I visited Wenling on my Great Hop Forward Southern Tour because I had believed there was a craft brewery in the city. I chose the My Home Fashion Boutique Hotel since it was a budget hotel within walking distance to the brewery. I booked a Boutique Single Room via Trip.com. Breakfast was included in the hotel price. Arriving from Taizhou by high-speed train, I took a taxi from the train station to the hotel. It took over 30 minutes because of heavy traffic. At one point, following our progress on Baidu Maps, it looked like we were a passing kidney stone! I was given the “Taylor Swift Room” on the fourth floor. It had a stylishly-decorated modern interior with a queen bed, desk, desktop computer, television, and air conditioner. There were no closet or wardrobe, only a clothes rack. The bathroom had an interesting layout where the sink and vanity were open to the room. The toilet and shower, however, were in separate alcoves with exterior windows on either side. Unfortunately, after scouring the neighbourhood for two hours, I didn’t find the brewery. It was probably closed. I returned to the hotel to turn in for the night and had a peaceful sleep. In the morning, I went downstairs to the breakfast room. It was buffet style with no Western food, just the Chinese classics -- congee, sweet tofu milk, boiled eggs, steamed buns (mantou), stir-fried vegetables, and condiments (pickles, peanuts). I had a satisfying breakfast. Then, after packing, checked out for my onward journey to Wenzhou. For those considering this hotel, who may find it appropriate to their budgets and location suitable, I would recommend it as a place that I would stay at again in similar circumstances.…
