The Maple leaf in is just superb for a budget stay. Hosts, Wil and Anna, and their happy staff are very cheerful and accommodating to all who stay there. They put their heart and soul into their establishment and it shows... From the excellent quality of their coffees and hot chocolates, to their (apparently) famous Banana Bread and rooms which are simple but spacious and well-appointed.
The location is also convenient, near the main gate of the historic town of Shuhe, close to more Bongo shops, silversmiths and leather hand bag stores than you could ever want but far enough away from the noisy of the bars, further down near the canals.
We booked tours through Wil and Paul at the front desk and it could not have been simpler. The tours were on time, excellent quality and just as promised. I would thoroughly recommend booking all activities through them. We did the full day tour to Jade Dragon Mountain for the experience of a lifetime!!
I could hardly recommend this place enough... we will be returning in 2016 but will stay for much longer than four nights!!!
