Is the 1,000+ room fee worth it?
After returning home from Yunnan, I calmed down and could settle the accounts:
1. Scenery + film, worth 500.
To be honest, isn’t the reason for coming to Tengchong just to see the beautiful scenery? The scenery in the villa area on the mountain is really unparalleled. You can watch the clouds during the day, the clouds in the evening, and the lights at night. You can sit on the balcony or the roof and pass by in a daze after two hours and a few bottles of wine. I had hesitated before to live in the ancient town or in the villa area, but unfortunately I chose the mountain. As for the effect of the film, you can see for yourself. . .
2. Private hot spring bath, worth 500.
My feeling these days is that I am half exhausted after playing outside for a day and walking 20,000 steps (the sun in Tengchong is really harsh). After dinner, I come back to soak in a private hot spring and drink wine on the balcony. At first glance, it is The lights all over the city are so nourishing!
3. Service, worth 500.
I found that Dehong, Tengchong and Baoshan are very different from Dali and Lijiang. The service quality and service attitude are very good. Everyone is kind and friendly, and they will try their best to satisfy you no matter what you ask for. As for this B&B, when we come back from visiting every day, making tea and chatting with the proprietress, Sister Yu, is really a must-have part. It is both relaxing and listening to a lot of local things. Where to eat, drink and have fun? Just ask Sister Yu. If you listen to her, you won't be surprised. The service provided by the proprietress was very attentive. I secretly ordered roses for the receptionist and gave them to her. The next day the proprietress changed the flower arrangement in the room into roses.
4. Cost-effective!
When looking for accommodation in Tengchong, you will definitely find high-end hotels such as Bodu, Shuashu, and Banyan Tree. The "public area" decoration, outdoor scenery and atmosphere of those hotels are really great, but the room prices, which are easily 2500+, 3000+ or even 7000+, are really scary. If you are like me and use the "public areas" of hotels very rarely and don't have any special pursuits, then stay in a B&B with a cost of more than 1,000 and then go "touring" in the public areas of those luxury hotels. If it doesn't work out, just order a cup of coffee that costs tens of yuan and sit there for as long as you want. Especially Bodu and Shuangshu, they were originally located in the villa area. Within a few minutes of strolling there, they treated themselves as visiting tourist attractions. This method is really cost-effective! You can have enjoyment and experience without having to bear the "luxury" cost, hehe. . .
PS: Banyan Tree is far and remote in Mayu Valley (in the village). Zizi Cliff can protect you from lightning, but it is right next to a big rock wall. Although the pictures on the Internet look good, it is actually a trap!
