PROS: This hostel's main advantage is its location and cleanliness. It is only one block from the MRT and the main attractions, like Hongya Cave. A man's bedroom has a good city view. The room also has a hot and cold shower, perfect for China’s weather.
CONS: It is hard to locate because no English signs, so you need to decipher and ask people about the address. I wish the owner would include a direction map for foreign tourists. Sometimes, Apple and Chinese Maps are different and inaccurate, so you must compare and check them. Sometimes, the door passcode is not working properly, so you need to chat with the owner to request a new one.
NOTES: The toilet is squat-type, so if you are used to a sitting toilet, this might not be for you. It's kind of self-checkin but you need to scan the QR code in the door because the owner or staff is not staying at the place. So you will chat everything using we chat like passcode request, concerns, and complaints.
