Reviews
On the morning of our last day, at 8:00 AM, they asked if we wanted to extend our stay. I said I wasn't sure yet. The front desk staff then gave me a sarcastic remark, asking if we could be sure about 2026. Check-out time was 10:00 AM, but because we were in a hurry to get to the exhibition, we hoped to negotiate for a late check-out at noon (which is the normal check-out time in China). The front desk staff said we had to participate in a conference they organized (to meet KPIs and recruit more people) to extend our check-out time, so we had to check out first. The resort itself was nice, but the service was absolutely terrible! Don't come here!
I was often worried because I didn't understand English, but the staff were very polite and helpful. Even when it was difficult to communicate, they smiled and explained things clearly, which put me at ease. I was able to stay comfortably thanks to their attentive attention to detail, and I'm truly grateful. I would definitely like to use your services again if I have the opportunity.

Finally, service was slow. It took over 1.5 hours to have breakfast. However, our waitress was nice.
