The Xucheng Jingyu Family Pool Homestay (Taoxichuan Cultural and Creative Street Branch) is truly amazing! It’s located at No. 30 Chengjialing, Fangjiashan Village, Jingcheng Street, Zhushan District, very close to Taoxichuan. Just a few minutes’ walk in the morning to get there, and super convenient to return after visiting the pottery shops.
As soon as we arrived, the front desk staff was very enthusiastic, helped carry our luggage, the check-in process was super smooth, and they reminded us of the breakfast time. The most thoughtful part was that they gave us a travel guide recommending many local foods and attractions. The room has smart home features; voice control for lights and curtains is incredibly convenient!
In the afternoon, we went swimming in the pool; the water was very clean, and the scenery by the pool was perfect for photos—every snap looks like a masterpiece. In the evening, we worked out in the gym, which is well-equipped. The hotel has an elevator, which is a huge plus for those of us carrying luggage.
The room was cleaned meticulously, the bedding was clean and comfortable, and they even provided disposable bath towels and toilet seat covers. The air conditioning cools quickly, hot water comes instantly, and there are several charging ports by the bed—perfect for those of us who need to charge our phones!
Whether it’s the greenery in the public areas or the soft furnishings in the room, everything exudes a comfortable style that makes you feel very relaxed. Sitting in the homestay’s small courtyard in the evening, enjoying the breeze, even the fatigue was greatly reduced. When the staff saw me looking for a charging cable, they immediately brought one over—details like this really add extra points!
This was the room I was most satisfied with during my trip with friends. Next time I come to Jingdezhen, I will definitely choose this place again!
