I recently had the pleasure of spending a pleasant weekend at the lodge's youth hostel. The overall experience was very good, especially its value for money and spacious public areas. The following are some of my detailed feelings:
1. Affordable Price: I think it is very good value for money considering the facilities and services provided.
2. Comfortable accommodation environment: The beds in the room are clean and comfortable and equipped with necessary living facilities, such as free Wi-Fi, hot shower, etc. Each bed is also equipped with a reading light and a private locker, ensuring a certain degree of privacy and convenience.
3. Spacious public areas: The public areas are a highlight of this hostel. Not only is it large, it's also well designed, with a comfortable entertainment area, a spacious dining table and a fully equipped kitchen. Whether you want to relax, socialize or cook your own delicious food, you'll find the right space here.

Loved LOVED this hostel! quite easy to get to from the train station and a 15min walk to Dali old town, but there's also a really frequent free shuttle service on offer to get you from the hostel to the old town and back. very clean, wonderful views from the roof and various public spaces and balconies. great social area, and I'm so happy to have made so many friends there. the hostel also offers various group trips to main sights around Dali for really reasonable prices - the best thing is that the tour guide also takes pretty professional photos so you get your memories recorded throughout the trip! the hostel also has cute cats and a big fluffy dog!

The front desk staff are friendly and eager to provide information. The location is in the center of the business district, which is convenient for shopping. Here you can chat with many friends and get their experiences. The service staff are also willing to help solve problems. However, if you stay in a private room, it will be easier if there is a lounge upstairs. It smells like smoke and is noisy. It is suitable for a room with multiple people and is cost-effective. The electricity and hot water systems happened to be unstable during those few days. This is the only drawback.

Environment: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
The large floor-to-ceiling glass in the lobby is my favorite. Outside is a small forest, and occasionally you can see wild squirrels.
Hygiene: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Auntie cleans the house every day. The bedding is very clean and the mattress is very comfortable.
Service: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
The front desk service is very good. Just like friends, volunteers will help carry luggage and guide the way to introduce the environment and equipment of the youth hostel.
Facilities: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
There is a dedicated clothes drying area on the third floor, as well as a washing machine and dryer, which I think is very considerate.

Excellent experience here, and they accept international guests. The pods are really cool and well taken care of, the location is right by the ancient town, and the common area is stylish and friendly.
The host was very personable and he even gave me a scooter ride to the bus stop when I left.
To find it, the Baidu map location seems not to be correct, but the trip.com map is. It's at the end of a little lane - there's a big barber pole on the main road at the start of the lane.
Thank you!

The 4-person room in the new courtyard is on the second floor for girls and the first floor for boys. It is located in the ancient city with convenient transportation. The facilities in the courtyard are very new and complete. There are kittens that patrol at 7 o'clock and randomly favor a bed. There are also shared meals and board games in the group, which is very active. Maybe because there are mostly young people, the werewolves can't be killed at night and the noise is loud.

Hosting
Friendly and smiley. Took up bags without asking. Answer questions over wechat. Even the other guests were friendly! Usually Chinese visitors don't really speak to me (which is fine of course), but the girls I shared a room with even asked me to dinner with them and shared food
Location
The pictures they have down for the exterior, it's actually to the left of that. walking distance to the ancient village and chongsheng temple. easy trips to the lake.
Amenities
Fridge, washing machine, hair dryer, shoe dryer, toiletries, kitchen area etc. all included. There's like a communal courtyard area as well and I believe you can eat there too but you need to book it the day before by a certain time.
Bathroom
Sit down toilet. Shower. Toiletries. Looks a bit shabby at first glance but the shower toilet and sink are all working and very clean
Room
Lovely thick mattress (I've found they are usually quite thin in Chinese hostels so this was a nice surprise). Heater if needed. I'm not entirely sure how the lock on the door is supposed to be done.
Overall great atmosphere. The pictures look a little bit rough around the edges but its honestly fine and i think I could stay here a while

The room is spacious and bright, and the yard is also quite large. Most importantly, the inn has a good location, next to the farmer's market at the north gate, which makes it very convenient for shopping and eating.

AAnonymous UserThe layout of the inn is very warm and gives people a homely feeling. The location is very good, and it is only a 10-minute walk to Renmin Road. Parking is convenient and taxis are also convenient. The boss is very enthusiastic and will solve any problems immediately. The bathroom facilities are modern and easy to use. Free mineral water is provided every day. In short, it is recommended!!!

2. The boss is very good, the rice noodle shop recommended to us, it is delicious, and I also made coffee for me, borrowed the computer to pass me photos, gave me Amway skin care products, the boss’s mother is also super gentle, the boss’s puppy golden hair cloth is super enthusiastic, it is simply a little angel
3. Also lend me laundry detergent, it is super convenient to dry clothes on the top floor
4. The four-piece fabric on the bed is super comfortable

SSteven DowsonSong and Dave speak excellent English and Song especially was very helpful and apologetic about only having a room with two single beds rather than the double we booked (a conflict between bookings made on Trip & C-trip). Nevertheless the beds were comfortable and we slept well. Room was clean and tidy although no toilet paper and the flexible shower broken (large overhead shower working). No kettle in room but community water boiler on ground floor in courtyard. Nice atmosphere in hotel and architecturally satisfying, great views from roof where there is a place to do laundry and hang clothes to dry. Short walk to ancient town, and the neighborhood around the hotel also worth exploring. Recommended.

GGuest UserThe room is cleaned every day and has a sense of design. The atmosphere of the youth hostel is warm. People who get together to talk and laugh are good friends. It is very suitable for traveling alone to find a companion. The store manager is also very nice, the service is very thoughtful, the volunteer brothers and sisters are also very friendly, and the kittens in the store are also very cute hahahaha! When necessary, you can also find the store manager to organize a group to check in the scenic spots. Xizhou Ancient Town and Shaxi Ancient Town are highly recommended. My friends must rush! ! This is a very unforgettable trip for me!

AAnonymous UserIt was my first time in Dali. I was lucky and fortunate to book this inn. The shop assistants were very enthusiastic. If I couldn't find the address, I would call and come to pick me up. The yard of the inn was also very comfortable. The work area was clean and hygienic. In the lively ancient town, this homestay was very quiet around the corner. I stayed there for another day offline. In short, it is a five-star recommendation! I will stay here again next time I come to Dali~

GGuest UserSince it was a temporary decision to go to Dali, I hurriedly chose a hotel by feeling, and decided to renew the lease immediately after arriving! The price/performance ratio is very high, better than the more than 800 we ordered in Banna
Transportation: The boss came to pick him up in person, the boss is very considerate and gentlemanly
Hygiene: very clean, and the hygiene of dead corners is also in place
Environment: You can see the beauty of Erhai Lake, which cannot be captured by cameras and mobile phones. It is recommended to come and experience it in person.
I am very happy that I booked such a favorite hotel when I came to Dali for the first time. I will continue to stay here next time I come to Dali.

GGuest UserThe sheets were very clean and had no peculiar smell. It was the first time I stayed in a hostel that didn't smell like a hotel. It felt like sleeping in my own home. The only drawback was that the public bathroom was a bit small. Another point was that there was no one when I checked in. The only person who greeted me was The boss’s cute little kitten. After packing up his things, he went out and went back very late. He didn’t even see the boss or his friends at the hotel. When he came back, my roommate told me that someone had a birthday and left me a piece of cake😭😭 😭I’m so touched, I feel the atmosphere is great

The proprietress adjusted me to a twin room. The environment of the inn is very good. If you want to cook by yourself, you can buy vegetables and use the boss's kitchen. The boss has a bicycle at home and can rent a ride to the Erhai Sea.

AAnonymous UserFirst of all, the hotel accepts foreigners (as of April 2024). It's located a few minutes' walk from the train station, and the bus to the old town area takes about an hour. There are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The room was large and in good condition. The staff was kind and helpful, allowing me to store my bag after check out. Perhaps the only issue is that the sound insulation is not great. Overall, great value for money.
