Zhangjiajie Cloud Youth Hostel

Host is a super nice guy and very helpful. He helps you book your tickets as well as with communication and he has many good tips for you. Usually people hang downstairs, there are also three cute cats. Usually people order food and have dinner together. You will easily meet fellow travelers here. The place is otherwise very basic and could need repairs and more frequent cleanups. But that is not the focus here. The hostel is also close to the starting point to Tianmen mountain. PS: The package for the avatar mountains has hiked to 450 RMB including cablecars and elevator (you can use the ticket on 4 consecutive days). 12 RMB to take the bus to its south gate. You need two days to finish the avatar mountains. Then one more day for Tianmen mountain. Another day for the canyon, if you want.

COCKROACHES, if that was not enough the bed sheets were dirty and had so many holes you would rather call them rags instead of sheets. The "Mattress" was also uncomfortable. The cleanliness was as already mentioned severely lacking. The showers also didn't have hot water and of course also really dirty. The owner was lazy and greedy constantly trying to sell me stuff. Even if you are tempted by the price it is NOT worth it. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!

The owner is really helpful and can give a lot of advice. You'll also meet travelers from around the world, which can be good to exchange information.

Owner very friendly and nice 👍 love this place feel like home

Very nice place. The host is quite friendly, he organised us a very delicious dinner

Definitely backpacking hostel vibes but for the price you can't really complain Room Only one of the beds had a curtain around it and it was already taken. Bed was alright. There's a lock on the entrance to the hostel that I wasn't told how to unlock so just sort of had to knock and hope someone would let me in then theres a lock on the room doors but was also not given a key to that so it just stays open Bathroom Some of the showers look a bit grubby and the toilet smelt a bit funky but they do the job Hosting As with most 24 hours receptions I've encountered in china, it is not really 24 hours. The guy manning the desk seemed pretty friendly and some guests were sitting with him on the bottom floor and they mentioned that we could join them to go out to eat as well so it seems like a pretty social kind of hostel. I believe they can support you with booking tickets to Tianmen and Zhangjiajie Amenities I think they also have a cafe. Again no one was at reception and I didn't have their wechat so I couldn't ask about luggage storage but they seemed fine when I came to pick it up later in the day so there's that as well
