Maybe this place used to be good in the past but our experience was horrible. The korean sisters in charge were very rude, didn't want to cook any food despite having a menu, and ruined many clothes of a friend in the group by washing them with a detergent that is only used for specific clothes. You can hear people from any corner of the hostel so forget about having a decent sleep. Avoid at all costs.

Had a great experience over here!
The owner is super friendly, speaks great English and is very knowledgeable about hiking and activities around the area.
I ordered a 1-day hike from the hostel which was great, and left my bag here while hiking in Yubeng.
The food is delicious, and the atmosphere is incredible.
Cannot recommend this place enough, and I will definitely come again.
