Mancaoju Inn (Lijiang Ancient City Dashuiche)

Great hotel situated just north of Lijiang ancient city. The hotel is in a very nice little peaceful street with traditional Chinese buildings, just a 5 minute walk from the old town. There is a balcony on the 3rd floor with a great view of Lijiang ancient city. The owner is very kind and helpful. He helped us book a tour to Blue Moon Valley and Yulong snow mountain. He also let us use his washing machine which was very kind.

Pro: 1. Close to Dayan Ancient Town North Gate entrance. Just across the street. 2. Close to 遇见丽江 bus station and airport bus station. Walking distance within 10mins and 20mins respectively. 3. Nearby has many eateries and convenient shops. 4. Scenic view of the Ancient Town at the top floor. Nice place to chill out. 5. Friendly and helpful owner, assists by a welcoming cat - tuan zi Con : 1. May be tough for those who has mobility limitation as ones need to climb up few flight of stairs. 2. Toilet has no door, but a curtain. May be challenging for those who has concern of privacy.

Great accommodation, great family! I loved the view from the rooftop. Also nice rooms at the rooftop. Great value for money. I enjoyed the tea ceremony with the owner accompanied by the very friendly cat! :-)

it was very pleasant stay at this Inn I have booked queen size bed, single room, which was very nice and comfy compared to its price and location you might be find, the room condition is not that tidy and clean but the building is old naxi style inn so you can't complain as it's price as low the owner of this Inn, very nice and friendly guy he always tries to help guests during your stay and he offers me various Yunnan tea everyday, also even had a nice dinner together that he cooks for me he only speaks Chinese, so it is good opportunity that you can improve your Chinese speaking and hearing skills, but also you are good to use translator the location of this Inn is just about 2 min away from north gate of lijiang old town from the rooftop, you can enjoy night scenery of lijiang old town every night therefore there's one thing you need to be aware, this Inn is located at the top of the hill, so you cannot access to Inn with wheelchair of course, there is no lift as the whole lijiang area is full of hills and mountains so if you are planning to stay in lijiang, you may need to buy some air canisters to adjust your body for few days oh and can't forget to mention about the young cat Thuan Zi, he's just few months old cat, calm and lovely he never bites me during my stay :), what a gently cat, never seen a cat like this calm and peaceful there's more things that I can mention about this Inn but I will replace it with some pictures that I took from here so, long story short, if you don't mind it's location(on the hill), tidyness(the building is old, so you can't expect super clean room) but the price can tell you it is reasonable I would recommend to stay at this Inn :) because of warm hearted host and the way of he treats guests
