🏨 Accommodation Guide:
✅Baiyun Villa: Prime location but dated facilities
✅Lavande Hotel: Great value but no mountain views

⚠️ Survival Tips:
1. Non-slip shoes essential! Stone steps are slippery

3. Mosquitoes are vicious! Pack strong repellent
🌱 Honest Impressions:
- Oxygen therapy is incredibly healing! Air tastes sweeter
- Prices are surprisingly reasonable, some snacks cheaper than downtown
- But avoid holidays - crowds are no joke...
