Quality stay for solo traveller (men) , individual women(not suitable for women that like to comment).
For me , I have stay at university hostel before. I know hostel can’t be too perfect. This hostel in my opinion already 5 star because it manage to make the bed as clean as 5 star hotel , the area at shoe rack might not perfect but overall is the best when compared to 4 star hotel.
Malaysian who want to explore xinjiang, this is the place (Rm27 per night only , it is more than u needed)

2. Reading room with ******* theme was brilliantly decorated and exuded tranquility.
1. The host - interaction with this gentleman was engaging, and we enjoyed sharing interesting experiences.
Highly recommended!

Really nice hostel and the owner will do his best to help you. They proposed great tours that I recommend. You have shops and restaurants around and close to the railway station, which is nice because it is the picking up point of the tours.

This was my first time staying in a youth hostel, and I was surprised by how good the experience was. I originally planned to stay for only one day, but the cleanliness and environment were excellent, so I extended my stay for another day. Sometimes, though, it's a matter of luck. On the second night, a woman snored in the bunk above me. Luckily, I had earplugs.
1. Impressive details: When checking in, the hostess provided a protective cover for my ID card if I didn't have one. She also explained the location of the washing machine upon check-in.
2. Comfortable environment: For just over 70 yuan, during peak season, there's a large courtyard, and the cleanliness is excellent. I preferred to stay in the courtyard most of the time. I have to say that the cost of living in Yili is not that high. During peak season, hotels of the same price are much better than those in mainland China.
3. There's a cat: There's a cat in the courtyard. It's very affectionate, greets people, and is very pleasant to pet. It was half the reason I decided to stay an extra day. I plan to stay in every youth hostel with cats in the future. There was also a rather shy Jianzhou cat. It ran away the first time it saw me, but the second time it actually followed me and acted cute. It's a shame I didn't bring any cat food.
4. Extended stay discount: You can ask the staff for extended stays, which are usually better than online rates.
Cons: There's not much food nearby, so you'll need to order takeout or walk a bit further, and the options are quite limited. Avoid taking taxis during rush hour, as the traffic is so bad it's unbearable throughout Yining. Use taxi apps to hail taxis, as they're hard to find in the deep alleys.
Also, I hope you don't run into any group of more than two people, as groups of three will start chattering, which can be a bit unfriendly to those who are already asleep. But that's how youth hostels are, and there's nothing you can do about it.
Overall, the youth hostel is excellent; the environment is comfortable, clean, and hygienic, and the cleaning is done promptly. My next stop is Kashgar, and I'm planning to stay in Gumaoning again.

Environment: Very good, it is a small single-family courtyard, very beautiful. But there is a tile loose on the stairs on the second floor, and it feels like it will fall every time you step on it.
Xinjiang is dark late, and it is basically quiet next to 12 o'clock. It is set for two nights. It is quiet at about 12 o'clock on the first night. The second night is full of people. Someone has been in and out of the room. It is very noisy, and there is a chat in the yard. Roommate went downstairs to chat about two o'clock in the morning. She didn't bring the room. Card, knock on the door to open... This door in the ten-person room is locked up, so often there are locks without a room card, but when it is closed, 🛏️ is shaking ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah Is there a round in each room? I don’t know. When I checked in, it was more than seven o’clock in the evening, but there were two quilts on the bed, and the sheets and quilts were not removed. The next day, a girl checked out very early but the lights were not turned off. When I came back in the afternoon, it was still not turned off... and another one. I don't understand very well. On the second night, there was a grandmother who looked very old or stayed in the upper bunk... Is this really not dangerous? I woke up and watched the video outside the house...

Opened in 2023, the Junkushtai Origin Wooden House Youth Hostel is a great accommodation choice in Tekes.

This is my second time staying in a strange little cottage. This year, a new wooden house was built as a public area, with large glass windows and a panoramic view! There are two shower rooms for comfortable bathing, and the bath water is very large! And the shower room is quite spacious, and there is no need for a dry toilet. With the view, this is so happy! ! There is a wooden plank road from the roadside to her house, so you don’t have to worry about stepping on mud~. The wooden house has good thermal insulation and it is not cold at night. There is an electric blanket, so you don’t have to worry about it. It’s really comfortable to open the door to the grassland. There are many grasslands near her house to visit, and there are all kinds of unknown small flowers, which are very beautiful! The overall scenery is very good and cost-effective!

I assume this is one top accommodation for foreign guests coming to Yining. I appreciated the host's assistance very much. Thank to them, my trip was done well.
Room is nice, good location which is near many food shop and on walking distance to Liuxing street as well as Ili passenger terminal for your daytour. And one bonus, it's quite near the airport that costs you less but more convenient!
I don't have particularly high expectations for youth hostels. The location is in Liuxing Street, the surrounding area is quite quiet, and it is close to places to eat. The room is clean. The most uncomfortable thing is that there is no air conditioning. It is too hot in the middle of the night.

Hostel incroyable, placé en plein centre de Tekes cette hostel est l’une des seules options mais tant mieux car c’est la meilleur. Vous avez le droit a un accueil par de très gentilles dames. J’ai eu le droit à une chambre dortoir pour moi tout seul. Les endroits communs sont incroyables et vous avez des endroits pour travailler, jouer au jeux videos, une salle de sport. Le petit déjeuner est incroyable. J’essaye de trouver un point négatif mais je ne trouve pas, peut être le prix qui reste un peu élever pour la Chine, mais c’est du au faible nombre d’hotel en ville. Quand je reviendrai à Tekes je dormirai ici encore.

A more than satisfactory accommodation experience. The service is warm and thoughtful, and the environment is clean. The price is not high, but it is specially considered for the tenants. It will be my first choice next time I go to Zhaosu.
Xiao Liu at the front desk enthusiastically introduced various travel experiences in Zhaosu. And suggested that I go to Xiata the next day. He also said that if I decided to stay in the scenic area for a day, the bed could be reserved for me and did not need to be put away.
The next day I decided to stay in Xiata for a few more days. The boss was very considerate and helped me pack up my scattered luggage and packed them into small plastic bags according to categories. Passports, cash, computers, etc. were all delivered to Xiata by the driver I arranged. This was the first time I asked a stranger to send me a valuable item, and the experience was very good.

AAnonymous UserThe small courtyard environment is very good, there are tent stools, the decoration is also very careful, very good, personal photos will not be put! The room is clean and air-conditioned, the proprietress is very enthusiastic, has recommended it to friends
QquitequickOne of my favorite homestays on this trip. The actual condition is much better than the picture, very new and clean. The boss and his family are very talkative, and there is no commercialization at all, which makes people feel very comfortable. It is very close to the Nalati Grassland Scenic Area. I go to the scenic area by myself and go back to the hotel to rest when I am tired from playing, and then enter the scenic area. It is very convenient 👍🏻 I will definitely not hesitate to choose this place in the future, it is so comfortable👍🏻
KKuguatengxiadedapingguoVery clean. The bedding is like that of a hotel. Very comfortable. They also provide large bath towels and disposable toiletries. Although it is a shared bathroom, shampoo, shower gel and conditioner are all available. The sound insulation is very good. This is the best youth hostel I have stayed in.

GGuest UserThe single room was remodeled from the balcony, but although the sparrow is small and complete, the whole is very good, it is very cheap during the Gurbang Festival. There should be some in the public bathroom, the washing machine is easy to use, the overall praise
GGuest UserI arrived on the road in the middle of the night. The price here is much better than the hotels or campsites near the scenic area. Although the yurts are also cheap, the lack of independent bathrooms is really terrible. The facilities here are complete. It can be seen that the boss is running the business with intention. The room was beautifully tidied and we were upgraded to a room type. It was very satisfying to have a comfortable bath and rest for the night.
GGuest UserThe stay experience is very satisfactory, there is a small courtyard, parking, and charging piles, it is really convenient. Sleeping at night is very quiet. Xinjiang night 🌃 is really cool, it is very comfortable without air conditioning, the bed is clean and hygienic, the bath water is also very large, the boss service is super good and thoughtful, the water, disposable toilet pads are all prepared, what to give. [Strong] [Strong] [Strong] There is a waterfall nearby, the park 🏞, and there are movies. It is said that there is a bonfire party every weekend. It is also very convenient to eat nearby. It is a good town of the Corps. Economical and affordable! Highly recommended!
GGuest UserRooms are arranged on the 1st floor and there is no elevator in the accommodation area
The lobby of the housekeeping department is very clean, and I also see the steam disinfection mop. The whole feeling is pretty good, but there are restaurants and flies at the entrance of the housing department...
The famous hotel has a yurt with a barbecue and a little food... It belongs to the farmhouse... There is no restaurant around you need to drive out or eat in the restaurant.
The boss said that the barbecue festival will be held recently, and the homestay is also in the dressing. I am still looking forward to it. I just don’t know what discounts are available? The overall cost of the restaurant is still not low, but if there is a barbecue festival, it still feels quite a feeling.
GGuest UserFacilities: The facilities are relatively complete, it can be seen that this store is newly renovated.
Hygienic: very, very clean, I have lived in the same price store, their home is really super clean.
Environment: The surrounding places to eat are very good, hot pot, skewers are all available, very convenient
Service: The proprietress is kind and very enthusiastic. The old soup next door to their house tastes hot pot. It is really super authentic.
