| 4 Bunk room tiny! Hardly room to turn around. Very poor kitchen facilities.Very nice Cafe/Bar on premises but breakfast not available until 8.30am. Interesting area of an amazing city. Very noisy lift in next door building[market] very early in morning. Could not really recommend this hostel. | ||

| I was mainly very disappointed with the WiFi service having thought I would have access in my room. Even in the main common room I had trouble connecting. | ||

| The hostel is a Daishije, not quite People's square. My main difficulty with staying at this hostel is the noise. The walls are not insulated against noise at all, so everything in the hallways gets through to the sleeping areas. There is a quiet time at night, but it's not really respected often, and noise from just outside the bar/restaurant leeks to the halls as well. When other hostelers aren't making noise, there's the reasonable chance that whatever factory is located upstairs is doing something, the noises from upstairs range from a low bass rumble that vibrates the ceiling, a noise sounding like a dumpster of pop-cans being emptied, and something that sounds like a sci-fi space elevator that you can hear anywhere in the hostel, at all times of day. The beds are comfy, and if you can sleep through the sound, it's a nice place to stay. But I haven't been able to get a reasonable night's sleep on any of the four or so occasions I've been there. | ||

| This is a decent Hostel. I marked "Fair" for security because the guard was asleep when I arrived. There is another door you have to enter, but anyone can follow you in. It's not that I felt unsafe, but wanted to share. I also marked "Fair" for comfort. The interior rooms and hallway have a bad smell to them. It's a strong smell. I think it was mold, but couldn't tell. You adjust quickly to it, but it's unpleasant every time you enter the interior hallways/rooms. I was worried my cloths would adsorb the smell. Luckily, they did not. There's also a strange noise that can be heard in your room. It sounds like an elevator and it goes off throughout the night. Light sleepers may have a problem. Other than that the place has a nice community area and has a washer and dryer you can use. | ||

| The hostel was clean and in a great location for food and transit. The rooms were a bit noisy; I think there is a laundry or some sort of industrial business on the floor above. Also, every time we asked the staff a question, they didn't know the answer, such as where to find certain foods or how long it would take to get somewhere. But all that aside, I would stay there again for the great location. | ||
