This summer travel supply station offers 24-hour Luckin Coffee!

During scorching summer afternoons in Chongqing, while exploring Ciqikou, I always longed for a "cooling supply station." The Holiday Inn Express right next to the ancient town perfectly fulfilled this wish. Walking into the lobby, I was surprised to see Xu Xin! (A life-size cutout, haha.) Immediately snapped a fun photo! When the front desk staff handed us the room key, they casually shared a hidden perk: 24-hour access to the Holiday Inn Express × Luckin Coffee collaboration. They even gave us two traditional ice pops to beat the heat. Returning to the room that night, we found a goodnight drink already prepared, instantly melting away the summer fatigue. The river-view room was an unexpected delight! The glistening Jialing River outside the window and the lively atmosphere of the opposite shore perfectly captured Chongqing's blend of "strength and softness." Heading downstairs made it super convenient to explore the ancient town, visit the 1949 Theater, or even hike up Gele Mountain for some famous spicy chicken—truly a one-stop spot to experience local flavors. Breakfast featured an authentic bowl of Chongqing noodles with peas and minced pork. Slurping noodles while enjoying the river view? That’s the ultimate carb-loaded happiness! More than just a place to stay, this felt like a tailor-made "pit stop" for travelers, blending convenience, scenery, and thoughtful details seamlessly. Turns out, Xu Xin’s Holiday Inn Express is just "too all-rounded"!
