Extremely satisfied with this guesthouse! I initially chose this location because the electric scooter parking at Yu Lin Ba (Fish Scale Dam) costs money, so I figured I'd stay here, see the dam, and then rent a scooter. That turned out to be a great decision – the location is incredibly advantageous, and currently, this guesthouse offers the best value and is the prettiest in the area.
The hotel rooms come with washing machines, there's a 'Sky Mirror' on the rooftop, and a kids' pool downstairs. What really stands out is how attentive they are to every detail. Every corner is spotless. When I went to the Sky Mirror at noon, an auntie even specially cleaned the glass. The swimming rings by the pool were all nice and new, not tattered at all. The room also had a Tmall Genie, and the cleaning was impeccable. I arrived early, and they opened one room for me, and I practically watched them prepare the adjacent one. When we checked in, the staff immediately took photos of our license plate to link it to the parking system. The service was incredibly thoughtful, and we even received brown sugar as a parting gift when we checked out. A truly delightful stay!

I booked this guesthouse last minute and it exceeded my expectations. It's a quiet little place tucked away in a bustling area. The location is right at the entrance of Shuolong Street. Across the river is Vietnam, and the border crossing is to the left. They have their own parking area, which is very convenient. Our triple room was on the fifth floor. There's an elevator, which is great for the elderly. The views are expansive. The room has wooden tables and chairs, which adds a nice touch. The food was also delicious. It's a charming little spot with a lot of character.

QiuyiweiI initially thought this was a countryside guesthouse, but to my surprise, it's a newly built building with an elevator! Carrying luggage was no problem at all, which was a wonderful surprise. The owner even upgraded us to a tatami room, which had a lovely traditional charm. The hotel is located right on the main road, making it very easy to find. The hotel's design shows thoughtful attention to detail, with a small garden and a fishpond out front, and mountain views from the back, making it perfect for a relaxing stay. While the breakfast selection wasn't huge, there were still several options to choose from, and with plenty of restaurants nearby, dining wasn't an issue. When we left, I forgot some clothes in the room, and the owner safely kept them and promptly notified me to retrieve them. I'm very grateful for that!

Yangguang447We stayed here one night early during the National Day holiday so we could get to Detian Waterfall early the next day. The little courtyard is amazing, full of interesting elements, it has everything! There's a small outdoor pool, and they said the water is filtered from the mountain, which made our kid very happy. When we checked in that afternoon, they offered a lot of complimentary pastries and fruits, which was super nice, very generous, and definitely boosted our impression 🆙. We had dinner at the hotel, outdoors. The staff lit mosquito coils and incense for us, and the overall service attitude was really good. There's a laundry room with washers and dryers on the first floor. The lemongrass chicken wasn't great, but the seafood soup was excellent, and the portion was huge – as a mushroom lover, I highly recommend it. They even have outdoor karaoke in the evening, which gave it a real vacation vibe. What could be improved is the breakfast; it was a bit too simple, very basic. Overall, it exceeded our expectations and offered great value for money.

The stay was exceptional! We booked two rooms, both of them were with a great view and spotlessly clean. The rooms were on the last (6th) floor and we had also an access to a beautiful terrace where we could relax and enjoy a stunning view. Most of all we liked the host who was very helpful and kind, he helped us to book a transfer to Chongzuo (260 CIY) and met all our requirements. The breakfast was a typical Chinese one: delicious noodles, eggs, vegetables, steamed rolls. Just a kind of advice is to add more seating facilities, sometimes it's crowded during breakfast. Thank you very much!

MiaobaOur family of three visited Mingshi Garden during the summer vacation. As we prefer hotels over guesthouses, we chose Mingshi Villa. The hotel boasts an excellent location, right within the Mingshi Garden scenic area. The owner must have put a lot of effort into building this hotel back in the day. A significant portion of the unrenovated rooms (ethnic-themed rooms) are indeed quite old, but four buildings have been refurbished into more functionally designed deluxe garden view rooms (though at a higher price). Overall, the hotel offers good value for money. Even some of the better guesthouses in the area cost around a thousand yuan, but their facilities can't compare. Mingshi Villa's parking, shuttle service, restaurant ambiance, food quality, and service awareness are all things guesthouses can't provide. I hope the hotel continues its efforts to renovate all the older room types. Integrating the resources of Bieyuan and Yajun would definitely allow it to compete with high-end resorts like Changliu Mountain House.

Great Location, as Visitor Center, Mingshi Tourist (明仕旅游度假区游客中心) and most attractions meeting point was just right in front of the hotel. But need to walk 3mins to the main street to enter the compound (Big Carpark). There were street night markets and mostly selling food. Rental of bikes and bicycles is right on the street too. The reception and service crews were helpful and friendly. The room was big, neat and clean with great view (Room 306). Overall : Happy Stay

Hey Shanghainese folks, listen up! It's only a few hundred meters from the actual main entrance, but for lazy people, it might be a bit of a trek. You can drive there, and parking is 30 RMB. The guesthouse itself is really great – clean and relatively quiet! It's the tallest and largest guesthouse around, standing out from the ones on either side, so the views are unobstructed. During the National Day holiday, things were busy, but the landlady kept her cool and was super responsive to everything, which I really appreciated. Honestly, after looking around this trip, the service here was better than other so-called high-end guesthouses. The complimentary breakfast was a nice touch. There's parking right outside. I didn't have the landlady buy the 80 RMB tickets for me because she couldn't get them until 8:30 AM, and the scenic area opens at 7:30 AM. I bought my 110 RMB ticket online directly and was the first one through the gates on National Day. By 9 AM, when I was done and leaving, the peak crowds were just arriving. Then I went back to the guesthouse, took a shower, had some noodles, and relaxed watching a Vietnamese drama – pretty sweet!

Maitland GroomStay here! You can stay at the park gate. Drive up to it at night. Sleep here. He’ll go get your tickets in the morning for you and then you can be in the park at 8:30. You’ll arrive right as the people who have to bus in arrive but if you’re not in a group you can get ahead of everyone and enjoy the park and be on your way around noon

The room facilities, though a bit dated, were very well-maintained and clean, showing the hotel's dedication. The hotel is located near the Guichun River within the scenic area, offering views of the Vietnamese people across the river, though the barbed wire fence is a bit of a letdown. However, the hotel's garden restaurant is an absolute disaster—the food is unappetizing and truly awful. I'd recommend eating before you check in or returning to the hotel to rest after you've had a meal elsewhere.
