Review from solo frugal traveler MAY23:
I had the double private bedroom with private bathroom. Here are the pro's of this location:
You're a block away from the bus terminal depot (If you opt to take the bus to or from Shangri-la/Dali/Remote towns, a short walk to the guest house).
Around 10 min walk to the entrance Oldtown and Zhongyi Market (Night Market with yummy food hawkers around 1800).
Number 18 bus to and from the Lijiang Railroad Station.
After you walk out of the guesthouse's compound, you're on the street with plenty of places to eat with the locals. I ate lunch and breakfast there and got a little bit of the local atmosphere instead of the touristy old town.
The room was very clean. There's a second indoor patio deck to hang out after a long day out.

Shangri-La
At the guest house, all units come with a desk. Featuring a private bathroom with a walk-in shower and slippers, units at the guest house also offer free WiFi, while selected rooms are equipped with a patio. At the guest house, every unit includes bed linen and towels. We had the most wonderful experience at Timeless Inn, and a huge part of it was thanks to the incredible hosts, Rose and her husband. From the moment we arrived, they treated us not just as guests, but like old friends. As it was our first time in Shangri-La, Rose’s tips and advice were incredibly helpful. She gave us detailed guidance on what to see and do around town, local restaurant recommendations, and even how to get to each place. Her insights really helped us make the most of our stay. She also helped us call for Didi rides and even woke up as early as 6am to accompany us outside and make sure everything went smoothly. Every morning, she prepared a delicious breakfast at our preferred time, always served with a smile and friendly conversation. She shared lovely stories about Shangri-La — what it was like in the old days versus now — which added so much depth to our experience. Her husband kindly picked us up from the airport and was equally warm and welcoming. He also offers transportation and guiding services to out of town attractions, which is a great option for anyone wanting a more convenient and insightful visit. On our last day, Rose recommended we go to Balagezhong instead of Shika Mountain — and it turned out to be the highlight of our trip! The inn itself has a cozy, homely feel. Rose even upgraded our room to the second floor with a beautiful view. Though the stairs are a bit steep, she insisted on helping us carry our large luggage. The location is excellent — right inside the Ancient Town, just steps from shops, restaurants, the Giant Prayer Wheel, and the central plaza where you can enjoy Tibetan dancing every evening. Being on the edge of the old town also made it super convenient for catching a Didi — only a 1–2 minute walk, so no need to haul luggage through narrow streets. We left Shangri-La with full hearts and unforgettable memories, thanks to Rose and her husband. If you're visiting Shangri-La, staying at Timeless Inn is a...

Quaint spot not too far away from the city centre (which is very busy and lots of traffic), great room views of the lake, clean, and the staff are very friendly! :) Very fast replies on WeChat for any queries
Gemmer hotel is in a great location. Our room is very clean and comfortable to stay. The owner is very enthusiastic and proactively helps with booking tickets and arranging tours. Highly recommend this guesthouse.
Merry is a very responsive host that tries to fulfil our travel requirements. She helped to arrange value for money airport transfers and local tours (we went fo a day tour Shangri-la and visit most tourist spots along the way). It is such an experience staying in a traditional village guesthouse which is next to Zhongyi market with more than 100 shops and stalls. Near to bus stop to places of interest. We took Bus #101 straight to Yulong Snow Mountain resort for RMB15 one-way and pay our own entrance fee, etc. Very very convenient..
it's one of the best hostels I've stayed in years of travel. I'd like to thank Pan Pan for her dedication to my needs. It's clean, comfortable bed, great location, what more could you ask for. The dorms are not overcrowded, only 3 beds in mine. I loved the background music it plays throughout the hostel. I highly recommend
Great feel at the hotel, like staying with a family. They are very welcoming and joye was a wonderful host. Loves a good chat in English. The rooms were traditional wooden decor rooms but with with very modern facilities! Perfectly located in the slightly quieter but only slightly 😆 part of the ancient town. Lots of shops and facilities around you, close to the South Gate around 7 minutes walk. Masjid nearby and enough halal options
Good value for money. This guesthouse is really a hidden gem, it's in a quiet lane of the old town. What makes me love gegewu is the support provided by the little staff. She helped book trips and was always available to provide any needed help.. One night when I came back she brought me a cake. in addition, it really warmed my heart. The room was comfortable and nicely decorated in a traditional style. I highly recommend this guest house.
Great location, inside the ancient city so walking distance to restaurants, temples, shops… The owners were great host, Rose helped us with everything: tours, taxis, breakfast. Amazing decoration to get a real feeling of Shangri La style.
