Hidden in Pingjiang Road, this creamy courtyard captures the gentleness of Jiangnan

In the historic veins of Suzhou's Pingjiang Road, I've quietly tucked away a creamy dream—**Pillow River Homestay**. With 7 rooms, a cozy courtyard, and a terrace where you can almost touch the stars, this isn’t just another Instagram hotspot but your own private "Jiangnan nest" you’ll want to keep all to yourself. **Creamy Aesthetic Meets Old Suzhou, Sparking Gentle Warmth** The entire homestay is bathed in soft, low-saturation cream tones, as if the old house has been wrapped in a soft glow. Wooden furniture, rattan lampshades, linen bedding—every detail is pure comfort. Yet the carved window lattices and the ancient well in the courtyard whisper reminders: this is still the soul of thousand-year-old Pingjiang Road. **7 Rooms, 7 Ways to Experience Jiangnan** From a solo traveler’s tatami room to a couple’s king bed and a family suite, each space hides its own thoughtful touches. **The Courtyard and Terrace: Lazier Than Poetry** The courtyard is the true heart of it all. Sip Biluochun tea to the melody of birds at dawn, or lounge in a chair as afternoon shadows creep across white walls. The terrace is perfect for evenings—grab a bottle of osmanthus rice wine and watch Pingjiang Road’s lanterns light up like a galaxy, while your rooftop echoes only with the chime of wind bells. **Why Stay Here?** - **Prime Location**: Steps from Pingjiang Road’s main street, yet tucked into a quiet alley—like stepping through a portal. - **Concierge-Level Service**: Free hand-drawn maps, plus insider tips like "which pan-fried buns burst with juice." - **Pet-Friendly**: My golden retriever, "A Su," often greets guests in the courtyard—feel free to pet! **A Small, Selfish Wish** I almost didn’t write this—afraid my little courtyard would lose its secrecy. But seeing the lights glow at dusk, I realized: good stories deserve to be shared. **Book Here:** [Contact Info] P.S.: Mention "I read the note" for a free handmade osmanthus cake—sweetness guaranteed.
