Xiamen Orange Sea Homestay

Superb friendly and helpful front desk, definitely will stay here again when travelling in xiamen, recommend, first review

Near the most important attractions. International travelers, their outlets are not compatible with type c plugs (Europe, South America, Asia), so you mostly will need an adapter. They also have a laundry, nice for those doing long trips.

Although not in the historic district, the homestay is a short walk to the seaside. Nearby are many dining places as well as shops. The room was clean, but the public area, especially the tables in the lobby where we can eat, were not clean. I had to throw away other peoples' trash. The service was excellent at the front desk. The ladies working the day I arrived were super-friendly, very patient, and full of good humor at my not-very-good-Chinese. We used a translation app to communicate, and they were able to inform me about all my questions. One surprising thing is about the breakfast. I was surprised that the breakfast is just a bag of food delivered to my door, from some other restaurant! It was sufficient and delicious, but I had to clean my own table in order to find a place to eat in the lobby. A better idea might be to eat the breakfast in your room, but I only had a tiny table in my room. Overall, this is a good value with friendly staff.
