Traditional courtyard hostel near to Qianmen street”
The hotel proximity to various eateries and restaurants is quite good. Just a few steps away. At night you can have stroll to the flee market to buy some souvenirs or a drink. Qianmen street is also decently walkable. I walked directly to Tiananmen from the hotel and took the metro to the Heavenly temple which are must do tourist attraction. The temperature is quite cold during November luckily the hostel had a heater. The room was spacious but provided the bare minimum as compared to the other hotels I went in Shanghai and Hangzhou.

The centre of Beijing ”
Convinient location 10-15 minitue walk from Qianmen metro. There are restaurants and mini markets nearby. Mixed dorm has enough spaces for 5 persons. There is a big locker with key you can put 60 liter backpack. There is a nice inner court.

Good for location”
The location of the hotel was great. I had a double en suite which very basic but good to use a base while visiting Beijing. They couldn't provide coffee when asked but you can get a cold drink at least. My room was in the little courtyard but the hostel doesn't allow noise in the communal courtyard after 10pm so you get no noise so that was good. Food wise i didn't try the breakfast but just down the road there are plenty of places to eat and even a bar which serves western food. Only a short walk (about 15mins) to the nearest subway station which is on the main line 2 so very central location.

An OK hostel. Not so bad, but far from great :)”
Facilities here are okay. Bed comfort, cleanliness, are meeting the minimum standard. At least you won't feel bad for the facilities here. Location is good, as it's quite close to qinmen street. Though not so close to main attractions like forbidden palace or the temple of heaven, or the great wall (better not to say about the last one hahahaha) Staffs have a lot of room to improve in terms of hospitality. However I don't think it's not the staffs' fault, as we may hypothesize that 'hospitality' is not this country's character like in other East Asian countries or South East Asia. Yet the staffs are still a bit helpful though :) Another possible concern with this place is the behavior of other guests. There's a people who can enter the dorm (while he didn't stay there), to use our bathroom, boil water, etc. Again, it's not the hostel's fault. Not sure if he doesnt have the same amenities in his room (ehm, my room was the cheapest one at that time haha), can't wait for other people using bathroom in his room, it's a common practice in China, or other possibilities. Overall, this place is good considering its price. Not always the cheapest, but quite competitive.

nice stay in qianmen”
overall it's good,walkable to most attraction places like qianmen street and dashanlan, the most famous quanjude peking duck is just 15mins away,there's a lot of food along the street i booked a triple room with private bathroom,room is cozy and the bathroom is big,but the most inspired area is the courtyard,my mom love it,we are really enjoy our stay in this siheyuan the ONLY thing that i wanna comment is the location as here is very far away from the mrt station,if you were a good walker, i would definitely suggest you to stay here~it worth what u have paid

Meh”
It's a green location in the Qianmen district. Near lots of great food and a subway stop. Walkable to tinnamen square and the forbidden city. Front desk people weren't very helpful. But the older ladies who cooked and cleaned were great. Basic room and bathroom. Stayed 5 nights and it was fine.

Cheap hostel ”
Ok for that price. Not cleaned everyday, there is only one bathroom/1 toilet in the same room (I was in the 10-beds dorm) which is inconvenient. The wifi is not perfect but works ok. Apart from that, it's quite well located (historical sites around, food markets, supermarkets around...), the staff is nice, and it's cheap

just ok”
Hotel is just ok. hard to find (but we arrived late at night so maybe..) no wi-fi access in room. room is just basic bed and bath. a little dusty and had a little trouble with bathroom during stay. but place is accessible to nearest station by foot and you can also go to near markets and attractions by walk.

It was fun and memorable”
Had a great time there, met some nice people... There was a nice courtyard where people could meet and hang out and drink cheap cold beer. The showers were great... The atmosphere was friendly and inviting.

Dirty and old. Needs to walk far to get any transportation.”
The room and rest room are dirty and old, i need to put alcohol on the water closet twice to wipe it clean, water in shower too weak, hard to shower. Needs to walk far to get any transportation including taxi. The only good about it is near Dazhalan walking street.

A staff member was very rude to chinese. They did not show respect the guests like speaking loudly while other guests were sleeping.
