We just went to the great wall this afternoon and saw the acrobatic show this evening. We had a good time and things were easy. The place has a good location, fair beds, ok prices and a nice area for travelers to meet. I'd stay here again. Dumplings are good. Wifi is strong enough.

This hostel isn't really updated but the bathrooms are very clean and the bed rooms are spacious for a city hostel. I really enjoyed the huge bar/lounge area on the main floor. The food provided is cheap and made for hungry western people. Free dumlings parties on Friday. Good place to meet other backpackers and to enjoy Chaoyang disrict if... More

Everything you can expect from an hostel. Easy to get information and to book reliable tour. The trip to the Great Wall was excellent, and without stop to tourist hassle :) Near Yanshao (Clothes) Market. Negative: Quite far from the Subway (20 min), but once you are use to the bus, it is ok. Great hostel but location is not... More

We arrived at Beijing at the end of January 2012 for a stay of 8 days at this hostel. It was three of us travelling and although we usually do not venture usually with hostel accommodations we decided to do so, because we wanted to spend more money on attractions and shopping rather than on a hotel. Yes, we look... More

I moved from the great Sunrise Youth Hostel near Tian An men to stay with my friend in Sanlintun. My first impression of the staff was quiet cold but everyone can be tired and I know some chinese people are not doing their job with a lot of enthusiasm and are lazy to inform people well at the reception. They... More

Had a very rough time at this place on a number of topics: First I had some trouble finding the place. I called up to figure out where the hostel was as it is semi hidden from the street. I was on foot but the staff kept asking to talk to my taxi driver despite the fact that I was... More

After staying in many hostels in many cities in China, I can say that this hostel is by far my favorite. I had a great time with the staff, they are all friendly and welcoming. The location is great, close to bar street where many Western and Chinese restaurants are located. The locally priced beers are cheaper than I've seen... More
