Reviewed Aug 11, 2026We hebben de accomodatie als zeer prettig ervaren. We zijn nog nooit zo goed geholpen door de gastheer als op deze plek. Hij hielp ons bij alle vragen die we hadden, het maken van een planning, het boeken van activiteiten. Kortom, een fijn verblijf.
We hadden een bed met een heel hard matras. We hebben aangegeven dat we hierdoor niet fijn konden slapen. De gastheer heeft meteen actie ondernomen en ons een extra matras gegeven. Verder vonden we de kamer best wel stoffig. Voor het aantal dagen dat wij er verbleven, vonden we dit niet heel vervelend.
Our kind host made us feel welcome and comfortable. A friendly place in a quiet alley, with plenty of restaurants and convenience stores nearby. Cross the river and find even more restaurants and, if desired, a place with a Western-style breakfast. A DiDi ride tot the East gate of the Zhangjiajie Forest National Park takes only 10 minutes and costs a few yuan. A DiDi ride to the South gate is, as we found out, also possible. The English speaking host can arrange tickets for the park for you (we bought them elsewhere, for no particular reason). The rooms are good and downright cheap. The beds are hard, but we found that a minor inconvenience given the all in all atmosphere, value and friendliness of the place. Recommended.

Rain (the host) is a lovely person who gave us a great welcome and was very helpful. He booked all of the national park attractions for us and explained in detail how to explore them. He also kindly offered us tea at various points and took time to get to know us. The hostel is homely and comfortable, and it is a great budget option for any backpackers exploring China!
If I were to criticise anything I would say the location is a little far out of Wulingyuan, however it is not an issue due to the low prices of the DiDi driver app.

What made our experience even more special was Rain: a superb host who helped us perfectly with booking all the tickets for the parks, saving us a lot of time and hassle. On top of that, he served a delicious breakfast every morning, which was the perfect start to our days. Thanks to Rain, everything went smoothly and stress-free. Highly recommended!

Als je op zoek bent naar een persoonlijke aanpak, ben je hier aan het juiste adres!
Het Chinese ontbijt was overheerlijk, zelfs beter dan het Westerse ontbijt.
De kamers zijn, naar Westerse normen, vrij sober. Er lag hier en daar nog wat stof of vuil, en de badkamer is wel aan wat vernieuwing toe.
Wij verbleven hier 5 nachten en konden ons hier gemakkelijk overzetten. Op zich was dit geen groot probleem, maar toch wel belangrijk om even te benoemen.

Very friendly and helpful manager Rain ,I was given the directions and the full information support during the stay.Also I'd been provided with tickets for the entrance into the park just on arrival.The location of the property is not in the center but all is reachable within 7-10 minutes walking
Very cold inside.The heating air-conditioner and electric blanket on the bed are not enough for the winter season.And the cleaning should be better,there were some dusty spots in the corners of the room and the ventilation equipment in the bathroom

Rain regelt alles voor, de toegansgspassen voor de parken, verteld je de beste routes, regelt de bus en verteld je waar je het lekkerste kan eten.
Niks is te veel voor hem.
Het guesthouse is zo sfeervol en voelt als een warme plek waar je ook echt met de locals contact kunt leggen.
Zelfs een avond van hem callifrafie mogen leren.
Bij aankomst kreeg ik een upgrade naar een kamer met een kingsize bed zonder extra kosten. De kamers waren netjes en schoon en de douche was top.
Ik ga deze plek missen maar kom zeker terug als ik weer naar China ga.
Het ligt in een wat rustigere plek wat fijn is voor slapen maar binnen 15 minuten lopen sta je midden in het bruisende centrum. 35 minuten lopen van de oostelijke poort van het Zhangjiajie National Forest Park

Reviewed Aug 29, 2025Definitely one of the best places to stay if you are a foreign tourist. There are some amazing parks in the area, but it is very difficult to find your way around them due to the language barrier. Rain, the owner of the place, speaks English and explains each park, explains the procedures and routes, and of course also makes bookings. (In the parks, bookings are based on entry times, so it is important to pay attention to what entry time you make a reservation). Thanks to Rain's preliminary explanation, it is much easier to get around and you don't waste unnecessary time. And that's in addition to the warm welcome and the kind and personal treatment.
