__WeChat244685****A very comfortable guesthouse.
The owners were very welcoming; the owner was lovely, had a story to tell, and was very talkative. The whole family was very friendly and helpful, even helping with our luggage – thank you so much!! Actually, I wasn't really into the food in Dali this time, and was a little disappointed, but the owner recommended some nearby ”non-trendy” restaurants: Blueberry Fish and Ganggang Rice Noodles. They were within walking distance, delicious, and in a great location – right next to the March Street Market, and there's also a Lotus Root Shop nearby, which is great for browsing. It's also very convenient to walk to the Old Town.
And!! Peach the dog is so cute! A chubby little dog, so adorable and easy to pet. He even got up later than us this morning, haha!
Hope to see him again sometime!

GGuest UserThe room was very clean and well-equipped, and the bed linen and duvet covers all smelled lovely. The location is very convenient for getting around; the hotel offers electric scooter rentals, and there are car rental agencies and bus stops just a few hundred meters away. It's also very close to Yincang Road and Pingdeng Road, which have many interesting small shops. If you're looking for morning coffee, evening drinks, or independent bookstores, they're all within walking distance. The hotel has spacious common areas; the lobby on the first floor has a great atmosphere for socializing, while the second floor is perfect for studying (and there are cute cats to pet!).

AAnonymous UserThe large dog at the front desk was adorable, and the landlady was very friendly, sharing a map of authentic local restaurants.
I stayed in a double room, which was a bit small. I hope they can replace the curtains/bed curtains with blackout ones.
The location is quite convenient; Didi (ride-hailing service) can get you to the door. There's a communal area on the balcony for drying clothes.

XXiangrikuidiThis hostel is really fun! You can cook and share meals with other guests, and the volunteer staff are super interesting. There's a dedicated game room for playing Werewolf, mahjong, and they even have a projector. Sometimes at night, people play music, so you can sing along and chat.

NNatazaEnjoy my stay here. The bed is comfy. The bathroom is big and inside the room. The atmosphere of the hostel is nice. And it is near 大理古城. I can also store my luggage there when I checked out. Next time i will go back to Dali if I have chance, 洱海 really beautiful but it is a pity the weather when I stayed there is raining all the time.

BBluenoaThe staff are friendly and the location isn't far from Dali Ancient City. It's a wonderful place where guests can all gather together to eat and chat. If you're traveling alone or enjoy socializing and conversing with people, this hotel is perfect. In the evenings, there's true communication over a bonfire and beer. Everyone seems happy and full of energy. Thanks to them, I'm leaving with a lot of good vibes. I had planned to stay for two nights, but I finished sightseeing faster than expected and unfortunately changed accommodations to see the eastern side of Erhai Lake. If I come to Dali again, I definitely want to stay here once more.

GGuest UserWhat really caught my eye about this hotel was the desk; it felt so simple and understated. Since this was a spontaneous road trip, we just picked a hotel randomly, but I was pleasantly surprised! When we checked out, they even reminded us not to forget anything. Plus, during our stay, they shared some great hidden photo spots with us.

GGuest UserWhen I arrived they fast cleaned the bed- and bathroom. But especially the pillow and blanket was still filthy. At least I got fresh, when also broken, bedsheets and duvets. There is just one light in the room and the plug for my bed was on the wall on the other side, so I got an extension crossing the room. I may have been unlucky, but the girls that shared the room turned in the light also at 2:00 in the morning and had a loud discussion. There is no carpet in front of the bathroom. I slipped very bad at one point, after one girl had an shower and the floor was all wet. The owner was trying hard to give me a good experience and also the common area was nice. They even had free laundry.

GGuest UserThe usual hostel is undergoing renovations at the moment, so the actual accommodation is around the corner. I was quite lost until I texted the 'late entrance' phone number by chance and the owners father found me.
There is no bar, pool table or restaurant currently accessible but I'm sure it will be great when it reopens.
The room was lovely but very cold with a big gap under the door and a hole the size of a postcard in the bathroom. I think a more updated profile to reflect current amenities would be beneficial.

GGuest User✨【Five-star praise·Fairy Youth Hostel】✨
＞＞ First sight·A fairy tale world welcomed by cats
This fairy youth hostel must be given full marks! The moment you push open the door, you will fall into the healing barrier:
☀️ The sunlight passes through the glass greenhouse and flows on the log shelves filled with old books
🐾 Two plush tabby cats curled up in the cloud sofa - the cute treasures of the store, Dove & Xiaohei, are waiting in a standard welcoming posture!
＞＞ The two beauties in the store · the healing magic of Dove and Xiao Hei
🍫 ”Walking Caramel Macchiato” Dove:
The chocolate tiger stripes all over her body are like flowing velvet, and the squirrel tail is hooked around her trouser legs
Nirvana: rubbing her head + her meat pads blooming, conquering the human defense line in three seconds
☁️ ”Dark Night Hand Warmer” Xiao Hei:
The cold skin of a dark cloud stepping on snow × the clingy soul
Precision-guided jump into the arms of a cold-fearing girl, and roll herself into a 37℃ constant temperature pillow
＞＞ The perfect utopia for backpackers
🏡 The log-style room has its own cedar fragrance, and the healing design directly hits the heart of the literary youth
🎸 Unlock from time to time: folk music concert/chef competition from all over the world/starry night talk
🌄 The rooftop terrace easter egg: watch the sunset glow of Cangshan Mountain with a cat, and let the Dali wind turn the cat hair into a memory specimen
＞＞ Leaving the store critical strike · the affectionate retention of the cat owner
💔 Xiao Hei chased the suitcase and performed a ”10-mile farewell”
🧳 Dove performed the unique skill ”Cat and Bug Box Digging Technique”
❄️ Signed a winter contract with the shopkeeper: bring 10 kilograms of cat strips in exchange for breast massage service
[Final Appraisal] ★★★★★+
This is not a youth hostel, it is a fairy tale woven by cat hair! Humans, come in and be prepared to be marked for life by cats~
