I love everything about this place. It’s like being in a garden. The architecture and design are sleek yet traditional at the same time. They only have two rooms, so you won’t feel crowded with other travelers. During check-in, the owner gave us fruits and even came to our door to deliver fresh apples that she bought from the market. We stayed in the upper room, which is the king room. We were stunned as we entered. It was too beautiful with the morning sunlight shining through the windows and too huge for two people. The room is complete with a big king-sized bed and a huge window with a view of the snow-capped mountains. They have a huge dining table, a heater, and a big swing in the room. The bathroom and toilet design were beautiful too. Everything looks so new, modern, and clean. We dont feel like to check out 😆 The owners were super helpful. The husband and wife went the extra mile to assist us whenever we had questions. They even helped call a halal restaurant to make sure it was open for us to dine. On our last night, they invited us to have tea and snacks, and we talked until midnight. We really had fun staying here and will definitely come again.

    The location of the inn is very easy to find. It can be reached directly by car. It is very close to the north gate of the ancient city. You can see the entrance of the Old Town of Lijiang from the inn door. The boss warmly recommended a lot of food and play to us, so as to avoid the small travel partners stepping on the pit. The rooms are clean and sanitary. It is highly recommended to stay in this inn. The small partners who want to take a plane have a bus to the airport not far from the inn. It is very cheap.

    The location of the guesthouse is ideal as it is located within the Lijiang Ancient Town with shops right outside the doorstep. It is also only a 10 mins walk to the main road which is important since vehicle cannot enter the ancient town. The owners were extremely helpful and approachable. They offered to send our luggage to the main road since the uneven road makes it very difficult for us to pull the luggages. Love the architecture and environment. This place really transport you back to experience the old days.

    I spent 3 days and 2 nights in Lijiang, and staying at this hotel was the most comfortable for me during my trip to Yunnan. It was very clean and the bed was comfortable! The price is very affordable! The ancient city will arrive soon, and the prices of nearby small shops are also reasonable. The service is also particularly good, and the recommended one-day trip to the snow capped mountains has excellent quality and affordable prices.
