"We chose this hotel mainly because of the lovely photos online. We thought that although Tai’an itself may not have much to do, we could at least spend a relaxing afternoon enjoying the room and the courtyard before our hike.
However, the actual experience was quite different from what we expected.
In reality, the courtyard felt rather unkempt and not as inviting as shown in the photos. The hotel also seemed unusually empty—we hardly saw any other guests, and no staff around during our stay, which made the atmosphere feel somewhat quiet and unattended.
We had hoped to spend some time relaxing outdoors, but that wasn’t really possible. The wind was strong, and with the harsh sunlight, sitting outside comfortably was difficult. Dust and sand were also blowing around the courtyard.
The most uncomfortable part of the stay was that the hotel’s central air-conditioning system broke down while we were there and was only fixed around midnight. Because of the dust and the emptiness outside, we were reluctant to keep the door open for ventilation. As a result, we had to go to sleep in a stuffy and rather warm room for hours while waiting for the air-conditioning to come back on.
Overall, the stay was manageable for one night, but it did feel disappointing given how appealing the property looked in the photos. We had chosen this hotel hoping for a comfortable and relaxing stop before our Taishan climb, but unfortunately the actual experience didn’t quite match that expectation."
