    No place to store clothes.

    Nice comfortable hotel. Very hospitable and helpful administration. They speak English! They helped us a lot to book tickets to the sightseeings and to find right buses and not to be lost. Also to call the taxi to railway station. The breakfast was delicious - fried eggs and fruit, watermelon. We tasted local tea. Thank you very much! Room was clean and comfortable. Conditioner. Very big comfortable bed, big window. Everything for life and comfort. Location is also good - near bus station, railway and cable way to Tianmen Mountain.

    Bag storage is out in the open in the lobby - while mainland China is the safest I've felt in my travels across Asia, worth noting for the security concious traveller. However because your passport is on your person every day as an e-ticket in the national park, I wasn't particularly concerned.

    Edinburgh made it a breeze to plan and book my excursions in Zhangjiajie. Specifically, it was incredibly helpful to have the staff assist with Chinese booking websites - saving me some hundreds of dollars I would've otherwise spent on guided tours. Great street food just around the corner and was an ideal location for getting to the Tianmen Cableway and Central Bus Station. Really enjoyed exploring the surrounding area at night, backalleys dripping with neon, reminding me of an era of Hong Kong I've only seen in photos. Overall, Zhanjiajie greatly exceeded my expectations as a tourist destination and Edinburgh Hostel was a big part of that. Highly recommend for solo travellers!

    Truly exceptional! From the moment we booked, the communication with the host was seamless and friendly. The homestay itself was a dream come true, with every detail thoughtfully considered. The rooms were spacious, beautifully furnished, and filled with natural light. The breakfast selection was impressive, and the host even offered to cook us dinner one night, which was an absolute treat. The location was convenient to everything we wanted to see and do. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly, highly recommended

They also helped us to book the park tickets and told us how to take the bus and how to travel the park route more easily. If you go to Zhangjiajie to play recommend this hotel.

    The hotel itself is very simple and already a bit old. Especially that bathroom could use a renovation. Nevertheless, we felt comfortable, because the kindness, patience and helpfulness of the owner deserves full marks. In our opinion, these qualities cannot be replaced by anything. You can turn a blind eye in the bathroom. The hotel is also within walking distance to the South Railway Station, bus station and the valley station of the tianman cable car. We are happy to recommend it to others.

    It was very close to the bus stations to and the Tianmen mountain, easily could walk or get the quick bus to Zhangjiajie forest where the Avatar mountains were. The host was amazing, very welcoming, knew all the ways to travel to all the sites, even helped book tickets in advance for me (which save lots of time because my Chinese wasn't as good to surf the websites) and even helped me with my problems during the stay.

    This is not a critique persay, but this is a hostel, not a five star hotel. Its listing is accurate to the size of the rooms and amenities. For the price, the rooms are great, but they are very compact. This place is ideal for a cozy, friendly stay, not a 5-star or chain hotel.

    PeiPei, the hotel manager, was incredible. Her english is great, and she was totally willing to help me and my friend navigate booking tickets to the national park, and explain the complicated process of taking buses to and from the parks. She also was very knowledgeable about the various pricing options for activities in the park, and helped us save some money where we could. For two Americans with VERY limited Chinese language skills, she was a lifesaver! And she makes a great cappuchino.

    The American breakfast is not so impressive. Who loves spicy food should order the Chinese noodle meal if you want to have breakfast at the hostel.

    Pei Pei is such a nice girl. She can speak English and is really helpful. Pei Pei's brother is also friendly and helpful even though he can't speak English.
