Four. Accommodation and transportation

stay

① Xiamen Yayuan Hotel (Bashi Ferry Shop on Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street): The hotel is near Bashi, with a good geographical location, clean rooms and high cost performance.

② Home Inn (Zhongshan Road, Xiamen University): The hotel is close to Xiamen University. The front desk service is very good, the room is clean and hygienic, and the price/performance ratio is not good, but the room is not very big. It is not recommended if the room size is required.

③ Haijing Luxury Serviced Apartment (Twin Towers): The hotel is located in Shimao Strait Building, Siming District, adjacent to Siming Campus of Xiamen University of Technology. The facilities in the room are too complete, such as tea-making space, bathtub, boundless sea view, mini refrigerator and big bed. The hotel is located on the 52nd floor with a wider view.

④ Hint 1: In addition to Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street, girls who want to see the sea in the early morning can choose hotels near Xiamen University. Baicheng beach is beautiful, and those with higher budget can live in the World Trade Organization. High-altitude hotels are also a good choice.

⑤ Tip 2: If you are a poor traveller, a student party, or don't have too many requirements for accommodation, you can choose Zeng Cuo's accommodation with a lower budget, which is relatively cheap.

⑥ Tip 3: If you have high accommodation requirements and want to see the sea, it is not recommended to stay in Zengcuo, because the climate is humid and there are many mosquitoes. Even the best homestay is not as clean and hygienic as the hotel, and the waiting time for take-out is long.

⑦ Tip 4: Living near Xiamen University has many advantages, such as many scenic spots, delicious food and convenient transportation, such as Shapowei, World Trade Center and Yanwu Bridge. In the evening, you can blow the sea breeze and take a walk on the Yanwu Bridge. It's really romantic ~ you can choose to live in Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street for a while before moving here.
