Guiyang Hostels

"Amazing hostel! Super clean, kind staff, a lot of space in the common areas! You can also watch a film on a projector (I couldn't figure it out as I don't speak Chinese), read something, or have a drink at the bar. It was surprisingly quiet. There's a locker room where you can leave your luggage. In the bathroom they also provide scrunchies and cleansing wipes, and in the room you've got a disposable towel for each day plus a toothbrush+toothpaste set. They've got decently priced local snacks and souvenirs (eg. magnets and pins), which is great! Location-wise, it's very close to the station (around 10 yuen taxi to Guiyangbei railway station), downstairs there's a mini market, and if you walk around the block, you'll see a lot of food places (open even late at night). There are no signs showing where the hotel is so when the taxi drops you off, find a lift (outside the building) and go to the 3rd floor. I do recommend it a lot! :)"

"Facilities: Very comprehensive. The hairdryer is a Laifen, and the toilets are squat toilets, which are very hygienic – no worries about infections. The bed has a foam mattress, and the pillow is a comfortable memory foam. The women's restroom is quite clean, with three showers and three squat toilets, which is very convenient. There's also a place to hang clothes, as well as self-service coin-operated laundry and drying machines. Free slippers are provided, and there's a free large towel in the bed pod. Aside from the sleeping area and communal space being separate, it feels pretty much like staying in a single room at a hotel. They have everything you need. Hygiene: The beds are quite clean, and the restrooms are also very clean, with staff cleaning them promptly. Environment: It's very close to the Fountain Metro Station and easy to find. The surrounding noise isn't too loud and is acceptable. Service: The front desk staff are all very enthusiastic. I hope all hostels can meet this standard. If only they could open a chain of these!"

"This is the 12th hostel I've stayed at in China, and I spent 6 days here during my Guizhou trip. It's a place with very clear pros and cons. Pros: 1. Convenient location: It's within walking distance of Qingyun Market, the Ethnic Minorities Museum is just across the street, there's a Walmart right by the subway entrance for supplies, and a really good massage place in the Broadcast and Television Compound. 2. Fair price: The rates didn't even increase during a concert period. 3. Responsive host: The host was always accommodating and quick to respond. Cons: 1. Small space: Both the 4-bed dorm room and the bathroom/shower area were very cramped. No wet/dry separation. Due to the small space, there are no lockers inside the room; they are in the main hall. 2. General hygiene: It was just okay. For example, under the mattresses, there were countless 'treasures' left by previous guests, and there were always hairs in the sink. 3. Public areas: No curfew and no smoking ban. Suggestions for the owner: 1. When guests check in, the host could briefly introduce the common area facilities, such as the laundry room and where the lockers are. 2. The hot/cold labels on the shower faucet in the women's bathroom are completely reversed. Please fix them or put up a clear sign on the wall. Also, regularly inspect and maintain all facilities. 3. Some mattresses are too thin, like lying on a board, while others are too thick, making it hard to sit up straight without hitting your head when getting in and out of bed. The mattresses vary between beds. I suggest replacing them all with a moderate thickness. 4. There are gaps around the edges of the mattresses where things can easily fall. Please check around the mattresses for any lost 'treasures' after guests check out. 5. Implement rules for public areas, such as no loud music or shouting after a certain hour."

"It's great; the stray cats here are very well cared for. It's a very nice shop; the staff are all nice, and the kittens are very friendly. The location is convenient, but it's a little hard to find, as the hostel is located above ground, so you need to look up. Judging from the decor, this shop has been open for quite a while."

"Disposable amenities were readily available, which was convenient, and the receptionist was very kind; she even helped make the bed when I arrived late. However, the room smelled terrible, probably because the bed material was very poor. The stench was unbearable, almost like I was going to get poisoned. I wouldn't recommend staying there, at least not this room. The website described it as having a window, but it didn't, and I couldn't sleep at night. I eventually had to leave the door ajar. Also, the bathroom and washroom were outdoors, which was quite cold."

"The location is excellent, right off the main street in the heart of the old town. While I haven't stayed in many hostels, this one is definitely the cleanest and tidiest I've encountered. The room decor is simple and neat, and the courtyard is also clean and bright. The bathroom/shower is exceptionally clean, completely odor-free, and even the toilet bowl is sparkling white. I really appreciate that smoking is prohibited inside the hostel. The owner even pointed out designated smoking areas."

"Great place to stay for one or two nights. Close to the North station and Metro station. Clean, but under the bed a wide layer of dust, need to remove) bed wide, seats many. In general, there is a chair, table, microwave, drinking water. the toilet is very clean, but instead of the door blinds, it is strange) in general I am pleased, I can recommend other travelers."

"Superb place to stay with high cp value! Spacious, free laundry, nice design - just like staying in a cafe. Full with amenities like heater, fan, hanger and thick privacy curtain all at bedsides. Even kitchen and refrigerator are sparkling clean, hey this is god damn rare in china ok! Guests staying here are lacking of travel vibes but they are cool and peace, everyone seems like maintaining the cleanliness together! Say no more, you can check my pictures to express my feeling better. Definitely my best stay in China! (Tips: the bed is a bit hard for me but still it is Abt solid 3 inches thick) If u don't mind this is definitely the place to stay peacefully, surrounding by all kind of malls, bars, clubs and cheap restaurants! The boss is very friendly and polite too (normally Chinese won't answer much to requests but he did all for me!) thanks boss!👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏💯💯🍀🍀"

"Still good, the housing is modified, the bathroom is available, in summary, what kind of bicycles are needed at this price? 🤔🤔"

"The place was incredibly clean, and the owner was super nice. Even though I went to the wrong place, the owner patiently explained where it was. I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Guiyang. There's an amazing cat there that kept begging to rub against me. There are lots of places to eat downstairs, and it's conveniently located near most attractions. I highly recommend trying the Guichu Sour Soup Beef Hot Pot nearby—it was so delicious! I ate three bowls of rice!"
