An ok hostel! The staff were friendly and so were the other guests (mainly Chinese). Not the easiest place to find, there were no lockers in the dorms and they didn't rent towells. Also the cleaners were pretty keen to get in and change my bed even though i still had over an hour till check out! but then there aren't really many alternatives in Wuhan!

The hostel was a very pleasant surprise in Wuhan. I especially enjoyed the ambiance and decor of the common area. The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming, as was the staff. Special kudos to Sunshine and Cabbage for their hospitality. I highly recommend staying here over any hotel.

The atmosphere is good but the house is a little old. The facilities is not so good and no locker in the doms. The worst thing is no wifi cover even on the 2nd floor.

This place is okay for a couple of nights. There are no lockers in the rooms, and the bathroom situation is 'interesting' to say the least, but at least it had character! If you arrive at Wuchang Railway station, take the 511 as the directions say, but don't waste time trying to find a taxi - the bus will have just driven past the hostel, so walk back in the direction the bus came from, cross the road at the 1st pedestrian overpass, and look for the sign to your left! 4 mins max!

I like the place, very warm and they treated you as their family members.

This was fine for an overnight stay, but not somewhere I'd want to spend a long time. There was a lack of Western style toilets, and the building was quite cold. However, the staff were helpful and the common area by reception was pleasant.

There is no heating in the downstairs dorms, and the windows don't shut properly. In Winter it is around 0C at night, so it was freezing. At least add an oil heater or something. There are no lockers in the dorms, so valuables must be left at reception. The worst part about the hostel was the toilet facilities. Guest are told to throw used toilet paper in the bin rather than flush down the toilet. The bins are not even cleared out every day, so the toilets stink. Cafe and food is good

This hostel was located in a good place in Wuhan, and had a lot of character and a good "hostel feel" to its design and artwork and decorations. The staff were very helpful, and they had a nice bar and restaurant inside. Good internet access. Nice beds, secure rooms, good bathrooms. Solid performance in all areas. Would definitely stay there next time I am in Wuhan.
