"Wow!! Amazing place to stay for our stopover in Kunming. Helpful staff used Google Translate to communicate in English and were happy to do so. Arranged shuttle pickup for prompt morning time. Breakfast was delicious and peaceful. Lots of options. Only downside was the pickup shuttle at the airport. Waited. Then he had to get more people then circled back after exiting the airport to get more people. This was frustrating since it was already 11pm and needed rest."
