Five Elements Hostel

Five Elements Hostel

I really like 5 Elements, but there were a few problems that while easily fixed might make your stay not as comfortable if you plan to stay more than a night or two. First, the good things - the location is right next to the Jade Roo/Jade Emu guesthouses outside the city walls and next to the Cangshan mountain range. ... more

Dali Hump

Really a nice place to stay and genuinly recommended. The rooms look new, are very spacious and have little balconies. I struggled to find the place as it is on a 'pedestrian' river street, right at the top where there is almost no more activity. Once I found it, it was easy to navigate from there and the place is actually quite central. ... more
