The location is great, close to West Street, but not in the middle of the mess, so it's peaceful and easy to reach. The staff was friendly and helpful, the room was ok, but it could be cleaner. There was hair everywhere!
Response from Property: 謝謝國際友人的好評,對於你説的衞生方面的,我們以後會改進。

It’s near West Street, very central! The cleanliness is eh but fine for a night crash if you need to leave early or overnight which was my case. Be sure to take your own toiletries. I was tired to take photos, but here is one 😅 the photos online are quite accurate.

I've got a good quality for a low price. The man in the reception was very helpful. He helped me to book a train and he didn't charged me additionally for that (I heard that other hotels in China usually require to pay them a provision for booking train tickets). I booked one bed in a dorm, but nobody else was there for this night, so I had the whole room for myself. Every room has it's own bathroom. Every guest receive a hygienic utensils package (containing a comb, a toothpaste, a toothbrush, a shampoo, and a bathfoam). A room has an air-conditioner. All of these for a very low price. Hostel is located arround half hour of walking from the pier, where boats from Guilin arrive.

It is located in an alley next to the Yangshuo West Street overpass. It is not easy to find without careful searching. The multi-person room is on the 4th floor of the inn. There is no elevator and climbing the stairs is a bit laborious. The clothes are hung on the 6th floor. Although the 6-person room has a private bathroom, there is no hot water for bathing at night. The owner is reluctant to turn on the water heater on the roof because it is the off-season and there are not many people. The owner is reluctant to turn on the large water heater on the roof because it consumes a lot of electricity after turning it on last time and it cannot be turned off. I caught a cold after taking a shower for one night, and the quilt they gave me was very thin, so I just applied for a refund. The service is really not good, the hygiene is basically not cleaned, and there is no hot water. I can only help you avoid it here!

Response from Property: The air-energy water heater broke down during March 3rd. Of course, I told you that you can cancel the order for free, and it has been repaired now. You can't get a refund as you said. If you cancel the order, you won't be able to see the reviews. The six-person room is also cleaned by a professional auntie. In addition, the clothes drying area is on the seventh floor. We have winter and summer quilts, and the room is also equipped with air conditioning, including cooling and heating.

The room is clean and tidy, the mattress is thick and comfortable to sleep in. There are not many people in the off-season, and one person can use the whole room. There is hot water. The bougainvillea at the door is in bloom, very beautiful.

I almost never give a bad review to a store. But this store really makes me sad. The hygiene was very poor and our whole family felt itchy all over when we slept at night. There were many red spots on the children's bodies. I was scratching all night myself. The conditions are even worse. No drinking water, no tissues, no kettle. Disposable toothpaste and toothbrushes are really the worst. The most important thing is that he charges 350 yuan per night. It's really worse than a guest house.

Response from Property: Our inn has professional housekeepers to clean the place, and the linens are also disinfected. The picture you took shows that your bed was moved to the middle. The auntie basically doesn't move the bed when cleaning, and she didn't clean up the area between the bed and the corner. Later, I asked the aunt to clean the corners as well. Body itching is also related to personal constitution. Maybe you are allergic to the seafood you ate that day. Our other customers did not report this problem. Drinking water is not provided in the room. You can buy it at the front desk if you need it. There are tissues and kettles in the room. If you don't have them, you can ask the front desk. It is a bit of an exaggeration to say that disposable toothpaste and toothbrushes are extremely bad. The prices will increase during the National Day holidays. If you think they are expensive, it is recommended that you travel during the off-season.

Hua Man Lou Inn - Worst accommodation experience. We drove to Hua Man Lou Inn at 4 pm on October 4th. There was no one at the reception desk. We looked for staff everywhere but couldn't find them. About 20 minutes later, someone came and said The boss invited him to help temporarily. He didn't know anything when asked. He only said: "I'm not the boss." There is a parking space at the door of the inn. He urged us to pay 30 yuan for parking from the beginning to the end. He didn't care about other services, such as the sanitation of the room, etc. I don't want to elaborate. There were no towels or bath towels in the room. I went downstairs to ask the staff for them. The staff said there were no bath towels, but they had towels they had just found (street stall goods). The toilet seat was also broken. I didn't pay attention and almost fell on it when I sat on it. The butt is broken, I am speechless

Response from Property: I got to know the situation from the front desk. He has been here all the time. Our inn does not provide free parking spaces. It is also stated on the Ctrip platform. We also told you when you called that it costs 30 parking fees to park in front of our inn. It is considered cheap during holidays, the parking lot opposite is at least 50+. He said you have been arguing about the parking fee for more than 20 minutes. There is only one parking space in front of our inn, and other customers park in the parking lot opposite at their own expense. I know the toilet seat you mentioned is 505, because it was damaged by the previous customer in this room and they didn't have time to replace it. You can just pull the toilet seat up and don't need to use the toilet seat. Bath towels are in short supply during holidays, so we will give you new towels.

The price-performance ratio is very high, very suitable for people who are traveling alone on a budget. The location is easy to find, right next to West Street, and the landlord is very welcoming! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

I can only say that it is the peak tourist season and the prices are cheap, so there can only be such prime numbers.

The bed conditions in their home are very poor! The room smelled musty and there were mosquitoes, as if no one had stayed there for a long time. I had an allergic reaction the next day. The sanitary facilities are very poor. There is nothing, including hair dryer, paper towels, household supplies, mosquito coils, etc. The experience is extremely bad! I also paid 134 yuan for the room, what a rip off! I knew it would be uncertain.

Response from Property: The room is cleaned by the housekeeper every day. Each room is equipped with a hair dryer. If you can't find one, you can ask the front desk and they will prepare it for you. The room is equipped with electric mosquito coils. If there are mosquitoes, you can ask the front desk for mosquito coils, paper towels, and toiletries. The bed room is not equipped with them, so you can buy them from the front desk. They are provided at a cost price of 1 yuan per set. It provides 24-hour hot water, private bathroom, and air conditioning. The holiday prices follow the market. If you think it is expensive, you can consider visiting during the off-season when the prices are cheaper.

The room was old, the floor was not swept, and the bathroom didn't show any signs of being cleaned.
No tissues, toiletries, or room cards are provided.

There are a few room cards missing because some customers took them and didn't return them, but it doesn't affect the check-in and they will be replenished later.

During the 10.1 period, I chose an inn with a super high cost-effectiveness. It has an excellent geographical location and is within walking distance of Yangshuo West Street, with convenient transportation. The environment is also very clean and tidy. The girls who shared the room with me were all very nice, and I met a lot of new friends during the trip. The overall style of the inn is very nice. There is a small bar on the first floor where you can sit and rest when you are tired, or chat with the boss (ps: the boss has a super nice personality). The surrounding environment and facilities are also very complete. You can find all kinds of delicious food within 100m of walking out. The environment is not very noisy, and the location of the inn is also easy to find! If I have the chance to come to Yangshuo again, it will definitely be my first choice! !

When we first arrived, the guy at the front desk was very enthusiastic and asked us whether we should choose the 2nd or 3rd floor, but there were no TVs in the rooms on the 2nd and 3rd floors. The rooms on the 2nd floor were not very clean, and the floors felt scratchy. The environmental sanitation needs to be improved, but the guy The service attitude was good, so I rented a motorcycle with him for one day and charged a 200 deposit. There was no difficulty in refunding the motorcycle deposit when I checked out, which was good.

Response from Property: The large bed room, which is around 50, has air conditioning and hot water. There are not many people watching TV. The original old-fashioned TV was removed. There is a dedicated aunt who cleans the house. If you have a lot of requirements, it is not recommended to stay in Huamanlou. You should stay in a five-star hotel. It feels like you came here to find trouble. I took pictures of the broken window of the house opposite. You just had to close the curtains, so I asked you to choose one on the second floor.
