Nanjing, a city blending history and modernity, always makes you want to stay longer. This hidden gem homestay discovered near Xinjiekou – Journey Healing Lodge, is the perfect remedy for urban fatigue! For just around 100 RMB per person, you can stay in the city center with "sleep technology" included – the value is unreal 💯
✨ Soundproofing Tech
The entire space features 7-layer soundproof materials + double-glazed windows, with soundproof strips even on the window frames (tested: couldn't hear the late-night barbecue stall noise at 3 AM). Zero-pressure mattress with memory foam pillows feels like sinking into clouds – this insomniac actually slept through till morning!
💐 Healing Common Areas
The lobby resembles a mini botanical garden, offering free freshly brewed coffee and over a dozen floral/fruit teas (must-try the hibiscus tea for its sweet-sour kick). The bookshelf in the corner is stocked with mental wellness reads – finished half of *The Camellia Stationery Shop* while waiting for friends.
📍 Prime Location
• 5-min walk to Shanghai Road Metro (Lines 1/4)
• 10 mins to Xinjiekou shopping district (Deji Plaza/Golden Eagle)
• 15 mins to Presidential Palace/1912 Block
• Room windows frame the Zifeng Tower light show
🧳 Thoughtful Services
24/7 butlers respond instantly (even patiently recommend authentic salted duck takeout). Welcome kit includes disinfectant wipes + earplugs. Laundry room with dryer on top floor – a boon for long stays.
💡 Neighborhood Gems
• Nightlife: Nan Tai Xiang's café-bar street starts at the alleyway
• Breakfast hack: Butler-recommended nearby sticky rice roll stall (salted egg yolk upgrade is a must)
• Culture fix: 10-min walk to Pioneer Books Wutaishan flagship store
⚠️ Pro Tips

A 100-RMB stay that feels like 1,000 – don’t forget to take home notebook and tea leaves to extend the healing vibes~
