The hotel is right by the Li River. To get there from the West Street entrance, turn left and walk about 800 meters along Pantao Road. It offers great value for money. I was a bit unsure when booking, but after checking in, I found it totally worth it. The room layout is sensible, the size is just right, and the amenities are complete. It was clean, hygienic, free of any odors, and had great soundproofing. The breakfast was also quite substantial. It's an ideal choice for couples and families with kids. The hotel features a children's playground and also offers e-bike rentals.
The hotel is very close to the Li River bamboo raft pier—just turn right out of the hotel and walk about 150 meters. Tickets are 110 RMB per person, with four people per raft. This is a must-do activity in Yangshuo. The raft goes downriver and back up, taking about an hour. With the crystal-clear Li River water and the picturesque Guilin mountains, you truly feel like you are floating inside a painting. There is a photo stop along the way which is great for taking pictures (you can take your own, or pay 20 RMB to get a photo taken by a professional photographer, entirely optional).
My entire trip to Yangshuo was pleasant and smooth. I didn't encounter a single instance of forced buying or misrepresentation. It is truly a place that leaves you reluctant to leave.
