It was a last minute decision to go to Shaxi, but our one night in this guesthouse was the best place we stayed during our 2 weeks in China. When we first arrived and weren't sure which direction it was (actually very easy in the small town), he came and met us where we were down the street. They served us a pot of hot tea and peanuts after checking in and even when we were just hanging out in the lounging area. The room and the hotel were so beautiful, clean, and quiet. Breakfast were nice spread of coffee, toast, French toast, jam, egg, fresh fruit, and yogurt. They also organized a more direct bus out of town for us.
