Which way will be the most convenient?

We are arriving in Guilin, July 17th, at 17:05.
Will be staying at Parkside Hostel, which has a transfer service for 120 rmb.
The pricetag will result in 60rmb each for the two of us.
Pretty good deal for a transfer service to the hotel, right?

I mean, a taxi would probably end up costing the same, or even more?

A bus, however is conciderably cheaper, but wont drive us close to where the hotel is, I think.

What do you think?
What would you have done?

Cheers
David
