Where to sleep for climbing Huangshan?

Hello,
I'm looking for a hostel near the scenic area entry and I'm confused regarding the best area to sleep in Tangkou zone (I will go there from Hongcun on day 1, then hike the mountain on day 2 and 3, then take the bus to Hangzhou early on day 4).
Indeed I can see Zhaixi, then Tangkouzhen and then Tangkoucun, not far from the scenic area entry; all three with plenty of hostels...
1. But where do the bus from Hongcun arrives?
2. Where is the long distance bus station (for Hangzhou): in Tangkouzhen I think?
3. Between Zhaixi and Tangkoucun, are there buses around 6pm?
4. Any advices on where I should sleep?
5. Should I book a Hangzhou bus at the station first thing when arriving on day 1?
Thank you.

1. The bus from Hongcun arrives at South Gate of Huangshan, the entrance.
2. Buses to Hangzhou depart from Hangzhou Terminal Bus Station in Tunxi District, the downtown area.
3. No bus between the two at present.
4. It's advised to stay near south gate if arriving from Hongcun.
5. You can buy the ticket at the bus station after visiting Huangshan.

Hello Ellie,
Thanks for the answers. So if I'm correct, I should sleep in Tangkoucun, which is about 1km of the southgate scenic area entrance. Thats' helpful.
1. As for the bus to Hangzhou, I read on various sites that there were direct buses from Tangkou (not Tunxi) to Hongzhou, but maybe these are outdated informations... Can you confirm?
2. If there are direct buses, where is the bus station they're starting from: Tangkoucun, Tangkouzhen or Zhaixi? And is it necessary to buy the ticket in advance?
3. Also, I just read in the message below from Viola that "Huangshan will open on 30th April"! I thought it was open all year round, and everyday in April! Is there a problem in 2025?!
Thank you. Regards.

Sorry that I really don't see any bus from Tangkou to Hangzhou. All of the buses depart from Huangshan Bus Terminal Station in Tunxi. Huangshan opens daily all year round but some spots inside may be closed for protection or for tourists' safety like Xihai Great Valley and Lotus Peak.
