Hotel near Xinjiekou Area/Presidential Palace,Nanjing
"This hostel is perfect for young people with all sorts of games available. The rooms are quite spacious, and you won't be disturbed by other guests. The environment is good, and the rooms are clean. The women's restroom is okay, but when showering, water flows out of the shower stall and into the rest of the bathroom, which is inconvenient for those using the toilet. This could definitely be improved. Other than that, everything was fine. When I booked the hostel, I read some reviews saying that there was a KTV nearby and that sleeping could be an issue, but I didn't experience any loud noise. It's very close to Xinjiekou Metro Station Exit 15, and below Exit 1, there are many bars and arcades. Mingwalam is also nearby. It's not too far from Nanjing Railway Station by metro. Most importantly, I'm very satisfied because I think it's hard to find such an affordable hostel in Xinjiekou."

"I had a roommate named sky. We got along really well and he took me to a massage place next to the hostel. It was an interesting experience to say the least. The best part about this hostel is the nb market just below it. The staff also are very friendly and helped me order food on taobao. The bathroom and shower are very clean also. The people are mostly young people looking for work so not many hygiene issues from guest. Absolutely no issues. I would stay here next time I'm in Nanjing"

"After a lot of research, I finally decided on Yindu, which I can confidently call the pinnacle of all-female hostels nationwide. I honestly don't think any other hostel can surpass Yindu. The location is excellent, making it super convenient for getting around. It's probably only a 6-7 minute walk from the subway station. There's a McDonald's and a police station downstairs, and an elevator which is really handy. The owner even provides fresh, sweet, and delicious watermelon. The environment is also fantastic. There are plenty of showers and toilets, so you never have to wait, and lots of hairdryers too. Sitting in the common area listening to music during downtime is very pleasant. When I checked in, the owner was very meticulous, explaining everything and introducing the facilities. All in all, Yindu is just the best!"

"This hostel changed the idea I had of a great hostel! SEE OTHER REVIEWS FOR COMPREHENSIVE UNDERSTANDING CHECK-IN/STAFF: Simple & easy. There is a language barrier with most of the staff, but it's nothing a little patience, on both ends, and a translator can't fix. I was helped to my room with my bags. I personally enjoyed the staff and especially one of the cleaning ladies. She was truly a joy to see every day and seemed like she genuinely liked seeing me. They helped when my food order had issues, twice. I was helped getting I was running late for my train on check-out morning. ROOMS/FACILITIES: Comfortable, clean and curtain for the beds. I the rooms are reasonably spacious. The average person follows the general quiet in the rooms so you can sleep peacefully any time you want. The blanket is thick, some beds have extra little hooks. (Would be nice if they added them for all beds) Pillows are decent, towel and locker provided. Beds have North American & Chinese style plugs. The entire outlet system of the building seems to be that way. AMENITIES/GOOD TO KNOW Laundry detergent, toothbrush/toothpaste individually wrapped units and earplugs provided at no cost. Towel/bed sheet change upon request is offered if stay is 3+ days. The main lobby toilets are used buy restaurants guests from next door. The is security at night (not personally for the hostel, for the alley) Private homes are across the way so keep the volume low to quiet after 10pm. OVERALL/PERSONAL THOUGHTS ” I would recommend staying here for a short or long period. Excellent valut for dollars. I felt very welcomed, comfortable & overall relaxed. My only real complaint is the lack of fridge,microwave and a sink area. As a budget traveler it can get costly having to order or go out for every meal is super inconvenient. To be fair, you can ask for your items to be placed in the staff fridge at the bar. The downside is having to wait and ask for staff to get it for me. This was super frustrating when I wanted my food and had to wait about 20 minutes for someone to finally be able to do it. Not to mention the general inconvenience of not being able to go to a fridge at will. Even though there's a laundry area upstairs, many people will do laundry in the sinks leaving the bathroom floors constantly wet and countertops soaked. Not management's fault but could possibly be addressed in the rules. There are days where a gentleman will come sit outside the hostel or the general alley area with Barky McBarkerson his incredibly annoying dog that's constantly barking at everyone and everything. When they're directly on the property hanging out infront don't even think of enjoying the fresh air peacefully . I think there's a way for management to address bothersome behavior to their guest. IMO if management could somehow provide a common fridge and a microwave, they would be close to top tier hostel all things considered. Review based on multiple stays. Enjoy"

The Nanjing Freedom Youth Hostel provides a great place for travelers to relax after a busy day. Visitors to Nanjing will find that the Nanjing Freedom Youth Hostel is a fantastic accommodation choice. Boasting a convenient location, the hotel is just 6km from Nanjingnan Railway Station and 37km from Nanjing Lukou International Airport.

"The bed in the room is good to sleep on, the quilt and pillows are comfortable, and the air conditioning is sufficient. The hotel is located in the Qinhuai Scenic Area, with the Qinhuai River, Jiangnan Gongyuan, and Confucius Temple all within easy reach. It is bustling with people after dark! If someone takes a shower in the bathroom, the toilet cannot be used at the same time; and the flushing effect of the toilet is not good, and there are often stains left by the last person who used it. I know that it is not that he does not flush, but that the water really cannot flush. Lose."

"The room was spotless and very tidy. The duvet was super soft and comfortable, and the layout was well-designed, with a dedicated dining area and a vanity room. There was even a special space for luggage. We also had to change into slippers upon entering, which really helped keep things clean and quiet. The cat manager was absolutely adorable and very friendly! The only minor downside is that it's a bit of a walk to the subway station, which could be inconvenient if you have a lot of luggage. But if you're not in a hurry, it's perfectly fine. Overall, I highly recommend this place!"

"This was my first time staying in an all-female hostel, and it was so lovely and pink! The front desk staff were incredibly warm and provided excellent service. After checking in, they helped me change into slippers and showed me to my room, and even made my bed for me – I didn't have to do it myself. They even offered free tremella soup during the holidays! I originally came here to look for a job, thinking I'd stay a few extra days to find something suitable. When I chatted with the owner about looking for work, she was very enthusiastic and even introduced me to a job. I interviewed the same day and got it – I'm so grateful! They also have light meals available at the hostel, which is a godsend for women trying to lose weight. You can pre-order them with the owner since they're all freshly made. I've become good friends with the hostel after just one stay! Wishing the establishment prosperous business and overflowing wealth!"

*The image is the alley in front of the hotel at night. [Good points] ・There are many restaurants and convenience stores nearby. ・The parent and child who manage the hotel are kind and cute ・Card key system ・The cat inside the hotel is cute ・Very close to Nanjing International Airport [Points to note] ・The hotel is located in an alley and is pitch dark at night. →Please be careful as there are stray dogs🐶. ・Located in the suburbs of Nanjing City →It takes about 1 hour or more from Nanjing South Station ・The sound of the air conditioner is a little bothersome. →Bring earplugs etc. - May be cold in winter [Overview] Excellent cost performance. However, it was a cold season so I felt a little cold. It's located on the outskirts of Nanjing, so it's difficult to get there unless you take a bus (although you can get there by taxi, but...) If you're using Nanjing Airport, I think this is probably the best hotel you can stay at on Trip.com. Masu. I'm planning to come to China again after I'm able to speak Chinese, so I'll come back and stay the night again 🤭

This hostel is very clean, has fewer long-term residents, and some design details could be improved. What I liked: Everything from the environment to the beds was very clean. The beds were comfortable, the room had no strange smells, and the location was good. What could be improved: The room didn't have a wardrobe, only two small lockers on the bed frame, which couldn't even fit a small backpack. Because the lockers were on the bed, it was very inconvenient to open my bag, take things out, or organize them. It would be much more convenient if the room had a small long table, or even if there was a newspaper on the floor to put my bag on. The shower room was relatively small, with nowhere to put clothes. I had to hang my clothes on a hook on the door. There was a shower curtain to prevent them from getting wet. It was a bit inconvenient but I got used to it by the second day. Laundry: It was clean, but you had to scan a QR code and register on your phone to use it. I couldn't receive the verification code in the laundry room.

The boss and staff are friendly and will help with any problems. The bed and pillows are comfortable and clean. It is good to provide a disposable three-piece set and dental bath towels. There is no washing machine on the wheel for a few days, so the clothes are washed by hand. It is great to have laundry detergent. It is great to have a balcony to dry the clothes quickly! ! Personally, I am not very used to squatting toilets, and always feel a little taste, but can still bear it. If you come back next time, I hope the toilet paper on the sink will be perfect. (The third picture is the sum of 🤣🤣🤣)

Close to the subway station of Line S3. (Linshan Station) or (Qiaolin New Town Station) (Shuangshao Station) can be dropped off. The facilities are all available, the laundry room is super practical, the road is not noisy, the sound insulation effect is leveraged, and the dream is done. The washing machine is convenient and efficient, and the first choice for business trips! Close to the S3 subway, the street is next to the development zone and the industrial park.

This time I accompanied my son to take the exam in Nanjing and stayed at the Xinyue Hotel. It was close to the exam venue and easy to come and go. The customer service of the hotel was also good. You can also wander around. There are snack bars, supermarkets, vegetable markets, and small parks on Fengnan Street.
