Luojia Youth Hostel

The location is good near Yellow Crane tower, easy to go around the city No toilet paper, no towels The staffs is nice not very great at English, I ask for slippers and she ask to see my passport 😅

I love staying in this hostel because it is near the Yellow Crane Tower and Simenkou. Pengliuyang subway station is only a nine-minute walk and just below the hostel are shops selling affordable items. My favorite are the clothing shops. There is a Watsons nearby and some stands selling refreshments. I stayed in an eight-bed dorm room and it was clean and organized. When you get to your space, bed sheet, pillow case, and comforter are ready. You have to make your bed. My other roommate thought it was convenient but I actually liked the fact that I know that the sheets I am sleeping in are clean/freshly washed. The shared toilets are kept clean. I think there are four to five cubicles. Japanese-style toilets are available! The washroom, however, could use a little upgrade. Maybe place an area where guests can comfortably hang clothes or bring other important things without worrying that our things might get wet. There are slippers by the second floor front desk area that you can use for free. I didn't have a towel so I asked if I can rent one. The lad at the front desk gave me a disposal towel free of charge. At the common area, they play movies with ample space for hanging out. You can bring your laptops because tables are provided. Only one staff spoke a little English when I was there so it's always a good idea to brush up on your Mandarin Chinese. If you don't speak Chinese, be sure to download translation apps. You'll need them. Will I stay here again? Absolutely yes! Very affordable rate in a location that is so convenient for sightseeing and shopping.

It's a cheap and well-located hostel, and the staff was very nice. However, beyond these points, the hostel has a lot to improve. There are only two toilets per floor, with no soap, paper, or towels. It was quite cold in the rooms, and the other guests were somewhat annoying. Additionally, the common room is quite small, and I couldn't see the rooftop terrace—it seemed to be closed.
