A friend and I enjoyed the convenience of breakfast and other food, walking distance to some sights, easy access to subway, other friendly and pleasant gusets and generally capable staff. We wanted a hostel through which we could arrange airport pickup and drop-off and that was available at Kelly's. We enjoyed being in a Hutong neighbourhood in a clean and well-designed hostel.A friend and I enjoyed the convenience of breakfast and other food, walking distance to some sights, easy access to subway, other friendly and pleasant gusets and generally capable staff.

This Courtyard is a hidden gem. It is pretty quiet for being in the middle of Beijing. The room was a little small, but it didn't bother us much since it was clean and cozy. The staff was exceptionally friendly, accommodating and helpful. Plus, Jane and Sandy speak very excellent English. We would definitely recommend a stay at this quaint hotel.This Courtyard is a hidden gem. It is pretty quiet for being in the middle of Beijing.

We had a wonderful experience staying at the Kelly\'s. We especially like the Siheyan setting. Hostel needs to keep up with regular maintenance and repairs which are normaly required in a falicity like Kelly\'s Courtyard. In the unit we stayed in, the faucelt makes a strange noise apparently due to irregular water pressure in the piping system. They muct have this problem for a while but did not take action to correct it.We had a wonderful experience staying at the Kelly\'s. We especially like the Siheyan setting.

Very nice staff is always trying to help you! A big advantage is, they are speaking English very well! Hostel is built up very lovingly. You are living right in the Hutongs and it´s still easy to come around! Nice breakfast and good coffee:) We would come back!!!Very nice staff is always trying to help you!

A delightful Hostel with comfortable rooms, pleasant communal areas and very helpful staff. I would recommend this Hostel to those looking for a quiet sanctuary in the hustle and bustle of Beijing.A delightful Hostel with comfortable rooms, pleasant communal areas and very helpful staff.

Courtyard was tastefully done up. Love the furniture which look good and are functional. Rooms are not big but each inch of space is cleverly utilized. Being set in a hutong is a plus point as we get to see snippets of real loves of beijingers and not surrounded by touristy & overpriced shops & restaurants. It is also very near to 2 stations on the 4th line of the city subway. Staff are friendly and warm, special thanks to Sandy who initiate to give inCourtyard was tastefully done up.

Very nice hostel because of the rooms, the courtyard and the staff. Convenient that it's close to subway station Xisi (line 4) and busses e.g. direct to the Summer Palace.Very nice hostel because of the rooms, the courtyard and the staff.

This hotel is incredible. The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, honest, and fluent in English. The rooms are elegant and the courtyard has a really relaxing atmosphere. The rooftop is perfect for relaxing after a long day of walking around.This hotel is incredible. The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, honest, and fluent in English.

The hostel is very quaintly decorated and the staff are great! The biggest problem was that taxis do not like to take guests to that part of Beijing and don\'t like to pick people up from there, so it was very frustrating. Otherwise, the hostel was very nice.The hostel is very quaintly decorated and the staff are great!
