The environment here is beautiful, surrounded by all sorts of fresh flowers. The host was so welcoming, and I had a very relaxing stay. Before I left, I spent a long time exploring Shuhe Ancient Town. The small bridges and flowing water there had a unique charm. Listening to folk music and drinking coffee, I felt completely at peace. When I left, I even managed to grab a succulent from the host to take home! Next time I'm in Lijiang, I'll definitely come back here.

Thank you so much, Sister Bing. We couldn't book a room for another day, but Sister Bing was so nice to accommodate me and my friend. My friend and I went to bed late, so I hope we didn't disturb Sister Bing during our stay. Every time we came back, the owner would greet us and say ”I'm back”, which was like going home. I highly recommend it to friends in Lugu Lake, you won't be disappointed! There is also a very cute cat named Big Bear.

This hostel is really amazing. I spent 3 nights there and honestly its amazing quality compared to its price. The location is great, 10min away to the old town and 5min away from the Black Dragon Pool. There's restaurants and convenience shops nearby in case you need anything which is very helpful. The beds are a bit hard but I slept quite well, the blankets are super thick so you won't get cold here, the bathroom and accomodations are m clean and functionning. Honestly its amazing value for money. The owner is very nice and let me use for free the washing machine and even gave me powder for it. I left one day to make a two days hike and he let me leave my big bag at the hostel. Also I forgot a bag with my passport in a bus and he helped me finding the contact of the bus company and even took me on his motorbike to take it back ! Amazing place and experience, would really recommend if you travel on a budget. 5 stars well deserved. Thanks again !!!

Dengba Snow Mountain International Youth Inn

The 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.

Room Clean bed space with curtain for privacy. In the space you get plug sockets, lights and shelves. Room door has a lock. I don't think I saw an air con but it wasn't too hot so not an issue during my stay (i'm sure if you asked they might be able to help). This is not a criticism but a suggestion to make it even better - hooks at the end of the bed to hang stuff would be very useful. Pretty thin mattress as seems common in Chinese hostels, but probably one of the comfier sleeps I've had. forgot to take pictures of the room but it is just standard kind of capsule hostel type set up Bathroom Nice and clean. A few bathrooms each with a shower, squat toilet, sink and hair dryer. As per the online description, there are no toiletries. Around the corner it also appears you may be able to do your washing here but not too sure. Location Very close to the ancient town but also close to the residential area if you want to see that side as well. Make sure you're on the right side of the fence when you walk down haha. Around 40mins from train station by bus, not too bad (its easiest if you get the tourist bus) Host Seems great for Chinese visitors, maybe a little awkward for international visitors due to language barrier, but you get what you make of the situation. Seems to be a BBQ in the evening. They were kind and let me leave my luggage before I checked in and after I checked out (awkward train times)

The 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!

I 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 😔

Posted on Jun 26, 2025|Bed in Four-person Room (Females only) (Room rate calculated per bed)
CNGuest User
The 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.

Uncles 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
