I was very happy staying at the hotel for three nights. When I arrived I asked to change the room to the Starry Sky Double Bedroom, and it was the best room I've had of the same price anywhere - panoramic view of the mountain ranges 24/7). The hotel is run by a lovely family who live in the same compound (three generations living together I think). The owner and his wife are ready to assist you when you need. The hotel itself is super clean, with super modern toilet, and is very quiet. Its location is just at the edge of the ancient town - very convenient to get out and to get in. If you can make it on Fridays, there is a great Friday market nearby ( in the ancient city). The hotel can also arrange a shared ride to Lijiang, Dali etc. for you, which saves you the hassle of having to go to Jianchuan, then traveling on to wherever. I would stay there again if I have a chance to come back.

Response from Property: Dear guest, our whole family is very happy to see your detailed and heartwarming evaluation. Thank you very much for taking the time to share your three-night experience so specifically. You said that the Starry Sky Double Room is the best in the same price range, and you can also see the panoramic view of the mountains all day long. This is really the greatest affirmation for us. When designing this room, I thought "I must let the friends who stay here look up and see the sky, and see the mountains outside the window." It's worth it to be liked by you~ You noticed that we are three generations running the business together, and praised the owner and his wife for being willing to help at any time. In fact, the family gets together to take care of this small shop, hoping that the friends who come here can feel as comfortable as at home. You think we are enthusiastic, which is the best response to this intention. You said that the room is clean, the bathroom is modern and very quiet. These are actually the little things we focus on every day. After all, only when you live comfortably can you dare to hope that guests come often. The location on the edge of the ancient town makes it convenient for you to enter and exit, the Friday market can add some excitement to you, and carpooling to Lijiang and Dali can help you save some trouble. These are all what we should do. You said "I will come again if I have the chance", which is the greatest motivation for us. I wish you a pleasant journey and look forward to your visit again.

This homestay run by a leave in the family, and they go all out to make our stay comfortable. They can help you to book sharing a car to Dali or Lijiang at a very reasonable price. The homestay is just 2 mins walk from the taxi drop-off point, and you dont need to drag your luggage too far on the rubble road. Do note that inside the old town, vehicles are not allowed. The market and food stall is just 2 mins walk away, and you can find plenty of local food for breakfast and lunch. Next to the homestay you can find a cafe which serves good americano for just RMB9.90. Highly recommended to stay in this homestay.
Response from Property: Thank you very much for your thoughtful evaluation of our homestay! It is our greatest pleasure to create a comfortable living experience for everyone during the vacation time~ Helping everyone book affordable carpooling and choosing a location that is convenient for dragging luggage, all in the hope that everyone can run less and enjoy a more relaxing journey~ The fireworks of the old city are hidden in the market and food stalls within walking distance, and the 9.9 yuan American meal in the cafe next to it is also a small happiness that we personally recommend~ Your recognition makes us more motivated to continue this effort, and we look forward to being your warm foothold in the ancient city on your next trip~😊
Great location in the heart of Shashi. There is a magical balcony overlooking the street, we had a great stay there.
Response from Property: 謝謝您的喜歡呀!能被您誇位置好、陽台舒服,我們真挺開心的。沙溪的日子慢,有空常來呀!

Value for money accommodation. Best location, a stone's throw away from Sideng Square, cafes, restaurants & boutiques. I highly appreciate that it's located by the side of a main road, so I didn't need to struggle with my luggage on the uneven cobblestone path.
Response from Property: Dear guests, thank you so much for your recognition of our homestay! We are sincerely happy that the convenient location can bring convenience to your travel. We look forward to having the opportunity to receive you again in the future, and wish you a smooth journey in the future!

We really enjoy our stay. The place is clean and very close to the shaxi town. The toilet is so clean and felt like home. Although the room that we stayed is a bit cramped for 2 peoples.
Overall, we really enjoy our stay at the place and Shaxi. The people are much more lovely and warm hearted than bigger ancient city. The place is also very quiet and tranquil.
And for Muslim friends, you don’t have to worry. There are plenty of qing zhen / halal foods in the town.
We hope to visit Shaxi again next time.
Response from Property: 感謝您如此細緻又温暖的評價😊 很開心咱們民宿的乾淨整潔和便利位置讓您的沙溪之旅更舒心,廁所的細節能被留意到真的很感動~關於房間稍顯擁擠的小遺憾,我們也會持續優化房型佈局,希望下次能為您提供更寬敞的選擇 您提到沙溪的親切氛圍和清真食品的便利,真的太懂這裏的美好啦!小鎮的煙火氣和包容感一直是我們最想分享給客人的~能讓您和穆斯林朋友們都感受到安心,真是太值得開心了~ 期待下次您再來時,能帶着更舒展的心情重遇沙溪🌿
Everything was perfect. I had stained some clothes with berries and when I asked for vinegar to help clean it, I got vinegar and a brush within a few minutes. Nice place, good location.
Response from Property: 親愛的客人,看到“一切都很完美”這句評價,我們心裏簡直像灌了蜜一樣甜~。畢竟出門在外遇到小狀況難免的,及時遞上醋和刷子是應該的。 期待再次重逢

The Inn is located within walking distance to Shaxi’s main attractions. The facility is clean with good amenities. The boss is very warm and helpful. He greeted us with a big smile. He helped us carry luggages to our room. He also helped us organise a private car to go from Shaxi to Lijiang.
Response from Property: 親愛的客人,非常感謝您選擇Inn酒店並留下如此温暖的評價!得知我們的地理位置能讓您輕鬆探索沙溪的美景,乾淨齊全的設施為您帶來舒適體驗,我們倍感欣慰。尤其開心老闆的熱情服務能讓您感受到家一般的温暖,幫搬行李、安排車輛都是我們應該做的,您的滿意就是對我們最大的肯定~ 沙溪的美藏在每一條古巷、每一片星空裏,很榮幸能成為您旅途的驛站。如果未來您再次踏上這片土地,我們依然會用笑容和貼心服務迎接您,願您每次想起沙溪,都有一段温馨的回憶相伴~期待與您重逢!😊

Cozy little family-run hotel in a great location on the outer edge of Shaxi Ancient Town. The room is spotless and absolutely gorgeous with windows on all three sides and all the amenities you can think of. Nothing better than being woken up by the sunrise after a good night's sleep :)
Even though the owners don't speak English, communication was no problem with the help of a translation app. They are super friendly and even let me leave my luggage after I had already checked out so I could go hike Shibaoshan. I really wish I could have spent a little more time here!
Response from Property: Dear guest, thank you for such a wonderful review! We are pleased to provide you with a comfortable stay that will make you feel at home. We are so proud to see how much you love your room. Communication is no barrier, it is our honor to serve you, and we are happy to facilitate your Shibaoshan hiking trip. We hope you can spend more time with us next time! 😘, "Nanyuan Inn in the streets and alleys"
