"Traveling with my child to Dali, this guesthouse was our first stop. Its location is excellent, very close to the main street of East Gate. The design is clever, the rooms are spacious, and the layout is well-planned. What really won my child over were the three chubby cats at the guesthouse! The front desk staff were the absolute best – warm, thoughtful, and gave us so many helpful tips for sightseeing. When we left, they even gave my child a fridge magnet. It was a wonderful experience, and we'll definitely stay here again!"

The front desk staff were all great, except for the male receptionist on our first night who was a bit short-tempered. Everyone else was wonderful, especially the male receptionist who helped us with our luggage after check-out today and even gave us a souvenir. We really appreciate him! Highly recommend this place to friends who love ancient aesthetics and photography."

"I arrived at 2 AM that day, but thankfully the front desk staff was still there to check us in. It was a shame we had to check out right after waking up. Before leaving, I asked the front desk guy for two Americanos (it wasn't explicitly offered, but it was included in our package). The location was great, though I didn't really get to enjoy it, and it wasn't cheap."

"Stayed for two nights 🌃. It was very quiet and close to the East Gate. Housekeeping cleaned every day. The only thing missing were disposable slippers. They did provide disposable toiletries, and there was air conditioning. It's really cold in Dali this time of year, and it rained 🌧️ all day. The service was good 👍 and the facilities were decent."

"Before coming to Dali, I looked at many hotels and guesthouses, a ton of reviews and pictures, and finally chose this one. After actually staying here, I feel like I made the right choice, and my previous concerns were completely unnecessary. The rooms, lobby, and courtyard facilities all look new, like they've been recently renovated. While they might not be super 'glamorous,' there's no sense of being old or dated, which is exactly the vibe I like. The room was very clean, and the bedding and bathroom facilities were all very comfortable. The location is in an alley next to Renmin Road, and you can walk out to the main street in just 10 seconds. It's super convenient for dining, drinking, and shopping. However, when you return to the guesthouse at night, it's incredibly quiet, not noisy at all, which is so important for travelers. From the upstairs terrace, you can see the panoramic views of Cangshan Mountain and the ancient city. Both the sunrise and night views are breathtakingly beautiful. For this price, in the core area of the ancient city, it's truly excellent value. The photos are consistent with the actual place, no 'photo trickery.' The owner is also very warm and hospitable. They reminded us to bring an umbrella when it rained and to wear sunscreen when it was sunny. Overall, this guesthouse gives you a beautiful sense of being nestled in the ancient city's vibrant life while experiencing its poetic charm. I would definitely recommend it to friends!"

"Came with friends and experienced three room types (, Shuo, and ). In general, this is the best homestay I have ever stayed in Dali. Facilities: Because it is a newly opened homestay, the facilities are complete and very new. There are smart housekeepers and projectors in the whole house. Children like it very much. Hygienic: The whole homestay is very clean and tidy, the bathroom is separated from wet and dry, the hair dryer is very easy to use, there are disposable toilet pads and sterilized slippers, and the washing set smells good. Environment: The homestay is located in the villa area of Linyihai, very quiet, there is a Linhai trail within five minutes of leaving the community, and there is a car rental service in the community. You can see the sea view in and , and they are equipped with an outdoor balcony. You can also choose to look out of the window on the tatami (P1). And the hotel's 4F also has an open-air rooftop, with lawns and tables and chairs on the rooftop, you can go up to see the sunset and the evening breeze at any time (P2) Service: The boss family is very enthusiastic, not only has the exclusive butler courtesy of the all-weather, but also the free afternoon tea that can be delivered to the room (it's delicious but I forgot to take pictures. . . . . . . ) You can also consult the boss before the house, almost seconds back. The boss will also provide a guide to adapt to different travel days. Follow the guide to eat several stores are very delicious 😋 In the morning 8:00-10:00 there is an aunt who cooks breakfast personally, and I can continue if I don’t have enough (it’s delicious but I forgot to take it). There is also Abe's pick-up service [one-night stay and exclusive transfer benefits (one-way pick-up and drop-off at the airport/high-speed rail station)] is a multi-seat business car, and also helped us catch up with the high-speed rail (if you want to check in, pay attention to make an appointment with the housekeeper in advance before departure) Finally, I wish the boss's homestay better and better, and the bigger and bigger!"

"What I liked about the hotel: I chose it because it's an American brand hotel, and I figured their operating principles would be more standardized. The location is excellent; you can take bus 8 directly from the high-speed rail station and it drops you right at the entrance. We used public transport to visit several attractions in Xiaguan, which was a relaxed way to travel without the crowds. Getting to Dali Ancient City, climbing Cangshan Mountain, and seeing Erhai Lake by taxi was also very convenient. What I didn't like 👎: The no-smoking signs were scarce and not prominent enough; this needs improvement. For example, the signs were small, the message was unclear, and they were placed in inconspicuous locations. The ashtrays integrated into the trash cans by the elevators are misleading and implicitly suggest that smoking is allowed. Non-smokers always outnumber smokers, so I hope the hotel will enhance its brand quality and strictly enforce smoking control measures. Otherwise, it will continue to be criticized for hypocrisy. Personal tip: When taking a taxi, choosing a female driver can reduce the frequency of exposure to second-hand smoke."
