9.7/10
Excellent
GGuest UserIt was a very pleasant stay. The atmosphere at CYC was fantastic, with separate work and activity areas where everyone could participate in various activities according to their interests. The community manager, Daoming, was also very attentive and professional, quickly resolving some initial accommodation issues. My stay was very comfortable for the next few days. We even had hot pot together and enjoyed music and singing – it was a wonderful time. There's also a garden nearby, which was less crowded and had a lovely environment. Overall, I highly recommend it! I'd love to come back again!

GGuest UserI‘m very happy with my experience here, the bed was extremely comfortable, the room was clean and had everything I needed. The host were extremely kind and helpful and they had a very sweet dog!
They only speak Chinese, so if you don‘t speak Chinese I would recommend having a translator app close by.

GGuest UserI was a little scared when I first got on the bus into the village, but after entering it exceeded my expectations! Being able to stay in a hotel with such facilities at this price next to the airport is really cost-effective.
It is a restaurant and accommodation integrated into one. Meals can be packed and sent upstairs to eat. I ordered sweet and sour pork ribs and stir-fried vegetables, which were delicious.
The rooms are newly decorated, better than hotels in the city. TV, WiFi, air conditioning, bathroom all worked cleanly and in good condition. The shower is a piano-key four-speed shower, so comfortable! There was a little problem with the WiFi in the middle. They came to fix it right away after I called. It was much more efficient than other hotels 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
It's super close to the airport, about ten minutes drive, and you can take me to the airport at around five in the morning, thank you 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

GGuest UserThe sanitation is very good, the facilities are simple, the service is good, the biggest problem is that the boys' hostel room is on the first floor, the door is a hollow wooden door panel, there is no sound insulation effect at all, it is not recommended for people with poor sleep

MM517927****This stay was fantastic! The location is super convenient, just a few minutes' walk to the subway station and shopping areas, making getting around and shopping a breeze. The room was clean, tidy, and odor-free, with soft and comfortable bedding and excellent blackout curtains – I got a great night's sleep. The staff were warm and attentive, always ready to answer questions and quick to respond. The breakfast had a rich variety of fresh options. The value for money here is unbeatable; I'll definitely choose this place again next time I'm in town!

AAnonymous UserAround 10min walk from railway station to the hotel. The host is lovely and she allows us for an early check in. The room size is quite small for 4 ppl but we stay here for 1 night so it’s acceptable with price and location. The location is perfect, few minute walk to bus station no.4 and you can just take this bus all the way to three pagoda, or Dali old town. From Dali old town, you can also take didi to the famous lake. Dali old town is very happening at night.

NNizhuibushangdedachangtuiThe location is very good, near the northwest gate of the ancient city, with a commercial street at the door, very close to the North Gate Farmers' Market, and one stop away from the intersection of March Street. The B&B allows for shared meals at noon and in the evening, 20 yuan per person for 5.6 dishes. The owner is very easy-going, and guests leaving that night can also rest in their rooms in the afternoon.

GGuest UserThe usual hostel is undergoing renovations at the moment, so the actual accommodation is around the corner. I was quite lost until I texted the 'late entrance' phone number by chance and the owners father found me.
There is no bar, pool table or restaurant currently accessible but I'm sure it will be great when it reopens.
The room was lovely but very cold with a big gap under the door and a hole the size of a postcard in the bathroom. I think a more updated profile to reflect current amenities would be beneficial.
