Bait Ward Siwa House

Believe me, this isn’t just an ordinary guesthouse — it truly feels like a warm and welcoming home that puts your body and mind completely at ease. The owner is incredibly kind and caring. On my second day, when I had some stomach discomfort, she specially prepared local ginger tea for me and kept checking in to see how I was doing, asking if I needed any help. Her thoughtfulness really touched my heart. Even more considerate, she offered me a free room upgrade to make my stay more comfortable. Whenever I had a question or needed assistance, she was always ready to help, which made me feel so safe and cared for. She’s not only kind but also an interesting and warm-hearted person with many stories to share — chatting with her was such a pleasure. The guesthouse itself is a clean, beautifully maintained local-style home with a unique cave-like architecture. What’s even more fascinating is that parts of the building were constructed using materials from the ancient city of Shali, which dates back over a thousand years — truly a special experience! The location is also very convenient — just a 5 to 10-minute walk from the town center and Shali Ancient City. One thing to note: the location pin on online maps isn’t entirely accurate, so it’s best to contact the guesthouse beforehand or ask locals for directions upon arrival.
