Ratings: 1 – 5 star each for…  The Vibe, Beds, Whereabouts, Staff, Cleanliness

The Vibe:  This was set up more like a hotel than a hostel making it a little hard to meet people.  The bar downstairs made up for it with plenty of tables, plush couches and a pool table.  Free wifi and a restaurant with very good Western food and awesome Chinese food!!  Also, having a creative streak???  Just grab some markers and draw on the walls!!  Stars: 4
 

Beds:  When it comes to beds in China these weren’t too bad.  Puffy, comfy pillows and blankets.  All beds get their own lamp and locker!  Stars: 4 

Whereabouts:  Right inside the South Gate, this place is a short walk to the Muslim Quarter, malls, Goose Pagoda and the Bell and Drum Towers.  It is also a quick bus ride away from the train station where you access buses to the Terracotta Warriors.  Stars: 5 

Staff:  Not very interactive because it was set up more like a hotel but very helpful when pursued.  Stars: 3 

Cleanliness:  Super Duper clean!!  Beds changed everyday and the bathrooms were immaculate!!  Stars: 5 

Total Stars: 21!!  Overall a nice stay!!  Good value for price, awesome location and good food!!!
