|A treasured little courtyard hidden in the mountains, the most beautiful sunset B&B! . Recommended | A treasure yard hidden in the mountains (no wide view) This is the first time I want to recommend a B&B!! First of all, the location is very easy to find. You can navigate directly to the door of Grandpa Niu’s small courtyard. There are special parking spaces at the door, about four or five. The courtyards are all next to each other and the layout of each courtyard is very comfortable. This homestay has three courtyards, and each courtyard has about three bedrooms. Environment, you can see the layout inside from the pictures, it is very comfortable and warm. Second, the owner of this B&B is very enthusiastic, friendly and simple. We were greeted by an uncle, who should be the owner of this courtyard. He was very attentive and waited for us to check in. He also prepared fruits and snacks for us and delivered breakfast in the morning. There was also a sister who was very nice. The third is that the environment of the homestay is particularly good. It is very clean inside, and every room is cleaned very well. There is central air conditioning inside, which is very warm. The owner will turn on the air conditioner in advance, so there is no need to worry about the cold in winter. There is a kitchen and a living room. All the necessary equipment, such as plates and seasonings, are prepared. If you want to cook, there is no problem at all. There is also a terrace upstairs where you can barbecue and drink tea together in the yard. Fourthly, although this B&B is located in the village of Dananpo, you don’t have to worry about being bored. There are many places to visit near the village, including a study room, which is about a hundred or two hundred meters away. The people in the village are very simple and lovely. It is really a treasure place suitable for friends, couples and families to visit together. Finally, I came here with my boyfriend to celebrate my birthday. We can prepare the ingredients in advance when cooking by ourselves, and of course we can also order food!!! I highly recommend it. It takes one hour from Xinxiang and one hour from Zhengzhou. The price is reasonable and it is fast.
