We planned on staying in Yangshuo for 3-4 days, but after discovering Monkey Janes Guesthouse, we ended up staying for over a week! Atmosphere is really amazing and the staff is very friendly and helpful. We arranged all of our tours through the guesthouse and also got our Vietnam visas in a couple of days. The rooms were ordinary, clean... More

Aside from Monkey Jane herself, a legend who will join you in the bar, the staff are so helpful and even have great banter. The hostel has a great rooftop bar, stunning views, of course it can be lively as it sports a beer pong table. The 6-bed was fairly small but the beds were nice and wide, and tall... More

Rooms could use some upgrading but other than that our stay was great. The staff is extremely friendly and very helpfull. The food is great and very fair priced. Beer pong at the roof terrace is one big party.

Stayed here for a couple of nights as we had heard it was the best place to stay, maybe for some folk but I found it dirty and over priced. The room we had was really damp and smelly. Had washing done here which came back in a worse state than before it was washed! The one good thing about... More

As read elsewhere, plenty of places on West Road with great bars, nice enough facilities etc to more than rival MJ's. Don't get swept up in any hype! Went to pay for 2 beers with a 20, the bar waitress says I gave her a 10. The girl standing next to me at the bar says the same thing happened... More

If you want to meet new people and have great parties, this is the place in Yangshou! Additionally you can do great tours with Jane (the owner) and other people from the hostel. Every day she shows travellers the sorroundings of her home town and gives very good advice what to do. This way most people spend a long time... More

The location is great, and the staff is very helpful. The room was cozy and the bed was comfortable. The only comlaint is the noise. Very noise upstairs, in the famous roof top bar. If you are not into amercian disco music until late (which is my case), it can be a little annoying. But overall I am very satisfied... More

The place is good to meet people and have party on the rooftopbar. Jane and the whole staff are very helpful and competent. We first stayed in a doubleroom in the 3 floor of the second building. Unfortunatley we had cockroaches. When I told that at the reception we were offered another room that was much nicer. The rooms are... More

I spent 4 nights at Monkey Jane's hostel and it was the best time during my 2 months China trip! The hostel is good value for money and very clean. It's a great place if you travel alone as you meet a lot of other packpackers and Monkey Jane is a great host! I especially enjoyed the lovely evenings on... More
