I stayed more than a week in the dorm rooms. Overall great experience in comparison to other hostels in China. Nice location, lots of chinese and foreign food options around, and Jing'an Temple is one of the "city centers". Beds were ok, with good blankets and good AC, and the lockers in the rooms are very big. Internet was very reliable and fast
... 别人怎么说 » most of the time (no wifi in the rooms though). They have nice common rooms and an awesome roof terrace, which was great at this time of the year when -
Excellent English speaking staff! I was in China for 3 months and heard more English at this hostel then some of the expensive hotels I was in.
Everyone was extremely friendly, great for college-aged people if you want to make friends.
Staff is willing to suggest places to go and give you directions to get there.
There's also delicious western breakfast choices on the rooftop bar from 8am - 12 pm.
Extremely safe area. -
The hostel sent us a detailed map of how to get there when they sent the e mail confirmation of our booking. We went from the plane from Canada onto the excellent metro to our stop. Very neat location in a houtong (old alley way) with lots of local colour. It is right in the heart of the city and the staff were great.
As seniors we had rented a comfortable room with a private bath which was very satisfactory for us.
