I highly recommend Hongwu Inn next to Crescent Lake Scenic Area! The most surprising discovery of this trip! The inn is full of rich Northwest style. From the decoration to the details, you can feel the unique charm, and the photo taking is super atmospheric📸! The room is warmly decorated, the latex mattress is soft but not collapsed, and a good night's sleep directly cures the fatigue of the journey~
The boss is warm and hospitable, and he provides thoughtful service from check-in to check-out, and patiently answers all kinds of questions! The room has obviously been carefully disinfected, and the hygiene is spotless, so even people with mysophobia can stay at ease✨. It is super convenient to eat and park around, and you can reach the scenic area on foot, and you can also walk at night to feel the tranquility of the desert.
Whether it is the environment, service or comfort, it is impeccable. It is definitely the first choice for accommodation in Crescent Lake, and it must be a five-star rating! I will stay here next time!

The check-in experience was very good. The boss was very nice. The inn was on the second floor. He helped me carry my luggage when I entered. Because there were few people in the off-season, the boss also upgraded the room type. It was very spacious, the environment was very good and clean, the mattress was very soft, and they would come in to clean it every day. There was air conditioning and a small refrigerator in the room. Recommended

Response from Property: [The owner of Hongwu Inn expresses his gratitude in reply] Dear guest: Hello! Thank you very much for choosing Hongwu Inn and leaving such a thoughtful review! It is our greatest honor to provide you with a comfortable journey. Although the inn is on the second floor, your words "spacious and clean" are the best affirmation for us. We upgrade your room type during the off-season so that friends who come from afar can feel the tranquility of the desert more comfortably. We clean every day and provide air conditioning and a small refrigerator so that you can relieve your fatigue as soon as you open the door. You said the mattress is soft, which reminds us of the moonlight in Dunhuang - gently supporting every expectation of a long journey. What you mentioned about "helping with the luggage" is just a small favor, but I appreciate your consideration. Here by the Crescent Lake, we always believe that the warmth of an inn does not lie in the height of its floor, but in the sincerity with which we meet. Thanks again for your recommendation! May your memory include not only the sunset at Mingsha Mountain, but also the lamp that was lit for you on the windowsill of Hongwu Inn. No matter when you come back, there will always be a pot of hot tea and starlight here. The wild goose's footprints have traveled far through the yellow sand, and the camel bells are still ringing on the way home! Wish you a safe journey. Sincerely from Hongwu Inn. #守方小栈等四海旧友#

The inn is in a good location, close to Crescent Lake, and has complete surrounding facilities.
The architecture, decoration, and furnishings of the inn are very Western-style, and you can feel like you are there.
The room is clean and hygienic, which is a blessing for people with mysophobia.
The service attitude is good and the response is timely.

Response from Property: Dear guest, I heard that you have completed the "Dunhuang style immersive experience copy" in my inn, and gave me a five-star praise! The shopkeeper was so excited that he almost performed a 360-degree sand sliding turn on Mingsha Mountain! You really have a keen eye! Our location is Dunhuang CBD (front row of sand view), Crescent Moon Lake is our 5A-level neighbor, and we can go to the spring to exchange secret signals with Brother Camel~ As for the exotic buff, we secretly invited the flying fairy in the Western Region murals as a decoration consultant, and even the camels at the door often get lost: "Is this a mirage?" Good news for mysophobes? Oh, this is the KPI of our broom cleaning team! The sheets are whiter than the moonlight of Crescent Moon Lake, and the floor is bright enough to reflect the shadow of the Nine-Colored Deer. Even if you come with a microscope, we dare to take it! (Warm tip: feel free to roll around, after all, it’s still a sterile experience after rolling around) As for the service, we have maxed out the "Dunhuang Flash Skill". After all, in the desert, the response speed must be faster than a camel sprint! Next time if you want to listen to the Sand Singing Mountain BGM in the middle of the night, we will even prepare a loudspeaker for you~ Thank you for this rainbow fart that can be written into the inn's family tree! Dunhuang Hongwu Inn will always keep a pot of apricot peel water, three simulated camels, and an entire desert starry sky for you~ Next time you come, please say the code: "Good luck, no worries!" ——Your happy hometown in the desert · Hongwu shopkeeper bows respectfully 🌵✨

We booked a big kang and it was very easy to sleep on. We didn't get up until twelve o'clock. The location is also very good, not far from the Crescent Spring Scenic Area. When we went to the scenic spot at 6 o'clock, the sun was shining, so we sat on a tricycle at the door. We came back in the evening and walked there quickly.

The Qinghai-Gansu Grand Loop Line arrived at Dunhuang Station and booked two nights at Hongwu. It can only be said to be perfect. In addition to the advantage of being close to the scenic spot, the internal environment is extremely good. It is nearly half the distance of the Grand Loop Line. I was so tired that I almost died. I can say that I am the luckiest to stay in this inn. The boss lady is so enthusiastic. She went directly to the parking lot to help with the luggage. The breakfast was delicious. When leaving the store, my daughter bought souvenirs for her friends. These small items are much cheaper than the scenic spots. It is an absolute conscientious merchant

The room is not too big, but very comfortable. The lady boss is very nice and responsive. She can meet all our needs. The things in the store are very cheap and reasonable. The refrigerator magnet is 5 yuan each, which is 10 yuan outside. In short, it is run very carefully. Recommended

I like the style of the inn, and the babies' new travel experience +1! It is clean and tidy, and the big kang is very comfortable to sleep on, and the babies roll around as much as they want. The boss is very considerate and asked us if we need extra quilts. The inn is right in the scenic area, and parking is very convenient. You can walk to the middle gate of Mingsha Mountain, avoiding the trouble of not being able to park and traffic jams everywhere.
After visiting the Dunhuang Museum, eating, checking in at the Dunhuang Bookstore, returning to the inn to have a good rest, walking to Mingsha Mountain to watch the sunset in the evening, and eating authentic cold noodles + sweet embryos on the way back to the inn, it feels great, and walking back to the inn to take a bath, a perfect day!
