Loved the helpful staff and great breakfasts. The common room was very comfortable. Odors from plumbing and brown water early in the am were a nuisance.

a place very cozy ,clean and super convent,worthy
This is a place for solo travelers who only need a clean, convenient, safe place to sleep overnight. The location is very close to every point of interests in Xian City. The front desk people are very helpful and knowledgeable about travel issues. There are clean shower rooms, bathrooms and hallway and elevator. There are quiet and private places to sit and study . Wifi is stable. the rooms are large enough to house 6 to 7 people without too packed feelings. Closets are clean and big enough for your belongs, with locks , as well . I stayed here for 8 days and I booked from the States with good price. I went out each day for my own tour and came back to my own place with each day different roommates. These roommates are nice ,decent people . Remember : What I booked is a dormitory type of room and we must follow the quiet rules. If you are not comfortable with roommate snoring at night, be sure to bring your own earplug , which you can get in CVS. When I left I suggested the host to provide earplugs to travelers but I am not sure they can get this thing in China. The slipper under bed is plastic and everybody used. I you mind this, please bring your own slipper, hotel-type slipper. The bedding are clean , though. I encountered mosquito one night because the screen was open. ( I stayed here in October) I asked for mosquito light and it did not happen again . Overall , This is a place very cozy ,clean and super convenient .

It became too hot at night to the point where I would wake up in a sweat. However, the staff were lovely and it was a very cool and hip place to go. Overall I really enjoyed it and would stay again if I came back. I would probably get a different room though to avoid the heat coming to the top bunk.

A great hostel.
We really enjoyed our stay at such an unusual property to find on Hotels.com. It is a youth hostel & charges youth hostel prices, but it was fantastic. The young staff spoke good English and were friendly, helpful and enthusiastic. Our room, although having no external window, was fine with excellent air conditioning. Everything was in good working order, breakfast was available until lunchtime & offered tremendous variety. The area was vibrant with restaurants, street food & convenience stores all around, in the heart of the walled city. We would love to stay here again.

This hotel has a very convenient location, bed sheets feels fresh and clean, but bathroom smells a bit. Staff are not friendly. All over it's worth the money you payed

Mixed Review - poor cleanliness, good location
Bathroom cleanliness was definitely below acceptable standards (and I'm not a stickler). There were several strands of hair on the bathroom floor and, to my horror, I found a cigarette butt on the bathroom floor as well. There's no way to prevent water from the shower from going all over the bathroom floor. Two pairs of shower slippers are provided but they were both clearly used so I didn't wear them. On a less important note, the photos on CheapTickets make the facilities look much better than they actually are. In person, the hostel shows a great deal of wear and tear.

Bad Staff service but good location
Completely unhelpful staff. They didn't even organise a cab for us to get to the train station. China is a very hostile place for tourists as hardly anyone speaks English, so you rely on your hotel a lot. The front desk guys in this hotel just didn't understand that! I will recommend this hotel only for the location and nothing else. They didn't even allow us an extra half hour as a late check out. they wanted us out at 12 sharp or that there will be a half day charge!

Good place in Xi'An
We stayed there for 3 nights and it was nice. The staff have a good English and gave us helpful information about the city, like places to visit or places to eat. The room was comfortable and warm. The bar downstairs is really nice, with a good atmosphere.

駅からすぐ近くのホステル。フロントスタッフは人によって英語が話せたり話せなかったりという感じ。真夜中のチェックアウトでしたが、感じよく対応してもらえました。 時間によっては空港の送迎サービスがあるとのこと。 私は知らなかったので利用できず。 もっとアピールしてほしかった。

日本人のレビューがないため、書いておきます。私は安い宿に泊まり歩いてるバックパッカーで、今回は西安観光と風邪の療養のため数日間ドミトリーで宿泊しました。 このホテルは地下鉄から徒歩一分の距離、そして、西安の街の中心部ということもあり、とても観光がしやすい立地でした。コンビニや飲食店もたくさんありました。 スタッフは英語を話すことができるので、安心です。 また、中国語と英語でたくさんの案内を置いているので、英語が苦手な方もそれを見て、理解することができます。 ホテルの内装や雰囲気はとても良く、中国で泊まったホテルの中でも最も好きかもしれません。 このホテルは有料のコインランドリーがあり、また、乾かす場所もあります。部屋はカードロック式で部屋の中に鍵付きのロッカーも設置されていますので、安心でした。 泊まっている方の9割は中国人で欧米人が数名、日本人は自分のみでした。 良いホテルなので、西安に来た日本人の方に是非利用していただけたら、と思います。
