    Everything was clean and neat. It was located in a quite part of the city. They also had food and things to drink.

    My room was clean and neat. The bed was very comfortable. My host was attentive to my needs and available to answer any questions. The environment was quiet, and the neighborhood is in the city, but has a suburban feel.

    Yin is friendly and helpful. The shared bathroom was very clean and new, as were the rooms. It would be best to be traveling by car. Site did not seem to be near public transit.
