We love that we are inside TongLi which allows us to visit the town till late in the evening to see the lanterns and also early in the morning where the streets are quieter with less people/tourists. In the morning, we were able to witness how the locals live which is rather authentic in my opinion. The Inn's architecture is very interesting and could be a good spot for Hanfu photo-taking. The beds were fantastic.

Perhaps the communication to reach the destination could be improved as it was quite confusing and rather frustrating to reach. We were a big group of 11 people with toddlers and elderlies so we feel that this inn could be more suitable for families with older children or backpackers. It wasn't easy to transport the luggages as the cobbled streets were uneven and bumpy, not to mention the need to bring them up and down the bridges, unless you are willing to pay 30CNY for a rickshaw to carry your luggages (max 3). The rooms we had (level 1) seemed vacant for some time as we can smell the humidity when we entered and they were a little dirty in some areas (bathroom).
