The store has a small electric donkey rental service, which is very convenient for travel. The room is clean and tidy. The owner of the B&B is enthusiastic and patient to answer questions. Overall, it is highly recommended

The room is clean and hygienic. The service attitude is good and the staff is very friendly. The location is convenient. It takes five minutes to walk to the south gate of the ancient city. There are also various restaurants, supper shops and convenience stores around.

I booked a hotel on short notice when I came to Lijiang. I was pleasantly surprised. The room was very clean and tidy. There was a small balcony where I could sit and drink coffee and look outside. There was also a large platform on the fourth floor where I could hang clothes. I liked it very much. The room was also very soundproof. I had a very comfortable night.

The room is big and clean, and it is very comfortable to stay here. The guava is very sweet. The balcony on the fourth floor can be used to hang clothes, and the scenery is also very nice. There are many places to eat around, and there are delicious Guangdong rice rolls. It is highly recommended. It is worth staying here for a trip to Lijiang. It is very pleasant and perfect.

The room is big and clean, with a table and balcony where you can dry clothes. It is very close to the ancient city and very convenient. The boss is also very nice and enthusiastic.

There are snacks, and the south gate of Lijiang Ancient Town is just opposite, which is only a few minutes' walk away. There are many delicious alleys outside the B&B, and there is a grilled fish restaurant that is quite good, and the fish is wrapped in paper. Here are some pictures of Lijiang

The room is very good and clean. It should be newly renovated. There is also a starry sky ceiling. You can open it at night to see the stars. Although there are not many stars, the facilities are also new. Smart toilet. It is very convenient to go to the ancient city. It takes only a few minutes to walk.

Facilities: Newly opened hotel, the appearance looks very upscale Hygiene: The room is spotless, the cleanest one I have stayed in Lijiang👍 Every day, there will be an aunt to clean the room. If you need to change, you can also call the boss, very happy Environment: Supermarkets and pharmacies are very close, and there are many foods around. If you don’t understand, you can also ask the boss. He recommended some small restaurants with authentic tastes. The experience is very good! Service: We took the airport bus and got off at the South Gate. I called the boss in advance. The boss would ride a tricycle to take us and the luggage to the hotel, which was very worry-free. The experience of getting off the plane and going directly to the hotel is very good! The boss will help to grab the big cableway ticket for the snow mountain. It is very convenient to make an appointment with him in advance in the lobby of the hotel. The itinerary he helped to arrange saved a lot of money. Recommended!

Regarding the location of the B&B: 1️⃣It is difficult to walk in with a suitcase. The stone road is particularly difficult to walk. The owner of the B&B (a lady) came to pick me up. The picture below was taken on the way to the B&B and was shown to the boss. Speaking of which, the owner of the B&B came to pick us up with two suitcases in a small electric car... So she went back and forth twice just to pick up the suitcases... I once again emphasized that the road is really difficult to walk if you have a lot of luggage. It is not recommended to choose this place 2️⃣ When I returned to the B&B from Lijiang Old Town around 11pm, there was a very long road with no street lights, about 500 to 600 meters... It was the first time in my life to walk on such a dark road at night, which was a special experience. I was so scared that I was dying. I thought about a lot of real cases of female college students who were killed while walking at night, but luckily they made it to the B&B alive. As soon as they reached the B&B, there was light. There was also a cute dog named Hanhan, which healed me for a while, although it was not. He knows what I have been through. He is very well-behaved and easy to pet. He seems to be the dog of another owner of the B&B. About the internal environment of the B&B: The room was very big and smelled of formaldehyde. As soon as I walked in, my nose suffered. I felt uncomfortable for a while, so I left the B&B with my friends to eat in Lijiang Old Town. My friend also felt uncomfortable with the smell😞 The scenery is not bad, right? There was some construction going on in the morning and it seemed to be a bit noisy. My friend heard it but I didn't hear it. Maybe I was too sleepy. About the service of the B&B owner: 1️⃣The owner who picked up our suitcases at the beginning did not take the initiative to help us carry our luggage after we checked in. The room is on the third floor, so we asked if we could change to a lower-floor room but was rejected (this B&B does not have an elevator) I thought it would be easier to carry the luggage on the lower floor.) Finally, I slightly asked her to help carry the luggage. She complained while carrying it... It is rare to encounter this situation. Generally, it is not basic for B&Bs without elevators to help customers carry luggage when they encounter customers. Does it work? 2️⃣ When leaving, you can tell the other boss (a man) in advance what time you are going to leave. He will take us out on a tricycle and drive us to the intersection, which is on the roadside. It is better to take a taxi. This service is not bad. That's all. Originally I was just staying for one night to make a transition. This B&B is in this price range. After reading many reviews and photos, I can only say that I got it wrong. I hope this post will be helpful to people who want to choose a B&B in the future.

The boss is super nice! Very enthusiastic, the service of the homestay is also very thoughtful, there will be a special tricycle to pick you up at the intersection, because the road to enter is a stone road, and there is a distance, it is very inconvenient to drag the luggage alone. The room is also very new, and you can see that it has been carefully designed. The sanitation is also very clean. There will be an aunt to clean up around 12 noon to 1 o'clock every day. There are several small pets. If you like animals, you can pet them at any time! Hanhan is super clingy. Once I came back to the homestay late, I saw Hanhan guarding the door. After I came in, he followed me to the second floor. On the first day, the boss also gave me fresh fruits grown in his own home. Later, because I liked Lijiang so much, I stayed for two more days and chose to extend the room for three days, and then I moved to a room with a projector. Then the boss lent me his Bluetooth speaker. Who knows, it’s really cool to watch movies with Bluetooth! After chatting for a while, the boss knew that I like drinking very much, and recommended me a bar he likes very much. The atmosphere of the bar is also very good, the bar owner is also very talkative, and the resident singer is also very talented. I feel very lucky to be able to book this homestay. I met such a warm boss! They also have a package for Yulong Snow Mountain. Because I came alone and didn’t do any strategy, I wanted to find an agent online to grab it. Later, I heard from the boss that they also have a special package here. I booked it directly from him, which was very convenient and the price was quite conscientious and fair. The boss also helped me grab the ticket for the cable car! He is so nice. I will stay here again next time I come to Lijiang!

The room is very large and feels very spacious. The room is like the boss. The boss helped us arrange the trip, which saved us a lot of money. In hot weather, he also gave us watermelon to eat, which was cut very thick.... There is nothing that is not good. Good B&Bs in China, just stay there with your eyes closed.
