Hua She International Youth Hostel

I stayed 2 nights there in the 8 beds dorm and the hostel is nice. The host is very hospitable, she will provide all the instructions for reach the hostel and help you if you need it. Also laundry machine is available there. Very near to the north railway station and the city centre is accessible by bus or DiDi I recommend this hostel ! Very good place and price.

Two things only are positive about this place - location and big rooms. Such a putty that a nice place like this with so much potential is not using it! It was freezing cold (colder inside than outside) and they refused to turn on the AC because of electricity bills. No toilet paper (no comment). There was only freezing cold water at the tap (they have even removed the hot tap handles). No explanation on how to get inside, that you need use a chip, I had to ask myself and ask as well for an explanation. No information about the area or what to do, not a social hostel at all. It was relatively clean, but cold and very moist inside the apartment.

The cleanliness could have been better, and there was no toilet paper. The listing mentioned a private bathroom and a shared toilet, but I only saw a shared bathroom. Overall, though, the price-to-value ratio makes it a reasonable option.

Room was very clean and spacious. The bathroom did have toilet paper and was clean, although I think some guests contributed to it being messy at times (water everywhere and toilet not so clean). The host messaged me before my arrival to advise the location. I didn’t get to use the laundry service but it is there if you need it!

The dorm was nice and big, clean and had a great view. They didn’t provide us with a toilet paper and shower didn’t drain so well. Apart from that the location was perfect and it was fine for one night

It’s mixed feelings about this hostel. Location is great being just 3 mins walk from the train station, surrounded by restaurants and convenience stores and a very safe neighbour hood/building. Service was very efficient and responsive, when we asked something it only took a few minutes to receive a reply, and room was huge and pleasant with excellent view and a western toilet. Only thing I didn’t understand in this hostel is the fact they do not provide toilet paper. They provide body shower gel but no toilet paper, why??? Luckily we stayed for one night and happened to have a roll of toilet paper in our bags because we arrived late and didn’t feel like going out to buy so be prepared to bring your toilet rolls with you here. Also cleanliness needs to be improved. The beds and bed sheets were very clean, no question about that but bathroom needs a better scrub. Other than that, this hostel was a pleasant stay.
