Very Good

I had great time staying here for the first night and then I booked another two nights. It is just right in the old town near North gate and it it quite easy to find on the map. If you wanna eat, it is better just to walk out of old town and there are so many restaurants around. People in the hostel are very friendly and helpful as I ask them about hiking and booking tours. I recommend this place for everyone who comes to visit Shangri-la

The cleanliness of the hostel is horrible the toilets look awful and they smoke in building although it looks open the building isn't open and the smoke enters the room and get stuck to mattress if you don't like smoking like it is suggested that you will not stay there
Response from Property: I'm sorry for not letting you have a good experience. Smoking is not allowed in the building, but some customers did not strictly abide by the requirements, so it affected your experience. Sorry again, we will pay more attention to it. In addition, the store is mainly a backpacker station, hikers home, cost-effective, welcome to visit.

Dirty. Nobody has cleaned in years. The bathroom is totally unacceptable. The public toilets of the city are in much better conditions than this bathroom, besides there is no women/men different toilet. The shower is a disaster. The common area is dirty, food leftovers and empty bottles. The bed was smelly. I had to leave. Only good thing is the location and the price, but the hygiene conditions are very poor.
Response from Property: The bathroom is cleaned every day. During the peak tourist season, there are too many people and a lot of luggage, so the room looks messy. Not to mention that you live in a room for 8 people. The floor is dirty even when it rains. I have already answered countless times about the bathroom. Due to the structure of the house, it can only be so small. Sorry for causing you discomfort. I want to ask you how you put the quilt cover on the mattress. The quilt cover is placed on the quilt and the sheets are spread on the mattress.

Really lovely stay, it's about what you expect from a youth hostel. Safe and warm with bed heaters which is nice in Shangrila!

I like staying in hostels and have a pretty large tolerance for semi-clean places, however, this hostel seemed like it hadn't been cleaned since it opened. The potential charm was lost due to the lack of concern of tidiness. Also the people there at the time, were night owls and after a day of traveling I'm in bed early so it just wasn't a good fit for me.
Response from Property: Sorry, I'm really sorry for not letting you have a good rest! Youth hostels are a place where young people gather. Everyone has different schedules. There are many people who go to bed at 1 or 2 in the morning. It is recommended that older people who like quiet do not need to stay in youth hostels. Mixed rooms will affect you. Regarding hygiene, when you checked in, there were already two foreign friends staying in the room. It had rained for the past two days, and they were both wet when they came back from the rain. It was inevitable that there would be muddy water on the floor. The bed cost 20 yuan. I can't clean as quickly as a hotel. I hope you understand. I'm sorry I didn't let you have a comfortable stay here. Youth hostels are a place where young people gather. Everyone's work and rest time is different. Many people go to bed at 1 or 2 a.m. If you enjoy quiet and comfortable environment, I suggest you choose standardized hotel to live in instead of youth hostels. In terms of hygiene, when you checked in, there were already two foreign friends in the room. It rained

This place has a lot of potential but would be much better if it was cleaner. Then again, it is less than 20 kuai a night, so it’s kind of hard to complain. Definitely a good option if you’re on a budget.
Response from Property: Thank you for your suggest , we will try to do better !

When I go out alone, I prefer to stay in a youth hostel. The atmosphere is particularly good and the owner often organizes hiking. It really deserves to be a home for hikers! Highly recommend this place to friends who like hiking! There is also a cute little kitten in the store, you can pet it as you like! It never barks because it is very old hahaha~ The location of the youth hostel is also very good, with convenient transportation, right at the entrance of the ancient city. The room is very clean and the quilt covers are changed after every guest.

The location is very convenient, very close to taxis and various restaurants, and also very close to the train station. The boss is very nice and easy to talk to. He will help if you need anything. There is an electric blanket in the room, which heats up very quickly. You won’t feel cold when you sleep at night. cat cat

If the weather is cold, there is an electric blanket to solve the problem. The bed sheets and quilt covers are changed once per person, which is clean and hygienic. Public bathrooms are cleaned in time. The room is clean and the common area is tidy. It is a comfortable and safe place to stay. This is a youth hostel that meets basic accommodation conditions. If you have any problems, you can communicate one by one and solve them as much as possible. This is not a star hotel and cannot provide five-star services. The target groups of youth hostels and hotels are different. Yuenniao receives mostly travelers who do not have high requirements for accommodation and can meet their basic accommodation needs. Moon Bird provides more intangible and non-material value. There is a group of interesting people who exchange a lot of information about free travel and hiking. Thanks to Brother Ming for giving everyone a utopia and allowing a group of special souls to have a safe place. This is already my second time staying here, and I will stay here again in the future. The moon bird feels safe, comfortable, warm and nostalgic.

I stayed for one night, so I had to bring my own shower gel and shampoo. The B&B didn't provide them, but the toilet was very dirty. I hope the B&B owner would pay attention. Everything else was fine, and the electric blanket was warm enough to keep me awake until dawn.

The boss is a veteran of hiking for 20 years. Anyone who loves hiking can make an appointment with him at the North Gate of Dukezong in Shangri-La to find a suitable hiking route for you. Hiking options near Shangri-La include Yubeng, Anjiluo, Abujitso, and Bottomless. Lake, Niru, Baishui Terrace, Daocheng, etc. Accommodation is also quite affordable among youth hostels. You can check it out and see the rich hiking culture lingering there.
