Terrible One of the worse hostel i've been in. Dirty, wc was broken, they didn't do anything to repair it. A big stain of humidity on the wall next to bed. I moved bed, really dirty under it. Damp bed linen. The cleaner was always connected to internet so customers couldn't use it. Very bad english at reception desk. Very noise place. Difficult to get a good rest. The food at bar wasn't bad. Young waitress very pleasant although she didn't spoke english. At least someone friendly. I suggest not to stay in this hostel at all. — b112 , Spanish (2009-05-10) Extremely negative experience The first night I arrived, the person acting as manager took me to a bar, tried to get me drunk, and then said he wanted to "show me the river." So he brought me to a very dark place, and tried very hard to kiss me. After solidly refusing and walking away (though I didn't know where I was going), he said that oh, I must not be drunk. Great way to admit you're trying to take advantage of me! Besides that, they will try to cheat you out of your money from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave. I booked a plane ticket through them, and he didn't tell me the actual price, charged me 120Y extra, which I didn't find out until the ticket arrived (most places might charge a booking fee of ~40Y). By then, he was nowhere to be found and no one else would help. They charge ridiculous amounts for other activities, so don't even bother going through them. EG 300Y for a riverboat ride (they'll say it's half a day, but it's two hours), and you can get it for 100-200 elsewhere. Likewise, going up moonhill is 9Y, but he charges 30Y. He also lies a lot. When it came time for me to leave, they owed me 75Y, and tried very hard not to give it to me, for no reason. I persisted and got it back. When I wanted help finding a place to get medicine, the lady at the front tried charging me to write down the Chinese characters. The beds are hard, and the shower was cold almost every day (halfway through, on my last day, it was warm). I see that this site says there's a free towel -- nope. There isn't always someone who speaks english around to help you. Also, it is very dirty. There are empty beer bottles everywhere. Next to the computer (there is one, and you will have to plug in about five things and turn it on to use it to access internet), there was a cup with an inch of mold at the top of whatever liquid was inside. If I was staying in Yangshuo longer I would have changed hostels. Yes, the location is great, but don't stay here. — Sally , United States (2008-08-21) Dirty, worst hostel in china The good point -- great location -- located at the opening of West Street, friendly front desk staff. The bad point -- dirty rooms, because of their lazy cleaning staff, cockroaches on the bathroom and even on your bed, the cleaning staff will go in the room, clean the bathroom, they will mop the floor maybe halfway if they feel like cleaning it, they dont even sweep the floor. Rooms have very old bed sheets, some of them have holes on it, bed cushion is really old too, what you normally will throw out, they still use it there. There are other hostels in yangshou for the same price, or you can book a room of your own for a price of a dorm bed in some small inn there. Good Luck to those who want to stay there. — camryn tang , Taiwan (2008-04-09)
