“Electric blanket with a showbiz view!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 6, 2013

The location of this hostel is really good, hidden in one of the little lanes yet close to the main tourist area. The rooftop bar offers an amazing view of the river and town - a photographers paradise at sunset. The room we stayed in was OK - the bed had clean linen and something I've now fallen in love with - an electric blanket! This is first place I've stayed that has had one - I think all hostels should get them (take note other hostels!!) The AC was also a great heater too - all in all I was sooooo warm in this hostel which was much needed as you can get pretty chilly walking around a town where no-one has heating and the doors are always wide open. The downside of this hostel, and the reason I didn't score it as excellent, was the bathroom. It was a bit dirty. The door had obvious grime on it and the shower curtain was mouldy. It was a cheap stay so I guess you get what you pay for but another thing that I didn't like, a pet hate of mine is, the toilet seat was too small for the pan. I've been using a squat toilet for the last 5 months so was really looking forward to using a western one. Oh well! Despite this the staff on reception were brilliant - they spoke really good English and were friendly and helpful. However, in my opinion, the bar staff need to get a taste in good music ;)

“Amazing Roof-Top Bar, Great Location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 6, 2012

If only because of the roof top bar I would highly reccomend this place. 6 floor building offers the best views of Yangshuo and surroundings. This hostel seems very new. Clean ang big dorm rooms with AC. Showers are very clear and reliable.

Definitely a place for you If you are looking for a good time in Yangshuo. Perfect to meet other travelers. They offer many activities and trips.

“Great location and views”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 4, 2012

A lovely hostel situated in a great spot off West street, the staff Vivian, Michael and Sophie are lovely very helpful and attentive. It is quiet has great views and the roof top is lovely for night time drinks and day time internet usage. while I was the there the wifi on level 3 was not functioning but I just chose to work on the roof, a bonus with the surrounding mountains and river view and fresh air. Having free laundry was the best thing, breakfast was not free for my booking. My only criticism would be that although the bathrooms are clean the toilets could do with a good scrub lol, and the upstairs showers needs to be rid of insects. Its nothing major really. Overall the view, fresh air, mountains and rooftop will win you over.

Room Tip: Level 3 dorm 302 nice views and no noise from the rooftop bar.
