Pros:

Breakfast choice, launderette. Room decor and furniture. Cleanliness and housekeeping is a strength.

Cons:

They should warn guests there’s currently much construction work and erected fences in the immediate area making it hard to find the hotel - more signage in general. Pity there’s no gym. Staff were very robotic and not particularly friendly, even if English is limited you can at least smile and say “good morning”.

Cons:

The location is good and nice being at the centre of the city.....but there is construction work going on nearby making access quite troublesome honestly (well all is good other than that)

Pros:

Room was nice, but not the best place to stay.

The problems were as of the time of this review they are still fixing the road, so you can't call a car from the front, you have to take a walk around the corner which is an inconvenient place for the driver to pick you up. Apparently, this road has been under construction for the last 5 years, and the locals I spoke to think it will be the same for a few more years.

Other than that, the breakfast was revolting, the bread was hard around the edges, the eggs had a metallic smell to them which I didn't dare eat, and the one mouthful of coffee I did have immediately got spat back out, really not good. Couldn't even eat the bacon, and as I walked out of the dining room most plates had a substantial amount of food left on them. Ended up just ordering breakfast from outside after the second day.

Lastly, I thought it was pretty poor form to charge people upwards of 25 yuan to use the washer and dryer when most hotels that are actually cheaper just let you use the laundry facilities for free.

Anway the room is fine if you need to be in central Dali but other than that go to Gucheng instead.

房間好的酒店
Pros:

辦理入住設在酒店的3樓,大門前方修路工程,車輛無法進入,如果有很多行李的話就變得很麻煩。周邊都是一些批發市場,環境一般。早餐很簡單,不要抱著太多期待。
