Deqin rain fall walker mountain shelter

This is, by far, one of the cleanest, well kept places in Upper Yubeng village. The room I stayed in was very spacious, immaculately clean, and had a lovely view of the mountains to the side picture window. At night I slept with the window open to feel the cool mountain breeze, and it was lovely to be awakened by the sound of mules baying rather than the honking of cars in the big city! It is clear that the owners of this inn, two young brothers, have a vision for this place that is quite different than the other inns around. From the quality of the towels and the bedding, to the Zen open concept communal area downstairs, there is more of a Western feel to this hotel than others I have stayed in in the area. While the upper floors contain the private rooms, the bottom floor is more like a hostel with rooms that contain 4 to 5 beds. There is a pool table right outside those rooms so you can entertain yourselves in the evening after hiking. Another great thing about the end is the two brand new big load washing machines where, for only 10 RMB, they provide soap and you can wash and hang your sweaty clothes after a day on the mountain. The shared sinks, toilets, and showers, for the hostelers are equally as immaculate as the private rooms upstairs. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a hostel as clean as this one! The kitchen also serves up good food and there’s plenty of cold beer and other drinks in the fridge in the reception. One thing I forgot to mention, is that on the upper floors there are small areas where you can sit in a swing chair or at a table and read a book or drink tea. Also, though I didn’t ask for it myself, I saw other guests at the end of the day soaking their feet in traditional wooden barrels provided by the hotel. Both of the brothers were lovely and highly accommodating. I would return to this hotel in a heartbeat and highly recommend it to others traveling in the Yubeng area!

In Upper Yubeng Village, this hostel offers clean rooms, a friendly and social atmosphere, and helpful advice from the staff! The room itself is simple but quite comfortable. The public areas can be noisy during business hours, but they’re usually quiet after 11pm. There were loud children staying while I was there, but I assume it’s not always that way. The small kitchen has a decent Chinese menu. Not great for solo travelers as the menu is more so for sharing with a group. Regardless, you can order a dish with rice. Prices are reasonable considering how isolated you are from the supply. I’d definitely stay here again.

算是離冰湖尼色起點最近的一家住處，對面出門就是酥油茶，吃早餐非常方便。斜對面小超市賣的梨超級甜。 或許是12月淡季的緣故，住的人很少也很安靜，住了兩晚有一晚是我一個人獨享六人間。房間裏的取暖器很暖和，床比想象的寬敞許多，電熱毯很給力，同時也配有毛毯。 洗漱杯和一次性牙刷都有，也配有毛巾，自己帶了，所以沒用。 衞生間和淋浴間是分開的，很乾凈，熱水很熱。洗衣服也有晾曬區。公區有開水箱隨時可以喝到熱水，晚上可以烤火。 看到床單被罩是客人離店就立馬換掉的，房間每天都有打掃，整體感覺很不錯。 後院還有衹很搞笑的狗。
