"Jim’s is probably the best-value accommodation in Dali and is located just outside the South Gate, within easy walking distance of the cafés and bars."
"Likeable Jim has been a Dali fixture for decades, and this colourful modern take on a traditional Tibetan home .. is a quiet, spacious option well geared to travellers’ needs."
"The rooms here are some of the most distinctive in Dali, styled with Tibetan motifs and packed with antique Chinese-style furniture (even if the bathrooms are looking their age now)" Full review
