The hotel is for backpackers who usually stay at Hostel or 1 or 2 star hotels. This is not a hotel for business travelers - no desk. Plumbing issues - clogged drain in the sink. The room had a terrible odor - like there was some type of mold/flooding. The temperature control is limited to 22c. Toilet seats are strange. The common area is not really nice - also had a strange smell, and plastic bags of stuff strawn about behind the desk. The area is right in the middle of a busy market /shopping are - and it could be fun for a young person / backpacker - but there is no sound insulation. Literally the hotel is 2 floors above a main cobble stone road. The staff is very nice, however, I feel that for the price that is adjusted for Kunming's pricing, this hotel was over priced. Do not let the photos charm you, and the reviews are also suspect.
All rooms are non air conditioned due to preservation status .
Rooms are beside main road and due to windows needing to be open with no air con , makes it almost impossible to sleep with the noise coming over outside as it is low
Location wise faultless as it is in the middle of the pedestrian shopping area with food choices aplenty and shopping areas all within walking distance
