As one of our guests put 'This is an excellent hostel with restaurant facilities and very good food from early morning till late at night. The location in a small hutong gives it great atmosphere and the local family feel with several generations, a cat, a dog and a small happy baby all living under the same roof adds up to this being one of the greatest hostels you will ever stay at'

Our staff are friendly and English speaking always ready for help. All our lovely bedrooms are clean and of a fantastic value.

Again as another guests wrote in his review of our hostel'The character is outstanding and charming. When you first pull up you may be a bit confused because the area doesn't look the best. However, you soon realize this cute little place is in the center of a real old Beijing downtown. The rooms open up to a courtyard/restuarant where everyone goes to meet one another. Filled with many travellers from all over the world (in their 20s and 30s,even 40s) that you get to know over beers and food'.
