The Inn is located just opposite to the north entrance of Lijiang Ancient City and separated by a busy main road.
Convenient transportation such as Bus/Didi/Taxi are able to reach to the front entrance of the Inn easily.
The room bed matress is clean and comfortable to sleep on.
At the second floor level, you can enjoy the breathtaking view overlooking the Lijiang Ancient City from the terrace and beside there is also a large living room with sofa set and tables to unwind after a hard day travelling.
Unlike modern hotels where you can easily get to stay in many cities not only in mainland China but also around the globe, experiencing staying in an old Yunnan traditional ancient building(although operating as Inn) give me a valuable feeling and also a memorable stay.
To me, with the low room rates offered by the Inn as compared to modern hotel room rates is a no brainer. It is just like operating a philanthropy-like business.
Last but not the least, the loving couple taking care of the Inn is very friendly and helpful for the booking of tour packages on my behalf as well as the communication in work.
Response from Property: Thank you for painting the stars and the moon in the painting of Banshandu! You understand the tacit understanding between the eaves of the ancient city and the stars, and you also discover the fireworks world hidden in the frame of the terrace. I hope this mysterious memory of "touching the stars three feet away from the city" can become a cup of moonlight tea when you look back at Lijiang. When the leaves of the sycamore fall, the red door will still be ajar for you.

Awesome experience homestay. Location is just opposite the entrance of old ancient city of Lijiang. There is a stairway up to this homestay and the owners are so helpful to carry up and down during check in and checkout. The owners are helpful to suggest and organise day trips. There is no need to go for group tours as you can customise your trips by going to old ancient city and check out. Weather had been gloomy and rainy in march so the view is not as good. Low season. Will visit and stay here as it’s convenient.

Lovely hotel, outside the noise of the old town; but just in front of the entrance. The owner was very helpful with finding a transport to various cities, and the bedrooms are perfectly clean and well designed. Beautiful wooden bed frames and furniture.

The hosts are incredibly kind. If you can't speak chinese then translation apps make it very easy to communicate. We were given local tea and snacks to try as we were checking in and out, and advice was given about where to go and what to try. Our room was comfortable and clean.
Response from Property: Moonlight remembers the way you stopped at the crossroad by the mountain while slightly intoxicated, and the bougainvillea also bloomed a few more flowers for those who understand it. The real Lijiang always grows in the silence at the turn of bustling alleys. May this feeling of being slightly intoxicated and accompanying the mountain to cross the river be stored in your heart as a fine wine of the years.🌹🌹🌹

Lovely hotel, really friendly staff. Heating in the room, and an electric blanket on the bed! Great location just across the road from a very nice chill bit of the old town.
A bit of building work going on around the hotel, but wasn't really a bother.

The room is clean and quiet, the owner is very friendly, and the location has a wide view, overlooking the ancient city! Worth recommending!

Response from Property: Thank you for painting the dawn, dusk, stars and moon into the time painting of Banshandu! You understand the tacit understanding between the eaves of the ancient city and the stars, and you also discover our world of fireworks hidden in the picture frame of the terrace. May this mysterious memory of "touching the stars three feet away from the city" become a cup of moonlight tea for you when you look back at Lijiang. When the leaves of the phoenix tree fall, the red door will still be ajar for you.

The hotel is located very close to the old town, but on the other side of the main road, so it would take a good 30-minute walk through the old town to get there. There's also a bus stop (buses to the train station) right next to the hotel, less than a 5-minute walk away. Unfortunately, the buses don't run at specific departure times.
Our room was tidy and clean. We were particularly pleased with the washing machine.☺️
We were able to use the roof terrace for breakfast, and we had a pretty good view of the city.
The owners don't speak English and offer communication via WeChat. Unfortunately, we felt this didn't work very well (perhaps it was due to the translation). They couldn't provide us with any information about our questions about public transportation for our planned activities (departure location/time/duration) and only recommended a DiDi/taxi.
Overall, we can recommend the accommodation.

Response from Property: Dear foreign guests, welcome to Lijiang, China! At the same time, thank you for your choice of Lijiang, China Lijiang trip with Shandu Lijiang, the hotel and made your recognition! As for your question about the distance between the hotel and Lijiang Old Town and the transportation, I would like to tell you that our hotel is only one block away from Lijiang Old Town. It takes less than 1 minute to walk through the zebra crossing. The old town of Lijiang covers an area of 7.2 square kilometers, the starting point of your visit to the hotel can not be considered, the hotel has video distance measurement upload platform! In terms of transportation, some scenic spots in Lijiang are not allowed to use the bus, and the bus number is also told. As for the exact arrival time, I believe that no one can tell you exactly! The hotel staff has informed you and advised you on the most affordable means of transportation, your inquiry and hotel response are recorded, and the hotel provides this credential to the platform! The hotel has received numerous foreign guests and has been able to have questions and answers, and has never traveled with a communication barrier issue! So for these three points you mentioned, please excuse the hotel for not apologizing to you[微笑]I wish your distinguished foreign guests a pleasant journey.[太阳]

The boss is super nice and replies quickly. The courtyard on the third floor is also nice, from which you can see the scenery of the ancient city. It is just opposite the north gate of the ancient city, which is super convenient. The barbecue at the door is also delicious!

The boss has a very good service attitude, very enthusiastic and patient. The hotel is clean and tidy, the room is warm and spacious, and the hotel is in a prime location, opposite the entrance to the ancient city. The room price is also very affordable and cost-effective! Not only did I get a comfortable and pleasant stay, but I also got some immersive experiences, which was awesome!
