The fusion of Bai ethnic architecture with modern design brings delightful surprises, where white walls and grey tiles reflect flowing water and bamboo groves.

The room itself is beautifully designed and ultra-comfy, featuring a Marshall speaker, Dyson hairdryer, and Kohler smart toilet (😄 all brand-name goodies). Our room even had its own private little courtyard~ hehe The hotel breakfast was great too, with a wide variety. Staying in such a warm, comfortable place made the experience amazing! (And the photos turned out SO nice~)

Last time I came to Dali, I didn't do any research in advance. The homestay I stayed at was near a busy area, so it was a bit noisy, but it was very quiet with the windows closed. But Dali is so beautiful, so I came back. This time, I booked a homestay that suits my preferences. The rooftop viewing platform offers views of Cangshan Mountain, Erhai Lake, and the Three Pagodas. There is a courtyard in the middle 🏡, with cute little cats 🐈‍⬛. It feels like a hidden gem in the city. The afternoon sunlight shines on the bed. The beauty of this scene is so relaxing and pleasant. 🛏️ The bed is soft and comfortable, and we slept very well. The room is equipped with central air conditioning, underfloor heating in the bathroom, a Marshall speaker, a Dyson hair dryer, spring water, and a constant temperature shower, which surprised me. There is also an ancient architecture book collection. I really like the design style of this combination of a coffee shop and a hotel-style homestay. It's simple yet stylish, and every corner exudes a literary atmosphere. Escaping from the city, I found this quiet place to stay. Time slows down, and I enjoy the tranquility and beauty of the moment.
