Nice stay and friendly staff
The staff is very helpful and the location is great
A 5-7mins walk from Xi men Ding
It was very nice of the staff to arrange 4 bedroom for us to ease me moving around but will be great to have a bigger locker in the room. The toilet will be nice to have a curtain so the toilet wont be wet after shower.
The room is clean but it doesn't have lift so is more for a bag-packers stay
But in general, I enjoyed the stay

Amazing, backpackers hostel was so clean. It was my first time to try a hostel and because of backpackers hostel I now have a positive view of hostels. It was a breeze when checking out and checking in.

Budget friendly hostel
We had a great experience during our stay last march. The room was clean. The staff was very accomodating and friendly. I enjoyed the unlimited coffee and tea. The lounge was cool and the wifi access is great. The one thing I was not happy about was the time for check in was very late for 3pm because I was expecting that we can go to our room early to rest because it was stated on our printed itinerary from expedia that 7am is the earliest check in.

The staff at the hotel are all very friendly and helpful. The hotel does not have an elevator hence it was a little troublesome for a family with kids.

Decent stay
The room is tiny, limited space for luggage, expected for a hostel stay. Overall room and in-room toilet are clean. Location is good, near Ximending

Good location
Overall, good for value. But the room size is very small, with mouldy smell. The staff then brought us an air dehumidifier, which helps a little.
