More like a hotel than a hostel. The atmosphere is rather indifferent and nowhere near that of a good hostel. Not really a place for solo travellers. But the facilities are excellent. However, I wasn't expected when I arrived. The hostel hadn't made any reservations for me although I had had my bookings confirmed in mails from Hostelworld. You can get a really good breakfast for 30 yuan.

The one girl I dealt with at reception was very helpful and kind. The other guy wasn't as friendly but did his job okay. The location is pretty good and for the price you pay it's definitely worth staying here. I loved how clean the room was. Facilities were good too. Kettle and tv in a hostel room isn't what I'm used to , I was pleasantly surprised.

There's not much atmosphere or community here, but it is a decent place to spend a few nights. The receptionist stuffed up my booking, which was great, because instead of a dorm I ended up in a private room!!! It's clean and tidy, and only a short walk to the sights of Beijing!

I only needed to stay for the night before I flew out back to my country the following day, but the staff were friendly and helpful in getting a taxi for me and storing my luggage. My room was clean and sufficient, with its own bathroom and toiletries supplied by the hostel. Internet only worked in the lobby, and I didn't use any of the dining or laundry facilities, but overall, it was a nice place to rest my head before a long journey.

The facilites and location are good, but it is a business hotel so lacks character and atmosphere. The main common area is the foyer, so there is little socialising with other travellers unless they are your roommates. The staff are ok, english levels vary, one guy was very helpful, another not so much and the girl I encountered wasn't helpful at all. It's a perfectly serviceable hostel but I won't be going back there if I return to Beijing.

Great hostel! It was a little bit boring but everything else was great. The location is perfect, not far from Dengshikou station, Wangfujing shopping street and Forbidden city. Breakfast was good and the room was very clean. The staff isn't exactly the friendliest I've met but I guess it's the language barrier, they were still helpful and nice. I'd definitely recommend this place!

Excellent location right next to square and more like a hotel than a hostel. Staff were quite helpful and the rooms were cosy and tidy. at 35Rmb a night, is a bargain in a dorm room. rooms cleaned daily ect..
