The hostel is comfortable with its big rooms and big wardarobes, big and clean showers and toilet, microwave, hot water, clean sheets. The only problem is that, due to long stay accommodations, is difficult for chamber maids to clean the floor and the forniture properly

Stayed 5 nights at Blue Mountain. Good check in. OK English. Family room OK. Clean. Wifi worked well. Showers etc good. Hongqaio is a little away from the city but an easy subway ride on line 2. The area is fine. Safe. When leacving the subway via exit 2, turn right, go over the small canal bridge and under the over-bridge, turn left down HaMi and its about 300m on the right.i would stay there again. Good chinese restaurant next door. Laundry facilities good.

They should clean the rooms immediately after someone checks out and not wait until the next person checks in. The bathroom should have been fixed. We were left to use the public hallway one for five days. Not horrible, but we shouldnt have to if we are supposed to have a working one. The atmosphere however, was incredible. It made staying there worth it! The lounge is laidback and friendly. You are encouraged to draw on the walls and leave your mark.

Clean, quiet hostel near one of the metro stations. Good connection with the airport, slightly further from the city center. Staff is friendly and helpful. Overall impression is ok, but common area could be better and more inviting.

Hotel is five minute walk from a metro stop. Hotel is kind a far from the city where you would most likely be at late night. Since metro stops at 10.30, you will have to take cab back which is expensive at night. Staff was nice and rooms were clean. Typical hostel.

Overall, I found the hostel very pleasant-- an excellent value for the rate. Directions were good, as was the overall location. While I thought it could have been a bit cleaner, I did not find it unpleasant at all. The staff were VERY helpful/welcoming & the amenities offered were awesome. I'd definitely recommend this hostel

Staff is very friendly and helpful. I stayed in the double bedroom with shared bathroom: no windows and a bit dirty and smelly. However, for the price, it is ok. Double bed was ok and the room had a TV and air con. Also location is quite convenient: tube is 5min away and there are many shops, restaurants, massage places around. It is 20min by cap to Hongqiao airport, very cheap fare c.25RMB.

It's a nice place to stay. The common area was very small and cold but they have free wi-fi in the room as well as in the lounge. Beds were conmfy enough, sheets were clean and they even provided towels. Communal bathrooms and showers were always cleaned and had sit down toilets and toilet paper. The cooking facility was minimal with just a microwave and a small fridge, no sink, tables, or cooking utilities. Staff speaks English and have good sightseeing information.

Room was clean and bed was comfortable. Staff spoke English and were helpful. Not a social place but a decent place to stay for a good price. Easy to find and close to the metro station.

Stayed here for 3 nights in December. It was a great value. Our room was small and had no windows but if you\'re only sleeping in here, it\'s fine. Internet worked well enough, it is very close to the Metro and a 30 minute walk to Fu Xing Park. I\'d stay here again.

We were staying in a double room which was very clean and spacious. The lobby is huge all made out of the wood with free pool table. The staff is friendly and you can see that they do really care about their hostel and about your opinions and needs.
