Handy location - only 15min slow walk form the centre and the road in is busy and vibrant. Pickup from the train station is handy.

Staff were friendly. Lack of menus and service information written in English was a bit of a problem. Place was spotless.

The staff was very helpful, but just be warned the website is wrong and airport pickup is not included and there is no breakfast. Also there is no hot water no matter which time of day you try. The internet access is one very old computer that is very slow. Overall I had a good time mainly because of the staff!

Its a nice hotel.. they do say that they have wireless though and they dont. Not having hot water either should be mentioned on the website.. i had to wait 2 days till we went to Yangshou because the water was ICE. Staff don't speak much english but try pretty hard. They can help you with booking tix,etc. Near the train station big bonus and the walk to the shops isn't far.

We decided to take a chance on the riverside hostel as there didn\'t seem much choice in Guilin. It turned out to be quite nice, with large clean rooms with air con. The reception staff spoke little english but we could always phone a really nice guy called \'Jerry\' from reception if we needed help. He seemed to run the place and was always there when we needed him. He WILL try to sell you tours however they turned out to be really good value and fitted in perfectly with what we wanted to do. The hostel itself is not much much fun as theres no bar or atmosphere to speak of as its more of a budget hotel however its centrally located next to everything you could need.
