Beautiful courtyard, adorable dog. The room was clean and warm. Everyone at the guest house was incredibly friendly, especially the "Teacher" was well traveled and interesting to chat with. He was also knowledgeable about the Tiger Leaping Gorge and arranged a carpool to drop me off at the trail head, deliver my luggage to the end point, then bring me to Lijiang train station on day 2. I was also added to a WeChat group with the driver and the guesthouse staff, and since I don't speak Chinese, it was really helpful to have them jump in when I needed something.

The cleanliness of the room and location was perfect. The staff (ie Jing Jing) went above and beyond to make us feel at home. They also helped organize our day trips. The A/C is strong relative to most places we have stayed at in China.

A wonderful homestay with warm, helpful owners who shared great local tips and thoughtfully arranged a ground-floor room for my elderly parents. Everything was excellent—just note that vehicle access can be a bit challenging due to the narrow road, and a short walk from the main road is required.

The staff was incredible - kind, attentive, helpful. There was a language barrier, but that was navigated with phone apps and using the bits of shared language we had. The room and garden outside were beautiful and comfortable - inspiring relaxation. The location was also nice because it was close enough to the tourist spots that we could walk (20 minutes to the “Ancient City”, but still far enough away to be quiet. Also a series of good restaurants near the hotel, so always good choices to eat. Finally, there were many adorable animals - Gary the dog, the pudgy male cat, a lovely Siamese and three perfect kittens - all friendly and non intrusive, they were there if you went to them but never pushed into your space. A splendid way to complete a family friendly hotel.

We highly recommended this homestay to everyone who is coming to Lijiang for the first time. This was actually the highlight of our trip. When we got to the place it was already close to midnight, we were tired but the host greeted us so warmly with hot tea and traditional rose cakes (that she continued to offer us the next days). They helped us with booking cars to travel between Lijiang and other tourist destinations. The homestay itself is situated in a perfect location, accessible to all parts of Lijiang Old Town by foot. It is also very cozy and warm, clean rooms and towels. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

Merry is a very responsive host that tries to fulfil our travel requirements. She helped to arrange value for money airport transfers and local tours (we went fo a day tour Shangri-la and visit most tourist spots along the way). It is such an experience staying in a traditional village guesthouse which is next to Zhongyi market with more than 100 shops and stalls. Near to bus stop to places of interest. We took Bus #101 straight to Yulong Snow Mountain resort for RMB15 one-way and pay our own entrance fee, etc. Very very convenient..

Amazing guesthouse, one of my favourite stays of all time. Great location and beautiful courtyard with spacious rooms, but what made it particularly special was the hospitality. From Zhang Xueping getting up early to prepare us breakfast every day, even with some extras for the hike, to Joye preparing all details of our hike to the Tiger Leaping Gorge, they went above and beyond to make our trip memorable and we would go back to this guesthouse just to see them again! The malamutes were the cherry on top!

Great feel at the hotel, like staying with a family. They are very welcoming and joye was a wonderful host. Loves a good chat in English. The rooms were traditional wooden decor rooms but with with very modern facilities! Perfectly located in the slightly quieter but only slightly 😆 part of the ancient town. Lots of shops and facilities around you, close to the South Gate around 7 minutes walk. Masjid nearby and enough halal options

The location in a quiet alley in the old town is perfect. There are flowers everywhere and the guesthouse looks so beautiful. You are in a different World, almost like in a movie. The staff is very kind and helpfull. They came to meet is and sent is of again early in the morning to catch a train to Dali so we did not had to carry our luggage in the old town and would not get lost. Is was very easy and friendly communicating with the staff.
