GGuest UserService: The service was incredibly welcoming. They contacted us in advance to confirm our arrival, and when we drove in, they guided us to their private parking lot. They also gave us plenty of recommendations for local attractions and dining spots.
Environment: The ground floor is a charming café, designed like a handcrafted workshop. After breakfast, you can head up to the rooftop and enjoy panoramic views of the ancient city. The rooftop garden is also beautifully designed! It's right next to March Street, and just across the road from the ancient city itself. It's super close to all the nearby attractions, which is great when you're traveling with kids because you won't spend all your time commuting.
Facilities: The facilities are quite comprehensive. The breakfast spread is extensive, a proper hotel buffet, which was a welcome change after eating rice noodles for several days straight. It was a pleasant surprise!

GGuest UserThis is indeed a high-rise unit in Xiaguan with amazing views. Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake are both right before your eyes. The location is super convenient, right next to the Erhai Pier. The room is neatly and warmly decorated. The young lady at the front desk was very enthusiastic and answered all our questions. Everything was arranged perfectly. The auntie at the restaurant was also very thoughtful, preparing different breakfasts every day. There's even a washing machine, which is a great convenience for those always on the go. An absolutely fantastic experience! :)

GGuest UserThe room has great natural light and is very spacious. Compared to similar places, the price is really friendly. The homestay's service is absolutely outstanding. It's located high up, offering unobstructed views of Erhai Lake. They even prepare an afternoon tea, so you can just relax, enjoy the breeze, and have some snacks – you could easily spend the whole afternoon there without needing to go out. It just so happened that we stayed on Lantern Festival, and the owner even prepared *tangyuan* (sweet dumplings) for us. We bought so many fireworks that night, we couldn't even set them all off, seriously, there were too many!
**Summary:**
Great service, clean facilities, and fantastic views. It's located in Haidong, so driving is recommended. Definitely a place you can book with confidence!

GGrabriella CresemciaThe building itself is quite old, but who knows there’s a gem hidden in it. We’re surprised! The host is really friendly & helpful. She helps us a lot with our tao bao orders. There’s a heater in the room and the bed.
They also have washing machine. And complete utensils. Although the location is a bit far away, but very tranquil

__WeChat13369****Extremely satisfied with this B&B, especially the housekeeper – five-star rating! I had a great time chatting with her; she took care of everything perfectly.
And the B&B's doggy ”staff member,” Little Burger, is super cute and cuddly!
The decor feels very much like home. When you pull back the curtains on the panoramic French windows, you see the wetland park outside, which is a popular spot for photos – there were even people taking wedding pictures at the entrance.
On New Year's Eve, we just drew back the curtains and watched the fireworks show directly from our room!
The rooftop offers an absolutely stunning view of the sunset!
And the cutest little dog in all of Dali, Burger! I truly love him; even three nights here wasn't enough.
Overall, the stay was flawless. Renting a car made getting around very convenient. I'll definitely be back!

XXingyundeO’DonnellWe stayed in the family room with our four-year-old and eleven-month-old babies. It was on the top floor with large windows offering mountain views from multiple angles, which was very pleasant. The guesthouse owner was incredibly welcoming; she met us at the intersection, helped with our luggage, cooked breakfast for us, and responded instantly on WeChat. I have to specifically mention that her fermented tofu was absolutely delicious! The guesthouse's location is also excellent – very close to Foreigner Street on foot, yet it's not noisy; you can't hear any music, and it's quiet every night. There's a convenience store nearby, and right across the street is a local Bai family restaurant. For tie-dye experiences, there are two shops right at the intersection. Overall, the location is super convenient. It was a very satisfying stay.

GGuest UserThe room was very comfortable. I took a taxi to the hotel but the driver dropped me off under a big tree and I couldn't find the way. Fortunately, the boss came to pick me up. The bosses were super nice. The boss seemed to be a retired soldier, so I felt very safe. Hehe! As soon as I entered the door, I was amazed by the small courtyard! The room is beautiful and clean, and I am very satisfied overall! ! Dali, a place full of redemption! The scenery is beautiful, the food, accommodation and people you meet are all very comfortable. It is a city you will fall in love with over and over again! Thank you for your care, I will come to your house next time I come to Dali and wish you a prosperous business.

JJate SopitpongstornThis is a truly unique place that feels like stepping into a serene tea house. The atmosphere is peaceful, with a beautiful garden that adds to the charm. The rooms are cozy and well-maintained, and the corridor is exquisitely decorated with small plants, wood, and rocks, creating a natural and calming vibe.
The property is situated among preserved buildings that share the same traditional architectural design, making you feel as though you’ve traveled back in time to the olden days. It’s a perfect blend of history and comfort.
Mr. Wang, the gentleman who manages the place, is incredibly friendly and helpful. He went out of his way to provide excellent advice on where to visit in Dali, which made my trip even more enjoyable.
Overall, this is a hidden gem that offers a unique experience, combining traditional aesthetics with warm hospitality. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and memorable stay in Dali!

GGuest UserThis place truly made me feel at home. I arrived at the hotel starving after my business trip, heading straight into a solo vacation. The owner's father personally picked me up from the airport and even made me a warm bowl of noodles. The rest of my stay was wonderful. The room had an unbeatable location; I could see Erhai Lake and Cangshan Mountain the moment I woke up, and enjoyed both sunrise and sunset, plus the evening 'fish lanterns'. Reading, sunbathing, and feeling the breeze from Erhai Lake on the balcony – it was incredibly relaxing. The only downside was that the room was so comfortable, I barely wanted to leave to explore! The owner, knowing I was tired, even brought my takeout right to my room. I wish all hard-working people like them continued success!

GGuest UserThis inn gets a perfect score! The facilities are both modern and inviting, and the central air conditioning ensured a supremely comfortable stay. Rooms were spacious with expansive views, and the setting was private and tranquil. The courtyard design was exquisite, and the evening lighting was incredibly romantic. Service was incredibly attentive; from check-in to check-out, the staff were always smiling and ready to assist. They even helped us arrange transportation and book tickets. Cleanliness was exceptional; towels and bath towels were replaced daily, and everything was thoroughly sanitized, making our stay completely worry-free and reassuring. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Dali!
