"My first time trying this place, and I thought it was great! I booked the cheapest room, which I think was a 16-person dorm, but the front desk lady upgraded me to a 12-person one. I even extended my stay for another night. The environment inside is quite peaceful. Everyone in the common areas is pretty respectful, except for a few loud shouts during billiards sometimes! Oh, and there were a lot of foreigners, couples mostly, chatting among themselves – it had a nice vibe. Since it was my first time, I wasn't familiar with everything and didn't prepare toiletries. When I went to shower, I even saw two guys coming out of the same stall, which honestly stunned me a bit. However, the privacy in the restrooms and shower rooms is excellent; they're all enclosed. The hot water comes on quickly, the water pressure is strong, and everything is clean. Everyone seemed pretty well-behaved. I mostly kept to myself, though, and didn't really interact with anyone. At one point, a foreigner asked me in English if he could use a stool. I honestly didn't understand anything he said, but I got his meaning and just waved my hand. He must have thought I was refusing him because he started to leave. I was so flustered I couldn't speak, just waving my hands around like fans, trying to convey my meaning. He must have seen my panic and understood, so he moved the stool. Only then could I relax and continue drinking my hot water alone. (I saw the front desk staff, both a guy and a lady, speaking English with the foreigners, and I was so envious! Ugh, I can only read English; I can't understand or speak it. I really need to practice my listening and speaking skills. I'll try my luck again next time.) Overall, I think it's a pretty good place. Oh, and its location is fantastic, right by the Bell Tower. But make sure you exit the correct subway station, or else a directionally challenged person like me will spend almost an hour wandering around trying to find it!"

See Pu Baosu and never forget the original intention. What is the meaning of growth? Are you facing the world head-on with edges and thorns? Compromise against all unfairness and unspoken rules? Or go all the way to find the first touch? These fragmentary definitions seem insufficient to explain growth. These revitalized rooms seem to be looking for answers. Who doesn’t walk all the way, discard all the way, and then pick up all the way? I am reminded of a poem by Kahlil Gibran, which is suitable to be used here: Don’t forget why we set out just because we have gone too far.

"I loved the localization of this hostel. It's inside of the Muslim quarter, so you get the full street food experience and there's a lot to see. I feel like the Muslim quarter was the most lively place in the city, and there's always a reason for it: people like me love it! The rooms were very clean and tidy, I liked that there where places for you to but your stuff in the bed space, it felt cozy. The air conditioner worked well, but turned off after some time, which was not super nice. The bathrooms were kind of dirty, with lots of hair in the ground. I get that people shower in the bathroom, but I noticed that even after cleaning staff had just cleaned, there was still hair, and the bathroom was super wet, making it difficult to use. The staff didn't speak english at all, but used translation devices when necessary, which is ok. Overall, it was a good stay and I would do it again, but there could be more attention regarding toilet cleaning."

"Located on the second floor next to Luomashi, this place is similar to a university dorm. The sleeping area and washing area are separate, so washing up doesn't disturb those who are sleeping. The transportation is incredibly convenient, making it easy to get to all of Xi'an's attractions. Being right next to Luomashi also means shopping and dining are very accessible. I stayed for three nights and encountered five foreigners, so there's a good concentration of international guests. Each bed has an outlet, a privacy curtain, and a small lamp, which is very convenient. Soundproofing is decent; generally, it's pretty quiet and not too noisy. Next to the front desk, there are slippers for changing into, and you can store your outdoor shoes there, which prevents any odors in the dorm – a nice touch. The bathrooms have disposable toilet seat covers, toilet paper, shower gel, and shampoo, which is good. Improvements are definitely needed: The impractical trash cans in the women's restroom should be replaced immediately with foot-pedal bins, or the lids should be removed entirely so people can toss things in directly. The current bins are worse than having none at all, as even throwing a hair or a piece of tissue means contaminating my hands. Please install some shelves above the sinks for people to place their belongings, which would also make it easier for the cleaning staff to tidy up the counters. There's a lot of standing water in the showers; improving this would be better. The shower stalls are quite small, and larger individuals might find it hard to turn around, so be prepared for that."

Hotel near Yongning Men/Xi'an Museum,Xi'an
「 Urban Connection 」 Located on Xi'an’s central axis, the inn is just steps away from Exit D of Gymnasium Station (Metro Line 2). This transit hub offers seamless transfers to Xi'an North Station, Xi'an Railway Station, and Xianyang International Airport. We are also within walking distance of the "Xi'an Hotel" Airport Shuttle Station. Superior accessibility is designed to save your time for exploring the city, rather than commuting through it. 「 Spatial Concept 」 We embrace a fusion of Japanese minimalism and industrial aesthetics. The space features expansive whites complemented by raw concrete textures and disciplined lighting. Stripped of redundant decor, our design relies on lines created for "tranquility," offering travelers a pure sanctuary detached from the urban clamor. 「 Living Details 」 Dormitory Beds: Equipped with thickened blackout curtains and individual ambient lighting, creating a private "personal territory" within a shared space. Single Rooms: Featuring private desks and projectors, these rooms cater to both deep sleep and mobile office needs, providing a quiet sanctuary for solitude. Cinema Double Rooms: Combining private en-suite bathrooms with giant-screen cinema systems, allowing you to enjoy the serenity of home while on the road. 「 Guest Curation 」 Resonance and Respect. We uphold a standard of guest curation through identity verification and shared values, strictly declining uncivilized behavior. Here, you need not worry about "intrusive" roommates; instead, you will meet fellow travelers who share your appreciation for quality and personal boundaries. 「 Service Boundary 」 We respect the independence of every guest. We provide thoughtful assistance without overbearing presence. We believe the ultimate hospitality experience should be as natural and quiet as breathing.

"This was my first time staying at a hostel, and it was a 10/10 experience! The service was incredibly attentive, thorough, and patient. They even play movies in the evenings, which gave me such a cozy and nostalgic feeling, just like watching films with friends back in school. Lying in bed with my eyes closed, I found myself reminiscing about my dorm days. I sincerely hope Sifang expands and opens branches everywhere!"

"I had an excellent stay in this hotel. First of all the service was really great. When I arrived at the hotel, they gave me a room that was already occupied, but when I said about the problem they immediately change the room and I got ar upgrade without paying any extra cost. As for the room, it was very clean and the amenities were very useful. Also the toilets were clean and there were both squat and sitting ones. The location was also quite convenient, as it was next to the Da Tang Mal, so the night was very lively. The only con is that the metro station was little bit far (around ten minutes by foot), but overall it was easy to find the hotel even for a non-chinese-speaker like me In conclusion, I would advise this hotel if you come to XiAn, as my stay here was really great"

"I really enjoy staying in youth hostels across the country, where I get to meet all sorts of people from different places. I particularly liked this hostel; it's right near the Bell Tower and super close to the subway station. The rooms are very clean, and the facilities are great. The cleaning staff are very diligent, and the bathrooms have both Western and squat toilets. What I loved most was the message board by the entrance, filled with notes from travelers far and wide. I adore Xi'an, the city of carbs, with so much amazing food. And most importantly, you can really feel its deep history. Standing on the city walls and visiting the museums, you truly grasp the fleeting nature of grand palaces. Walking through Xi'an's streets, you can imagine the glorious Tang Dynasty, open and inclusive, with nations flocking to its court. I'll definitely be back when I have the chance!"

I have lived here for a while and I am very satisfied with it. The boss is very warm and polite. The location of this place is also very good. It is on the central axis of Chang'an Road in Xi'an. Xi'an Metro Line 1 is just outside the door. About 1km south is the two large shopping malls of Xi'an MixC and MixC. The ruins of the Temple of Heaven in the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty City That Never Sleeps, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the Shaanxi Museum and many other scenic spots are all within 3km. The transportation is well connected and extremely convenient. It is the best choice for those who travel alone. The view from the room is also very good. From the window, you can see the CBD of Jinye Road in Xi'an and the Qinling Mountains in the distance.

The hostel is located in an alley off Huimin Street, so it's easy to walk past. Keep an eye out for it on your left. The owner had a really pleasant voice on the phone 🤤. It's a self-service hostel, meaning you're responsible for your own trash, including hair on the floor. Overall, it was quite clean, though the sofa had a bit of an odor. The cats are super friendly and will rub against you!

I love the design of my bed, it covers all the beds with curtains for full privacy! The hostel is clean and cool! The host is quite friendly and approachable! For the first timer, the hostel is easy to locate. In front of the entrance, there will be a mannequin of old men (refer to my picture). Take the elevator to level 5 (refer my picture) and you will see the reception. It's nearby to The Drum Tower Xian and Muslim Hui Street!

I came to Xi'an in a hurry. I just checked into a youth hostel after leaving the train station. The moment I stepped into Mushe, I would have never imagined that the time after that would be so nostalgic. Come to your senses, am I really leaving now? Obviously there was no emotion at all when I first came here. I just felt like it was a youth hostel that was very hygienic and everyone got along well. When did I fall in love with this place? Was it the landlady who picked me up at the door late at night on the first day I came here? Is it the dim lights and misty smoke outside the gate in the dead of night? Is it the unexpected encounters between him and her, or the snacks on the street corner that you never get tired of eating? Is it the bustling Muslim Street or the dimly lit city that never sleeps? When exactly was it, and who was it, cunningly leaving something in a corner that I didn’t notice at the time that I will think about day and night in the future. When you fall in love with a place, your thoughts will never leave your mind easily. When you fall in love with a place, whatever happens there will always be memorable. At a certain moment, it may be the chat in the living room after dinner, it may be ”that medicine” in my hand when I have a cold, or it may be an ordinary moment, I understand the sentence: ”Actually, the best memory is In the moment, in front of you, and it will be the best time of your life.” Thank you again Xi'an Mushe~Looking forward to seeing you next time!

The location wasn’t close to the city center however the nearest metro station is about 15 min by walking. The service was so nice, despite the fact they didn’t know English, we used google translate and we perfectly could communicate. For the price, the hotel is okay but when I arrived there, the pillow case and the blankets were with small holes and a bit ripped.
