GGuest UserThe B&B is located in a villa complex. The main gate is a five-minute walk from the South Gate of Shuhe Ancient Town, and the location is accurate. You can park your car right in front of the B&B. There's also a back gate in the complex, and once you exit, the East Gate of Shuhe Ancient Town is just across the road.
Service: The owner was incredibly warm and friendly, offering tips and advice for sightseeing, just like family. The auntie's mixed sauce rice noodles were delicious and everything was clean and hygienic. Highly recommend!

GGuest UserThe host is a middle-aged lady who speaks softly and is very considerate. She will contact you in advance to let you know the check-in time to avoid being away from the hotel. She will also give you some general tips on how to avoid pitfalls in Lugu Lake. She is a bit of a clean freak, so both the public area and the room are kept very clean.

GGuest UserThe room was spacious and clean, and there's a large common balcony. The bathroom facilities were also spacious, with no insects in the toilet, and toiletries and toilet paper provided. This is the best value for money in Lijiang.

AAlice Kang88The location is near to HuTuWo farm which is walkable 15 mins, it's about 40 mins +- if you take a taxi from LiJiang Ancient to BaiSha Ancient Town.
We enjoy the famous local speciality - rose bun by ManTou Shiren and XiaoLongBao and GuanTangBao nearby.
This hostel is located at BaiSha Ancient Town which have a perfect scenery view for Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.
But too bad there is bad weather when we arrive there so we couldnot have a clear view but we do enjoy the stay there.
But outside the room is open living area with many trees and we found out small insect appear in our room that cause us very scary and could not sleep well but the PIC did come to help and take off the insect after non-stop several calls at 10.30pm 😬
The photos with animal is in HuTuWo which is walkable 15 mins from this hostel.

GGuest UserI went for it for the price, but still some lacking things surprised me. The bed was hard, the walls in the room were mostly dirty and stained from both human use and mosquito splatters. There was rarely someone available for inquiries and the outside toilet was a big downside, since it was quite cold, especially at night. Having a kitchen to use was definitely a plus and the rooftop areas were pretty nice, although messy. I was sad to see all the animal they have spend the whole day caged or chained 😔
8.3/10
GGuest UserThe room is clean and hygienic. It's my first time in a youth hostel. The atmosphere is great. The owners are very enthusiastic. There are shared dining activities at noon and in the evening. The taste is also very good. There are many people and it's lively. Many people come here to travel alone. They have a lot of fun here. If you come alone to travel, you can't go wrong staying at TravelJi Youth Hostel!

GGuest UserThe door of the female four-person room could not be closed and opened as soon as the wind blew. I wanted to give a bad review directly, but I thought I should communicate first. So after the communication, the boss changed the room. The door could be closed, but it could not be locked. I just pressed the handle from the outside and the door opened. There was no room card or key, and the door could not be locked. I asked the boss if all the rooms here were like this? The boss said yes, and said that there was surveillance. I was convinced and had nothing to say. He also changed me to another four-person room. I was the only one living there, and it was indeed a single room for one person. Although the price was cheap and it was in the scenic area, I just asked that the door could be locked, not that anyone could open it from the outside. Am I asking too much? I hope the store can repair the door lock in the future, install a lock and match it with a key or room card. It doesn't cost that much, right? The bathroom is relatively old, the walls are moldy, and the facilities are old, but I can accept it. It's okay to take a shower and wash, but it doesn't look comfortable. After all, it's in the scenic area, and it costs a lot to redecorate. But the door lock can't cost that much, right? I feel unsafe. I am afraid of being hit on the waist while sleeping. If you don't believe me, you can go to the store to see if what I said is true or not before booking. But the price is indeed cheap, but I don't think it is necessary to live in Shuhe Ancient Town. There is nothing to visit in this scenic spot. There is no need to come here from a long distance. Lijiang Ancient Town and Shahe Ancient Town are better than this. I don't know if other standard rooms and double bed rooms also have door cards and keys. Anyone can open the door from the outside. But to be honest, the courtyard environment of the hotel is really good. Anyone who sees the courtyard should like it. There are many trees and many tables and chairs to sit in the small courtyard. It is very comfortable and very comfortable. There are two large beds in the public space of the courtyard. It is really comfortable to lie down. That courtyard is really good, and there are cute cats, especially cute and soft fur. There is also a washing machine that seems to be 10 yuan per bucket, which is too expensive, but I didn't scan the code. Maybe no one saw it in the middle of the night and didn't ask me to charge. I still thank the store for letting me wash my clothes for free.

GGuest UserThe transportation is very convenient. The aunt is a know-it-all and very helpful! You can ask her about food and entertainment (avoid many pitfalls). Bokebi is also cute. When you have nothing to do, you can play with the dog in the youth hostel and exercise. It's great!

GGuest UserUncles and aunts are very good, the room is clean and tidy, it is OK from the ancient city, it can be reached on foot, but the toiletries are a bit scrawled, the paper cup is broken once the water is received, there is nothing wrong with other places, and it is recommended
