To ensure the authenticity of the displayed ratings, we do not simply calculate an average. Instead, we take into account the review credibility and the date of the guest's stay to determine the final rating.
It's a small guesthouse in beautiful Shax towni. It is near the North Gate of the city, very easy to navigate.
The English name of it is the Alley. I think Xiangmo is the pinyin of its Chinese name.
The bed is big, clean, comfortable. They clean the room daily. Nice common areas for social activities.
I arrived earlier than the check in time, they offered me the room right away when it's ready.
Though staying there for 1 night, I really liked it. Highly recommend.
Nice place to stay in Shaxizhen. Very close to everything.
The only downside is that they only have squat toilets and that the bed is a bit hard, which can be uncomfortable for some people, but it was ok for me.

Great

Hostel was decent, and good value. Bed was hard but comfortable enough. Bathrooms were clean enough, although for foreigners just know there's only squat toilets. The staff were helpful, and good with using translators to explain everything which was appreciated. Location is great, perfect to spend a night in Shaxi for a good price. However there was no lock on the door to the room (although there is a small locker in the room), but given its a small town security isn't too much of an issue. I forgot to take photos of the rooms but the view from the roof is nice. Overall, decent stay.

Very Good

Nice friendly hosts, great location to transport and old town. We stayed in the double room and unfortunately it doesn’t seem like this room has been cleaned in a long time. Just putting clean sheets on a bed is not cleaning a room. The whole room and especially the bathroom needs a good thorough clean. It’s a shame because the rest of our stay was very pleasant but the cleanliness was a big let down, could have been 5/5
Response from Property: Thank you for your comments. We will strengthen the cleaning of the bathroom. Every time we finish cleaning, we will disinfect it. I'm sorry to bring you a bad check-in experience. We are actively changing. We look forward to your next visit!

I’ll give it a five-star rating because the price is really hard to find anywhere else in the ancient town. Being the first youth hostel is something that’s cherished, and providing cost-effective accommodation for backpackers may also be the original intention of the store. The environment of the small courtyard is very good. There is an electric blanket, so it is not cold when sleeping. I haven't lived in a dormitory for several years, and I relived the feeling of going to school again.
I really like it, not only this hostel, but also the people I met here. I met several people who said they thought Lijiang or Dali were too commercialized, while Shaxi felt that life was slow and comfortable. I will come to Shaxi next time and make a reservation again. The boss and the landlady are also very nice.

Shaxi Ancient Town has a long culture, a strong literary and artistic atmosphere, a beautiful environment and is not commercialized. It is very rare to maintain the original ecological environment. It is rare to find a youth hostel that is very suitable for living. The conditions are very good in all aspects. I will come back next time if I have the opportunity. Come.
This is a youth hostel full of warmth. The boss 🈶️loves and the residents 🈶️stories. Even the kittens are very clingy. They rush to warm themselves by the fire every day and set up a dragon gate formation every day.
