Overall, I had a good experience at this hotel

Very good service - the light bulb blowed and the manageress changed it within minutes. Her 3 year old daughter is bubbly, clever and fun girl.

Very basic hotel, near one of the entrance to ancient town, we were on the ground floor room, a bit noisy as owner and some guests talk very loud. The room is spacious and clean enough.
Response from Property: Thanks……

The location is good for walking about the Ancient city. The owner is friendly and helpful. The room and amenities are adequate.
The room was unique, clean, and hygienic, with an electric blanket and heating. The bathroom had a heated light, strong water pressure, and easy temperature control, making for a very comfortable shower!
The location was also excellent; you can easily walk into the old town from the alleyway, which is very convenient. Electric scooters are available for rent near the entrance for further destinations.
The landlady was very helpful and attentive, and very friendly. Overall, the experience was superb, and I will definitely stay here again next time I'm in Shangri-La!
For food, drinks, and entertainment, the landlady's recommendations are always a safe bet!

The guesthouse is in a super convenient location with lots of food options nearby. It's just a few minutes' walk from the prayer wheel. The rooms are spacious and clean, and the blackout curtains are such a thoughtful touch. Since I often stay up late for work, these curtains allow me to sleep for several more hours! Also, the owner's flatbread was huge and crispy, bigger than my head, and incredibly delicious!

Inside the "ancient town"—which is essentially a reconstruction project—transportation is inconvenient, streets are narrow, and public restrooms are scarce. It's similar to other major touristy ancient towns in Yunnan, catering mainly to travel photographers and the like.

Response from Property: Hello: Friend, you want to stay close to the old town, but you complain about the narrow roads and lack of public restrooms. Every room in your guesthouse has a bathroom; every guesthouse has public restrooms. Speechless.

N*** Old Quarter Hotel, the owner and staff are lovely, hospitable, friendly, if you need anything, just add their wechat (the app will automatically translate into both languages) and they will help enthusiastically. Even though I went alone, because I was hunting for a sale, I booked a room with 2 beds, they still provided the exact room I booked.

The location is good, the room is spacious and bright, the bed is comfortable, and the bathroom is clean and easy to use. The proprietress is very enthusiastic, arranged free parking, and recommended a special toast banquet. The performance was of high quality, and everyone had a good time eating and drinking.

Stayed here for several days in a row. The location is great, right in the ancient city. Be sure to call ahead for parking so that the owner can send you the parking location in advance. Parking is free! If you don't contact us in advance, you will just find a parking lot like us for 40 a day🌚 and the boss's parking lot is not far from the inn, which is very convenient. (The ecstasy chicken legs across the door are also delicious😋)
