Great hostel, really enjoyed staying here, there was lots of space. Would recommend for both couples and solo travelers. There is an area for social vibes, but also an area for quiet time or to do some yoga etc. The staff were very helpful and accommodating, and there were lots of toilets and showers for all the guests. The only thing was breakfast was at 8:30am which was quite late if we wanted to start our day. But it was free, and unlimited so overall still great. Would recommend 😊

The hostel is located directly in the centre of Dulan and is close to everything. The owner is super friendly and immediately made me feel welcome. The hostel is very clean, has a great common area and the atmosphere is good. I was able to securely store my bike and there were also a lot of people working remotely. While there is no dedicated co-working space, the property is still recommendable to digital nomads.
