Be cautious when booking. If you have no other options, be sure to speak with the hostess. She has a poor understanding, acts impulsively, and acts without regard for consequences.
1. No rooms available upon arrival. We booked two rooms for our off-road trip, but only one was available. It's likely they rented it out at an inflated price. According to the host, this wasn't just us; at least one other person also had their room sold out, meaning they overbooked by two rooms. This isn't a one-off incident!
2. Asking for a surcharge. This place asked for a surcharge without prior notice. In the end, after discussing it with the hostess, they refunded 50 yuan (room rate was 160 yuan per room, plus breakfast was 10 yuan per person, totaling 30 yuan, equivalent to half of the room rate). I heard from runners staying elsewhere that they didn't charge extra for arriving late. Some hosts who live farther away offered free shuttle services to the starting point. By the way, there's a place that charges two bowls of noodles for 10 yuan, but here they charge 10 yuan per bowl. Apparently, another place across the street doesn't charge extra, so keep an eye out for it.
3. Bad attitude. The man's attitude was extremely awful, his words were incoherent, and normal communication was impossible. Those who believe in "less is more" should think twice!
I hope the behavior of a few individuals won't tarnish Jinshanling's reputation. Overall, the people on this off-road trip were very kind and warm, and I heard some very sincere stories about the hospitality of the shops!
