No WiFi so had to use roaming.

Located in such a beautiful setting, rooms were spacious and clean for the price point. Lots of thoughtful details like home cooked breakfast being included and beautiful travel books about Hangzhou in multiple languages to suit a variety of travelers. Service was wonderful and very personal. The owners stayed up until 2 AM the day I checked in to respond to my WeChats after I had a long flight delay and ran into tons of holiday traffic. Although they have a good command of English, I was also really happy that they were willing to let me practice my Chinese and were very kind and understanding about my mistakes. Last, they have a lot of cute cats!

Nothing, it is well worth the money.

The place is located in a nice location, it is close to the temples to visit (few minutes walk). The room was nicely decorated and felt very cozy. More general the place is decorated with various types of arts pieces, which attracts the curiosity. A few minutes walk from the bus station to take a bus back to West Lake or downtown Hangzhou.

Other travellers said it was difficult to find, but we just looked at the area’s overview map and found it straight away. You have to go up some steps at the back.

There are three lovely cats 😻 There is an amazing view, a brilliant vegan restaurant five doors downhill, lots of room to sit/read. The countryside setting in tea fields is beautiful. There is the Lingyin Temple tourist area next door with lots of facilities and good transport links. Our favourite place to stay on our journey is - we’ll be back!

We initially thought about staying only two nights in this accommodation, but after arriving at this beautiful place we decided to extend our stay. The accommodation is a great hide away from the busy Hangzhou and walking distance from the Lingyin Scenic Area. You will find a few restaurants in the neighborhood, but we highly recommend the vegetarian restaurant "Qing Chun Perma" - delicious food, high quality ingredients and still very affordable. The host is extremely friendly, helpful and can communicate in English. A cherry on the cake was the outstanding dinner that the host offered to us. For all the Italians out there, be aware that the breakfast is very traditional and therefore not sweet;)

A little hard to find, u have to go up a staircase and the numbering isn't very clear

Cute cats and staff very friendly. Breakfast was simple. They upgraded us to a nicer room.

Stayed in March 2024

One of our room lighting was a little dim, but minor for me.

Rooms was clean and comfortable, with a zen and local vibe. Walking distance to the famous ling ying temple and tourism areas which was a plus. There were some restaurants and convenience store nearby as well. The town was really beautiful early in the morning and at night when lights were lit. The breakfast was exceptional, healthy, tasty and filling which gives us more energy to tour around HangZhou. Owner of the place was very helpful too which gave us local tips and also assistance in buying high speed rail tickets when we were leaving from HangZhou to SuZhou. They also prepared breakfast for us earlier in the morning, outside of breakfast hours so we could catch our train in the morning.

Was a bit difficult to find it initially, you might need to ask the locals.

The host were adorable ( and I am not just talking about the two cats). The breakfast was simple but fulfilling and you can ask more for those with hungry belly. The room was clean and comfortable. It represents the amazing old Chinese traditional house. I loved the colors, warm tone and very relaxing. The hotel had some hidden zen spots ( an outside garden and an internal court with many plants), great for pic or morning relaxation

The room smells a little bit humid, but I know it's the local weather that makes the indoors smell like this. Opening all windows after getting in will be helpful.

The staff are super friendly and always there to help. It's located in a quiet village near Lingyin Temple, within walking distance to get there. We enjoyed breakfast with local and fresh food.

This guesthouse is the best!! My room was super cute, and the house was filled with antique-looking furniture. The hosts were very nice, they were worried when I didn't arrive at my specified arrival time and gave directions to my taxi driver.

Location, climbing stairs to reach the place

Location wise is not very good as it’s located further in where there’s not many food or shops around. It would b better to take didi (cab) when going out / going back. However, besides that, staffs are super friendly! Breakfast was delicious too! (the most typical traditional Chinese breakfast ive had in China). Staffs even help us carry our luggage down & waited for the didi to arrive ! The stay were cozy & theres cats around too!

The smell of the bathroom.. it was pretty bad. it’s tricky to find as it’s slightly behind the property and a few steps up from the road.

Great staff extremely helpful. Loved the breakfast

It is a very welcoming place with a garden. The staff are very helpful; breakfast is amazing. We are a family of four. We enjoyed the two rooms on 2nd floor with a connecting lounge. It was perfect for us.

Room was a little small and the 'balcony' didn't quite look like in the photos.

Breakfast was good and overall a very chill place to stay. Cat is very cute and playful. Hosts made a local dinner for us on our last night which was very nice.

Just to note (not the guesthouse's problem though) that to get to the guesthouse, you will need to climb a flight of stairs. The guesthouse is also easily missed as it is not along the row of other houses on the road.

The location of the guesthouse is in a quiet area (staying amongst locals as well as some other guesthouses). There are some small marts and eateries nearby too. I only had breakfast once but it was filling and good - it included porridge with small side dishes of vegetables, tofu, boiled egg, steamed bun etc. The staff was also friendly and helpful. There were also 2 very lovely cats :) My room was really nice and had everything I needed (toiletries etc). I wish I had more time to spend chilling in the guesthouse/in my room. Located close to all the West Lake sights, so recommended for those who are intending to spend more time in this area.

There was a very cold spell when we stayed. Additional room heating would be helpful.

A very cosy place with helpful and friendly staff. Excellent location next to the Lingyin Temple park.

I booked the Superior Twin Room with photos posted bamboo and mountain background view. But when we arrived there, I was shocked as it turned out to be a wall/ air well. There are flight of stairs to reach the homestay. If you have many heavy luggages, you might want to reconsider.

Receptionist was a young guy that attended to us during our midnight check-in, very polite and patient. The breakfast was absolutely amazing, prepared fresh everyday by one local aunty.

Great breakfast! So delicious and so much food. The hotel is located in a very peaceful and tranquil area of Hangzhou. Highly recommend. Wonderful place.

the location is a bit tricky. It’s really close to west lake and lingyin tample also bus stop bus number 7 but a little bit difficult to find. As it’s in the residential area. Well You can always prepare by installing alipay or didi app if you need taxi.

The room is beautiful. Comfortable and clean. I love the ambiance of the guest house. It has Chinese family vibes. The service was excellent. Close to west lake and lingyin temple. Close to bus stop bus number 7 if you want to stroll along the west lake.

The shower leaked into the bathroom but it wasn't a great problem and may be repaired soon. There were larger rooms with better views but perhaps they cost more.

Xiaolei was always available to answer our questions, recommend restaurants, help with Chinese apps etc. The guest house was generous with extras, e.g. fruit, and gave us a gift of tea as we left. The breakfast was a good variety of different Chinese foods - a rice porridge, steamed buns, fruit, pickled veg, eggs, sweet potato, tea/coffee etc. in a nice balcony location. The decor of the guest house was very good. The West Lake was very accessible by bus, using Alipay.
