First late me say that this place looks way better in the pictures than on reality, accept of the rooms whitch are big, modern and pretty. Even so, they are a bit dirty. We recieved a room with a toilet that was stink from urin like a public urinary, and I had to clean it myself so it will stop.||As for the laundry- we hung our laundry outside the room on the balcony, and people were keep moving it because it 'botherd their view'.

Location is right outside the old city which is very convenient, and they can also help arrange tours to Jade Dragon Mountain and to Tiger...
