LLeo25This stay was wonderful. Sadly we arrived late and couldn’t make the most of the rooms and surroundings, but the morning was beautiful. The people were kind and helpful, and some have a sense of humour.
Very clean rooms. Great view. Good tea set which was gratefully used for a peaceful moment with the view when I had to recharge.
Beds were comfy.
Breakfast was really tasty—and vegetarian. Good local tea on offer!
The rooms on the ground floor are clearly non-smoking and don’t have a whiff of cigarette about them (thankful lungs, eyes and skin). All rooms we saw were beautiful and clean. Shower was hot and good pressure.
Coming in late was not an issue.
Thank you so much for the care and kindness!
PPockyBackpackThe owner of this place is incredibly kind and friendly. I felt an instant connection and could talk comfortably, even though we had never met before — maybe because we share many similar interests. The accommodation is located in a ******* village and decorated in a mix of ******* and modern styles. Every item is part of the owner’s personal collection, and the entire place was decorated by the owner with great care and attention to detail.
All the furniture and amenities — from the soap to the electrical appliances — are of excellent quality. Even the yogurt in the fridge was delicious. What I loved most were the homemade breakfast and dinner, which were both absolutely delicious. At night, I had a great conversation with the owner about local travel routes, followed their suggestions the next day, and it turned out to be perfect. For me, it was a truly meaningful one-night stay. The owner also maintains the place spotlessly clean, and you can conveniently park your car right in front of the hotel.
ผผู้เข้าพักMy husband and I had a wonderful one-night stay in this hostel. Upon check-in, the hostel automatically upgraded our room to the next bigger size, without any additional charge. The room is super clean with perfect white sheets and towels. The hostess then introduced us to hike up from her hostel. The hike was easy with a few mooing cows walked past us, and the historic trees were just amazingly beautiful, not to mention the thousand-year's old towers to admire for. After the hike, we then sat down comfortably in the dining room to enjoy a simple but tasteful home-cooked meal. That night, I slept the best and longest during my entire 6-day's trip. Next morning, after a bowl of hot noodles with eggs and veggies, the hostess invited us to walk up to her own tower and even offered to take photos for us from the best spot.
I highly recommended this hostel.
JJuan Manuel CaldaroniWe stayed for two nights and the view from the room is stunning. The tibetan-styled decoration is amazing and makes all the difference, but there were also a few downsides which I have to mention.
- For someone that does not speak Chinese, it is very hard to find. So we will write here how we did: from Tagong we took a shared vehicle to Bamei. From there, we took another shared vechicle to Danba, and from Danba, there are rural shared vehicles that will take you to Jiaju. I attach the image of the road sign where you need to get off. There is an entry fee to Jiaju town.
- Regarding this rural vehicle, comes the biggest disappointment of our stay, as we asked the owner of the hotel to call a vehicle for us (there is no other way to leave) and he replied “you can look for yourself and if you cannot find one, I will help you”… without a Chinese phone number and without speaking Chinese, it is impossible to call a local driver. So we mentioned this, and he called one driver. When we asked how much we should pay, he say 50 yuan for two people, same as he told us to pay on the way here, but his wife was there and got very angry at him because the real price was 15 yuan per person, and he was part of the rip off.
The lady was very friendly and helpful, on the other side, so we want to thank her for her help as she tried to help us.
Despite this, we still reccommend you to come as it is a beautiful place and there are walking paths that you can use to walk everywhere in town.
The shared toilet was not a problem, hot water works well.
