Clean:

Location:

"Walking distance is just acceptable as it takes more than 15 mins to walk home everyday from the metro station, it makes travelers feeling quite tired especially after a whole day trip." — source Hostelworld

"This is an excellent hostel, with an unparallelled location right in the heart of Beijing; a five minute walk from the Forbidden City, and steps from old hutongs and fine restaurants." — source Hostelworld

"The location is convenient: in a nice hutong area close to Tiananmen, Wangfujing, Forbidden City and not too far from the subway." — source Hostelworld

"Wondeful place to stay and walking distance to the subway so its really convenient, down the raod from everything else you need." — source Hostelworld

"This was a very nice and comfortable hostel located right next to the forbidden city, close to wanfujing street and Beihai park." — source Hostelworld

"Clean and decent room at a reasonable price." — source Hostelworld

"So good value for the price." — source Hostelworld

"I was a bit upset to discover when arrived 5 hours later than I said I would due to a delayed flight (I arrived at 4 instead of 11) they had already given my room to someone else but thankfully they still had one spare." — source Hostelworld

"The double room we stayed in was a bit crowded, with not much room for much besides ourselves (although we were traveling with a bit too much of luggage, and other rooms did seem to be larger)." — source Hostelworld

"I only had a problem with the size of the room. The room, which had two bunks, could barely fit one person and their bag inside let alone two." — source Hostelworld

"I was in the 12 room dorm and my major complaint about was the ensuite bathroom Ensuite does not work for a 12 person dorm." — source Hostelworld

"The dorm rooms are a bit small but the rest of the place more than makes up for that." — source Hostelworld
