The Climber’s Inn is a great hostel with a great host! I came with no real plans to yangshuo and Lily proactively asked me about my plans and had some great suggestions. I also spontaneously booked a climbing session, which was exhausting but great as well. Even though it was off season, I met some other guests which is not always the case in the touristic spots in China.
The hostel is compared to the hundreds of other options for sure not the prettiest or with best price/benefit ratio, but beds are comfy, the balcony has a great view so it’s definitely reasonably priced. If I come to yangshuo with climbing plans again, I’d totally stay again!
