Opening the window reveals lush greenery stretching beyond, and if you're lucky, you might spot deer or peacocks wandering through the scenic area — it’s pure magic. What truly stood out? This place welcomes pets! I met so many adorable furry friends — Corgis, Poodles, Bichons — all well-behaved and full of personality. Just sitting there petting them made me forget about leaving 😂. The staff were incredibly warm and attentive from check-in to check-out, always ready to help with a smile. And honestly, they know how to cater to guests who appreciate little luxuries: afternoon craft sessions let you make something sweet to take home, and in the evening, the front desk even offers free sweet soup — smooth, not overly sugary, perfect after a long day of exploring. The restaurant, Pipa Residence, serves an amazing breakfast with great variety and delicious flavors, enjoyed while soaking in views of Zhongshan Mountain. Everything about this stay — the atmosphere, the service, the thoughtful touches — was flawless. If I ever come back to Nanjing, this will be my first choice.
