Yining City Hotels with Kitchens

"It's 2 AM, and I can't sleep after writing this review in the courtyard, so I just got up and sat here. The night in Liuxing Street is so quiet, with only occasional dog barks and distant lights. The moon hangs above the apple tree. I've stayed at this hostel for three days and will be leaving tomorrow. There are some things I want to write down before I forget. First, let's talk about hygiene. I have a peculiar habit: the first thing I do when entering a room is to feel the tabletop and windowsill. And truly, it was spotless. The floor is wood-grain tile, and walking barefoot on it felt perfectly clean. The bedding was freshly changed and smelled warm, like it had been sun-dried. There wasn't a single hair on the public restroom floor, and the trash cans weren't emptied only when overflowing. What touched me most was that the cups in the wash area were placed upside down in a sterilizer cabinet, for guests to use. Yes, a sterilizer cabinet. Location: It's in an alley in Liuxing Street, but very easy to find. Turn right out of the door, and a small alley leads directly to the main street. To the left is an old residential area, perfect for aimless wandering. It's about seven or eight minutes' walk to the Alexander Accordion Museum and also to the famous ice cream shop. If you, like me, enjoy walking and exploring small alleys, this place is a paradise. There are three bus stops nearby, making it convenient to go to Kaxgar and Hanren Street. Service: The front desk staff was a girl with a ponytail, and her voice was soft. It was drizzling when I arrived on the first day, and she handed me a dry towel to wipe my hair. When I came back late at night, I found a message on the small blackboard at the entrance: 'There's yogurt in the fridge, help yourself.' I thought it was for a fee, but when I asked the next day, she smiled and said, 'It's free, we worry you might get overheated in this weather.' When I left, I forgot my power bank, and she chased me down two alleys. Facilities: The beds are incredibly stable; the bunk beds don't wobble. Each bunk has a curtain, a light, two power outlets, and a small shelf, perfect for a phone and glasses. The common area has a water dispenser (with both hot and cold water), a microwave, a refrigerator, and a toaster. There's also a washing machine that can be used by scanning a QR code. The most pleasant surprise was a small bookshelf with not many books, but a few picture books about Ali, which made me want to visit Mount Kailash as I flipped through them. Atmosphere: Unlike some hostels that deliberately force social interaction, the atmosphere here is very natural. In the evening, someone played the Dombra in the courtyard, while others just listened quietly. There was an older gentleman who had just returned from a pilgrimage, his feet still swollen, sitting on the steps drinking sweet tea, and no one disturbed him. Occasionally, people would strike up a conversation, also in soft voices. I'm sitting in the courtyard now, and the evening breeze is a little cool. The moon is bright, and I can see the shadows of the clouds. I'll probably feel a bit reluctant to leave tomorrow. But it's okay; I know I'll be back. The night of Liuxing Street, the dream of Mount Kailash, and the gentleness of this little courtyard all remind me why I'm always on the road."

"The inn is next to the main street, the location is very good, quiet in the bustling city, and you won't feel noisy. The owner came out to the tourist center to help with the luggage. After checking out, he also checked the missing items and contacted us to go back and pick them up. The environment is very good, and you can sit in the public area to eat and chat at night. The bathroom is big enough, but the room is a little small, and the suitcase is a little bit small. Overall, I am very satisfied."

"I score 6 out of 5. The room was beautifully decorated and clean, and my parents were very satisfied. Quiet, good for sleep. I heard that the rooftop can also see the Tianshan Mountain on both sides of Yining. I arrived late at night and was unwell, because it was the old town. I couldn't get a taxi for half an hour on the side of the road. I discussed with the landlord and drove us to the doctor and buy medicine. I was very intimate to help us find a shop for porridge. The next morning, I also sent the plane. Thank you for saving my life, I hope I have a chance to come again hahaha 😉"

"This homestay really gave me a big surprise! From the moment I entered the door, I could feel the boss's intentions~ The room was cleaned spotlessly, the layout was warm and stylish, and the details were decorated with ingenuity. The bedding is soft and comfortable, the bathroom is very clean, and the quality of toiletries is also very good. The most touching thing is the warm service of the boss, and the surrounding authentic food and play routes are intimately recommended. There is also a small yard outside to sit and rest, and I feel that the whole person is relaxed. You can also cook here, the location is very convenient, the bus stop is out, and the attractions are very close. This stay experience is perfect, I will choose here next time, I highly recommend it to all friends who come to travel!"

"Just opened the door and was pleasantly surprised! The wallpaper is fresh and elegant, the bedding is bright white, the corners are neatly laid, there is no wrinkle, and it feels soft and clean. There is no dust on the table and window sill, and even the bottom of the chair is refreshing. You don't have to clean up yourself when you live in, you can just rest on the bed. The furniture is scattered, the space is bright and warm, and it feels like returning to your carefully arranged small home. The sense of security and comfort is full! If you can stay here for a few more days, accompanied by the green and quiet outside the window, you can definitely sleep well, super suitable for people who want to escape the hustle and bustle and enjoy a pleasant holiday!"

"The biggest surprise of my trip to Yining was Fanhuameisu! The overall experience far exceeded my expectations, and I have to give it a full five stars ✨ The guesthouse's design is incredibly tasteful. The pure white architecture combined with carved corridors creates beautiful light and shadow, making every photo opportunity perfect. The courtyard is meticulously maintained with lush greenery everywhere; sitting there enjoying afternoon tea was so relaxing. The rooftop offers an unbeatable view – watching the sunset paint the sky golden in the evening, and being able to see the Milky Way at night away from light pollution, truly creates an amazing ambiance. The room was clean and tidy, the bedding was comfortable, and the bathroom had a great wet/dry separation. The room type I stayed in even had a bathtub, and soaking in it with sunlight streaming in and blue skies and white clouds outside the window was incredibly comfortable. The owner and housekeeper were very welcoming and helpful, answering all my questions and recommending local delicacies. The experience was absolutely perfect!"

"The environment here is super nice! The owners are also lovely people. The male owner even helped me with my luggage 💼. The room was clean and warm. I originally planned to stay here again after coming back from Kuldun, but unfortunately, it was fully booked! Will have to wait until next time!"

"The boss warmly received, the service was actively cooperated, and the fruit was presented, which made people feel as warm as home. The room is about 20 square meters, the large windows are very light, and two people are completely enough. The facilities in the room are very new, the bedding is very clean, and the mattress is moderately hard and soft. The price is moderate, the most satisfying stay experience along the way by car! highly recommended"

"The suite we booked was on one floor, with three bedrooms and a very large living room, which was perfect for family trips. The owner was warm and friendly. We inquired in advance about parking before we drove, and he helped us reserve a parking space. He even picked us up from the intersection late at night and brought us local ice cream. I really liked the relaxing little courtyard."
