Hostels in Shaanxi, China

This hostel far exceeded my expectations! The front desk service was efficient and attentive, and the check-in process was simple. Any questions I had were answered promptly. The hygiene control was excellent; the washroom area was dry with no standing water, and there was no dust on the floors or in the corners. The overall environment was simple and clean, and the soundproofing was good, so it wasn't noisy at night. The common facilities were comprehensive, and the price was affordable. Staying here made my trip relaxing and worry-free.

Facilities: I've been staying at this Xi'an location since it opened until this year. The facilities might be a bit older compared to some of the newer Backpacker Ten-Year establishments. Cleanliness: The room attendants always clean the rooms thoroughly, but there are always some inconsiderate guests who litter, and the waste bins in the bathrooms are often full of paper. The shower area can also be slippery at times. Environment: The environment is excellent, no complaints there. From the inside out, the staff – including the front desk ladies and gentlemen and the cleaning aunties – keep everything very tidy. Service: The front desk staff are all quite good; at the very least, they always accommodate any requests I have.

1. The location is easy to find, with plenty of food options nearby, and ordering takeout is convenient. It's a very short walk from Exit A of Guangji Bridge! 2. On the first floor, they sell snacks and water, and there's free drinking water and hot water, which is quite nice. If you need something urgently, you can just buy it there. 3. There's an elevator to the upper floors, and a spacious and clean terrace on the top floor, which is convenient for eating. 4. Overall, it's very well-organized. I initially thought a six-person room would feel cramped, but it was actually fine. The bathroom is clean, and the shower pressure is excellent!! The bathrooms are cleaned daily. 5. My room shared a space and two bathrooms with a four-person room. This was a good setup; some hostels have 10-20 people sharing just two or three bathrooms, which can be a bit too tight. 6. The price is very reasonable; for this price, the value for money is absolutely amazing. The only, only minor drawback is that someone was playing loud music... But that's negligible!! My trip to Xi'an this time felt like everything was going wrong, but the hostel was truly awesome!!! It's fantastic!!!

Initially not as terrible as I had feared despite the low price. The layer of dust I saw when leaving my luggage early (in some corner because there was nobody to talk to) was gone when I checked in later. Place was easy to find (first image, take the elevator to the 5th floor and you're there) and in a very local area. Nice eateries and a small mobile phones and accessories mall turning left then right when leaving the building. Huimin Street and Drum and Bell Towers in walking distance. Free water dispenser and plenty of space in the hostel despite the lack of power outlets at the workspaces. But there comes the problem. The voltage at the power outlet seems elevated, my charger melted and almost caught fire although I used it everywhere else in Asia as well as for several weeks in China already. Other chargers I tried at this place also got extremely hot. They put me in a separate room to prevent another bad review on the potential production of spit, noise, dirt and sometimes even cigarette smoke in the dorms. One bathroom even had a seat toilet. Obviously plenty of smoking in the common area.

This hostel's location is absolutely fantastic! You can walk straight out and immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere of the Dongcangmen morning market, which is perfect for an authentic breakfast after a morning stroll. The hostel itself is clean, tidy, and tastefully decorated. The common areas are spotless and odor-free, and the staff are incredibly kind and accommodating, making for a truly comfortable stay. It's super convenient for getting around and exploring Xi'an. Staying here really makes your trip stress-free, and I highly recommend it!

Located on the second floor next to Luomashi, this place is similar to a university dorm. The sleeping area and washing area are separate, so washing up doesn't disturb those who are sleeping. The transportation is incredibly convenient, making it easy to get to all of Xi'an's attractions. Being right next to Luomashi also means shopping and dining are very accessible. I stayed for three nights and encountered five foreigners, so there's a good concentration of international guests. Each bed has an outlet, a privacy curtain, and a small lamp, which is very convenient. Soundproofing is decent; generally, it's pretty quiet and not too noisy. Next to the front desk, there are slippers for changing into, and you can store your outdoor shoes there, which prevents any odors in the dorm – a nice touch. The bathrooms have disposable toilet seat covers, toilet paper, shower gel, and shampoo, which is good. Improvements are definitely needed: The impractical trash cans in the women's restroom should be replaced immediately with foot-pedal bins, or the lids should be removed entirely so people can toss things in directly. The current bins are worse than having none at all, as even throwing a hair or a piece of tissue means contaminating my hands. Please install some shelves above the sinks for people to place their belongings, which would also make it easier for the cleaning staff to tidy up the counters. There's a lot of standing water in the showers; improving this would be better. The shower stalls are quite small, and larger individuals might find it hard to turn around, so be prepared for that.

This hotel is very good location and clean, I really enjoy taking a rest at this hotel, really appreciate that it's very near to Tiyuchang metro station (Exit D). There are many restaurants and convenient stores nearby the building that is very convenient. The hotel staff and the hotel owner also give a warm welcome to me, thank you so much. Everything in the hotel is clean and convenient. I will come to use service from this hotel again next time. And this hotel is near to travel spots (small wild goose, Xian museum), it's very good location hotel.

I tried matching the number listed in the confirmation email to the number on the front door of my room, but it didn't unlock, so I ended up having to call Lao Bang. I felt a bit uneasy and found it quite difficult for a beginner (I had a similar experience). Although they spoke English, I wondered if it was really necessary to call. I would have liked some mention of WeChat or something.

I wanted to tell you about this amazing hostel! The co-working space is divided into three sections, plus there's a dedicated study area facing a window, which gives it a really academic, cozy vibe. Everything else feels super comfortable too. The overall environment is incredibly quiet; hardly anyone talks loudly, just soft whispers. They play instrumental music throughout the place, and with the floor-to-ceiling windows and white curtains, you get plenty of sunlight without it being too harsh – it creates such a great atmosphere! The decor is also really nice; there's a whole wall covered in sticky notes, and I saw tons of messages left there. The shared bathrooms are spotless. They're all squat toilets, which are exceptionally clean. Inside, there's air freshener and odor spray, and the sinks have free cotton swabs, hair ties, and cotton pads. Yesterday, I even found out that laundry pods, liquid detergent, and powder detergent are all free to use!

The hosts were super helpful, even taking us by foot to their favourite restaurants and shops. The guests were social and the pool table was great fun, super cheap beers in the nearby shops. Only drawback was the beds are super uncomfortable, especially if your top bunk.
