearance as much as possible. Its front desk, restaurant, and guest rooms are scattered among these ancient village houses. This allows you to switch between different spaces while deeply experiencing the local culture and memories. Secondly, apart from hotel accommodation, there are cultural activities for different age groups, such as the silver beating in Wulin this time, and other activities that we didn't have time to experience. Returning to the hardware aspect of Qingpu, it can basically be said to be impeccable. However, based on our experience this time, the software aspect may indeed need more thought. For example, the dining environment of the restaurant we ate in is truly impeccable in design, but whether it's the water stains on the washbasin or the stacking of some miscellaneous items, it made the high-end feel of the 2000+ price instantly drop to just a tail number. And the place where the trash can was placed in our room had various stains and spots on the wall, which really reached a level that could make people uncomfortable. As for the service experience this time, the young man who took us to our room was really not up to par in terms of smiling service. Overall, this was not a perfect experience, but for this brand, I would rather believe it is an exception. In other cities, if I have the chance, I think I would like to experience it again.
