CCaine YuEnjoyed stay here. premium location, next to 工农桥, clean room with river view. Hotel provides electric bike which can take you almost anywhere around the area, must ride along the 遇龙河!I did enjoy both run and ride along the river, even though the walking path not friendly to runners. about 4.5km to town center with many restaurants.
Great service, very nice people can help you with anything, any questions. Nice afternoon tea. Best hotel for this Guilin 桂林 trip
TTony from SAA family-run newly-opened gem with many amenities. Very clean and located among natural beauty, away from the tourist trap areas but still near enough for a quick ride on the electric scooters rented on the property. I was here in late April so it was quite hot already, and in hindsight I should have rented a room with a massage chair instead of a hot tub 😋 . A room on the higher floors would also have been more practical for the view but the first floor was fine. Outfitted with a western smart toilet, electric curtains, mood lighting, a projector and comfortable beds it was a very comfortable stay. The room was also very spacious.
The hosts are very friendly and accommodating and I thank them for their hospitality. 👌
Tips
1. There is an on-site restaurant serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Indoor and outdoor seating. Very tasty local cuisine.
2. The top floor hosts the clothes washers and gym but also has the best views. My pics are taken early morning
3. There is a small road in front of the property but it's quiet enough that it didn't bother me. Even with the floor to ceiling windows, the sound-proofing dampens the outside sound.
4. I didn't encounter any mosquitos during my stay in April
5. There is an elevator.
6. Remember to bring your action camera and attachments to record your scooter rides and other rides such as the bamboo rafts. The phone-mounts on the scooters are suitable only for navigating and not for recording videos on your phone.
7. If you'll be using the scooters, budget a morning or afternoon for one destination within a 10km radius. This will keep your trip relaxed. If you're comfortable riding in the evening, then you'll have more time.
8. At least a 3 day stay is recommended for a relaxed experience. I saw many tired tourists, so remember to keep water with you. Also toilet paper for your excursions since the public toilets in the tourist areas aren't likely to have and even have vending machines selling it, but were out of stock when I needed it.
9. The weather was fine and only a light drizzle on the morning of my arrival for my 3 day stay in late April. Remember your hat or umbrella for the sun.
10. Xingping ancient city is a crowded tourist trap but ok for a few photo opportunities or curio purchases. There is an area across the river with better photo opportunities.
11. Hang your washing outside to dry but not overnight because it might not be dry. Not sure if it was due to the humidity or dew.
ゲゲストChuxin Homestay felt more like staying with thoughtful hosts than at a typical Yangshuo lodging. The room was quiet, spacious, and well kept, and the bed was comfortable enough to rest well after long days out. Getting around was easy with scooter rentals close by and simple food options nearby. What really made the stay smooth was the owner’s guidance — she helped map out our days realistically, steered us toward fairly priced experiences, and discouraged activities that weren’t worth the money. We arrived late on our first night and were still warmly welcomed, which immediately set the tone for the stay. Communication was always clear and timely, and the place felt safe and well managed. A small but memorable detail was Fa Cai, the calm and friendly house dog. If you prefer an honest stay without tourist traps, this homestay is a solid choice.
