📍 Location & First Impressions
Nestled in Daxing’s Huangcun District, YAZHI Cloud Hotel is a hidden gem for budget-savvy travelers. Just two bus stops from Zaoyuan Subway Station and a stone’s throw from shopping hubs like Huiju Mall, it’s a weekend warrior’s dream. The lobby’s artful decor and soothing signature scent (shoutout to that luxe lobby fragrance) set the tone for a stay that punches way above its ¥166/night price tag.
🛏️ Room Upgrade & Amenities: The Unexpected Perks
We booked the YAZHI Preferred King Bed Room, but check this—the front desk upgraded us for free without the usual “please leave a review” spiel. The room? Spacious, sleek, and packed with smart touches like motion-sensor bathroom lights (fancy, huh?). For a sub-¥200 stay, the modern fixtures and plush bedding felt like a steal.
♨️ Hot Spring Adjacent: The Ultimate Relaxation Hack
Here’s the kicker: YAZHI Tangquan (hot spring) is literally next door. After a day of braving Beijing’s winter, soaking in toasty pools or hitting the sauna is a no-brainer. Pro tip: The spring’s free fruit and ice cream bar is a mood booster.
🍽️ Food & Logistics: The Quirks
- No robot butlers: Fetching takeout means a quick trip to the lobby shelf (old-school, but manageable).
- Tiny toiletries: The shampoo bottles are one-wash wonders, but front desk staff happily handed extras when asked.
- Thermostat woes: Rooms run hot (think t-shirt weather in December)—blame the central heating. Crack the window if you dare, but expect lobby chatter.
💡 The Verdict: Why This Hotel Deserves Your Wallet
For a weekend under ¥200, YAZHI Cloud Hotel delivers design, comfort, and convenience rarely seen at this price point. Sure, it’s not downtown, but with Zaoyuan Station nearby and Tangquan R&R on-site, it’s a no-brainer for couples or solo adventurers.
Final Rating: 4.5/5
PS: If you’re into aesthetic lobbies and surprise upgrades, this one’s a yes. Just pack light—those toiletries won’t last! 😉
