6/10
The best things about the hostel are its location in a Hutong neighbourhood and its very low price. It's close too Qianmen Metro station and Tiananmen Square. Staying in this old part of Beijing lets you experience a part of lively old Beijing that is vanishing fast. The people are friendly and one always feels safe.
Rooms are very basic and the standard of cleanliness is at the lower end of the scale. The air conditioning worked well, which is important during the hot summer months.
Staff was very friendly but did not speak English. Communication was a bit of a challenge.
The building is an old traditional Hutong courtyard with a colourful history.
We stayed for two weeks and in the end we were actually sad to leave.
