Jacky's Guesthouse

Jacky's is the place for me as someone who has very limited understanding of Chinese. Moreover, many of the older villagers can't speak Chinese anyway. Jacky is a native of this place. I chose a very basic room which was sufficient for my needs. He was most helpful with information on photography, himself being a photographer and Hani culture. He arranged arrival and departure for me and helped with luggage. Please be aware that you will be in a very rural and once remote part of the country, so don't expect luxurious surroundings. If you are squirmish about mud, dirt and animal droppings, well, get used to it and enjoy one of the wonders of human effort and creation. If you are a photographer, do yourself a favour and also get a drone. Incomparable and endless views of rice terraces. And yes, Duoduo their dog can take you for a walk down to the terraces.

Jacky is great host, very interesting with a lot of information about the area. The food was great there and we slept very well. Thank again Jacky!

Great location right at one of the best terrace. Jacky and the ladies are really friendly and helpful! The food they prepared was so delicious :) The only problem was that the room was not very clean. I found a cigarette bud on the floor and the bed side table had some sauce stains on it that I had to clean myself. Also the bathroom was not very clean. Luckily the bed was ok. Stains in the walls too. Still, I would recommend.
