Xi'an Hostellit

Plussat: The staffs are friendly, the room is clean and the beds are comfortable.

Plussat: The staff was extra nice! They give you great local tips and help you as much as they can; the location is also great!

Plussat: The staff were very thoughtful and caring, the room was fine, hot shower, location great, inside the old walls.

Plussat: Staff. Staff. Staff.

Miinukset: Squat toilet

Plussat: The staff was amazing! They help you out with everything, they even rent out public transport cards, which was super convenient. The girls were all open for a chat and made our two days in Xi’an a great experience. The food recommendations, maps and information they provide was accurate and great. Rooms good for a city trip with hot water, quite at night, clean and towels provided.

Plussat: Really funky, friendly and clean hostel (also with very nicely decorated private rooms which I had). Outside of building has a great design and the location is amazing. Right beside so many great restaurants and the old city walls. The people there were incredible - warm & welcoming.

Miinukset: I liked it all. But just as a note of advice to the people working there. They arranged my airport pick-up (and great minibus service to the airport that they can arrange for you at a very reasonable cost) but they advised getting to airport for my flight to Hong Kong 4 hours before departure. I tried to resist but they were quite adamant on getting there early enough. So I settled on getting to the airport >3 hours in advance. Was a waste of time that I could have enjoyed with a late breakfast in Xi'an, as my check-in desk didn't even open until 2 hours before the flight. Was quite frustrating as I had given my opinion that this was probably the case but they had said no - 4 hours needed for intl flights. Sometimes locals do know a bit less about their area than travelers when it comes to such things (as the travelers are the ones doing the travelling...) so be more sure of the advice you give as sitting at an airport well before your gate even opens is a sad loss of precious visitor time.

Plussat: Room was cosy and warm. Staff was welcoming and very helpful with a lot of tips. We really enjoyed our stay here. The hostel is well located, near by subway and good street foods.

Plussat: The staff is great, room was comfy and clean. Perfect location.

Miinukset: The only negative is the squat toilet

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: I seriously doubt that this is a youth hostel. It’s just a regular hostel in a prefect location. Inside it’s just like the ones you’d find in the train station neighborhood. Facilities are old, just look at those towels, also no shampoo or conditioner provided. The shower gel thing on the wall is broken too. No shared facilities or common rooms to meet other travelers. Xi’an is a once in a lifetime trip, should have chosen more carefully.

Plussat: Great location, had info on tours, beds were so comfy, toothbrushes, towels all included

Plussat: Great location and perfect for our overnight stay. If visiting the terracotta army make sure you get there early in the morning for opening time - you still won't beat the crowds but by 11am it was far too busy!

Plussat: We only spent 2 nights there but we had a nice experience, the hotel is situated in a very convenient location, there are a couple of international bars around there. Room was clean and they change the towels everyday. Warm water in shower, kettle in the room with two cups. All toiletries for fee available in the room. We booked a double standard room but they gave us a twin room but we just talked to the reception and showed our booking and gave us the room we wanted instantly.

Plussat: Everything there., service is excellent. Kindness is sooo goood generous is great they are above and beyond

Miinukset: Nothing at all

Plussat: Strategy location. Friendly staff.

Miinukset: Cleanliness can be further improve. But so far no issue.

Plussat: location

Miinukset: location

Plussat: Myself and my partner were upgraded to a private room just because the room was available. The staff were also very helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Plussat: There is a small shelf fixed near the bed, its very convinent for us. Toilet and bathroom seperated, it's very easy for us.

Miinukset: No lift for luggage transport as all the rooms located above.

Plussat: Big rooms and toilets

Miinukset: No courtains on beds

Plussat: They really help us a lot and get us a great taxi.

Miinukset: nothing. I like everything about the hotel.

Plussat: Great location! Staff super friendly and helpful! The atmosphere was also great!

Plussat: Very helpful staff, speak little English. The location is very good, near to Zhonglu subway station line 2 exit D (from Xian north), 5 minutes walk. Bell & Drum tower are 10 minutes walk from the hotel, Xian City wall Wansheng gate is 15 minutes straight walk. From Xian station take bus 603, and get down after three stops, towels, slippers and toiletries are provided. Better to carry your personal towel. Overall stay was comfortable.

Miinukset: Lights, and clean towels

Plussat: Guys there were very helpful

Plussat: Towel, toilet paper, a little soap provided. AC OK.

Miinukset: Not very clean (dust and crumbs on the nightstand). In my twin room, one bed had like a wooden board on top of the mattress (very uncomfortable), and the other one was just OK (can feel the springs inside the mattress). Soundproofing not very good. Wi-Fi very slow.

Plussat: It was almost perfect , cozy and the location is perfect

Miinukset: Didn't like that the shower was facing the toilet seat but it wasn't a big deal

Plussat: There was a hot shower which had a reasonable shower head. The sheets were clean. There was a useful pamphlet for using to navigate the city.

Miinukset: The staff while responding to requests appeared tired and totally reactive rather than proactive the hostel appeared to have been a vibrant place in the past but presently seems to have lost its mojo. We appeared to be the only guests they had hosted for some time.

Plussat: Very good location, 10min on foot from subway. Clean.

Miinukset: Bed a bit hard, just flip the matress and you'll sleep on the soft side.

Plussat: I had a most memorable stay because the staffs there were most helpful with my daily trips advises. Bus nos. to take from where and what to expect etc. The lady boss on one of the days, even walked me to Bell Tower to ensure I got to the correct side of the bus stops for my visits for that day. Isn't that just great. Everyone working at the hostels were great and practices services above the norm. Very please and make Xian a memorable place despite a couple of rainy days. And for that the staffs make sure I carry an umbrella along from the hostel. Thank You ALL for your kindness.
