Everything was perfect. The staff, the people in the hostel and it was very clean. I never saw such welcoming people anywhere and they helped me with everything. It was just an amazing experience. You could also get every ticket in the hostel, you can rent a scooter and theres a pool.

Loved the laid back vibe of the village and the hotel. I was after a retreat from the city and that’s exactly what I got, didn’t want to leave! 老张 is very hospitable - always checking if you’re hungry and then will whip something up in the kitchen. Another guest that arrived said they wanted to hike some of the nearby hills so 老张 was like, ‘let’s go!’ and took us - the entrance is through someone else’s kitchen/back garden so we’d never have got access ourselves. He also mentioned he could take us to places to swim, climb etc. Really love the village atmosphere, everyone knows each other and knows the secret routes/best food spots. Reminded me of my rural village community in the UK. I was able to borrow 老张‘s road bike and cycled to the river to catch one of the rafts, it’s about a ~30min leisurely cycle to get there. There are cycle/foot paths along the river too, so another nice way to experience the scenery. The hotel itself is very quaint. I had one of the Japanese style single rooms and was very happy there, it looks exactly like the picture. They will pre-heat the bed for you in the colder months, nice touch! Water, tissues, towel etc all provided. The toilets and showers are just downstairs, a 10 second walk, and are very pleasant. The toilets are the Japanese ones with heated seats etc. The other helper is also lovely, and she packed my rucksack with fresh pomelo when I set off for my cycle excursion. They grow pomelo etc. beside the house, and also have chickens so eggs fresh too. Loved the rooftop, very zen and great view over the hills. They also have some friendly cats. Will 100% return.

The inn is very nice and the staff was really helpful. The owner speaks English which is quite handy. It is possible to have dinner and breakfast there which are also quite good. The hotel is located on the left bank of the river, this is very good to start hiking but be aware that the last boat from the town centre is around 7pm, so it is hard to stay longer in the town center

The staff was so nice and friendly and they speak really good English. They helped us with everything, like problems with our 5G internet, transfer and booking trips. The food was really delicious and they have Chinese and Western food, so a lot of choice for everyone! They take the feedback from their reviews very serious and do something about it. They gave us anything we needed to make our stay the most comfortable we could wish! Also the price was really good and we got so much. The house was really clean and hygienic and they do everything to help the environment, like no plastic bottles of water, but filtered water in glass and hot water from the solars on the roof. The house was so besutiful with the Chinese caracteristics and interior, also the garden was so romantic with fairy lights and beautiful plants and trees. There is a beautiful view of the Moon Hill and the mountains from our room and the garden, so it was lovely waking up and looking out of our window! At the end of our stay we even got a lovely goody bag!

The boss was very generous allowing us to cook outside food at night using their stove for free. They also gave us a lift by creating to and from the ferry. The whole family were very warm friendly and helpful. then there was the superb location and quiet serene atmosphere and beautiful wooden shack hotel rooms. it felt like going back in time in the best way possible A++

Friendliest hotel staff I have ever experienced. When there was a problem with the room on the last night, they gave us a free room. Excellent location outside the busy and noisy city of Yangshuo, ideal spot to explore Yulong River and the villages in either direction. You can rent an e-scooter/bike from the property for a very good price.
