Because I decided to go to Beihai at the last minute during the National Day, the price of the rooms had increased, and the reviews were pretty good, so I booked this place. I booked a bed for 150 per night and stayed for 2 nights. A girl in the same room booked earlier for 100 per night. When I checked in, the boss was very angry and felt that I was making less money. I have stayed in many youth hostels, but this one is really not a youth hostel. It is at most the level of an old guest house next to the train station. The photos on the app page are all overly beautified, and the real situation is very poor. The house was renovated from the first floor of an old community. It is not easy to find. There are no street lights at night, so it is difficult to take a taxi. There is no key card for the room, and no key is given. It is not locked from morning to night, it is only closed, and there is no privacy. There are no storage cabinets in the room, so valuables can only be carried with you. The bunk beds are spaced far apart, which is quite uncomfortable, and the bed will shake. The bathroom is shared and the voltage is unstable. There is no hot water during the shower. The boss said the circuit breaker has tripped. All disposable items are not provided, only sheets, duvet covers and pillowcases are provided. The room is in poor hygiene, there is no lighting, the lights must be turned on during the day, and cockroaches are infested. About renting a car: I rented the boss’s electric car on the night of the 1st, which cost 40 per day. The electric car was relatively old, and the dashboard was patinated, making it difficult to see the speed and power. The boss kept urging me to pay if I wanted to rent it. The electric car I mentioned needed to be charged, so be sure not to run out of power. The boss didn't provide any service throughout the whole journey. At that time, there was only one charger outside the store, so I charged it up. As expected, the battery ran out of power after riding for less than 10 kilometers the next morning. I called my boss, who asked me to find a repair place on the roadside to charge my car. It took me 2 hours to wait for the car to be recharged in the bright sun and then rode back. I arrived at the shop at 10:30 in the morning. The boss argued that I plugged in the wrong charger or someone unplugged the charging plug in the middle of the night. He said that it was me who begged him to rent the car and it was not his problem. Is this my problem? When I rented a car, I repeatedly told the boss that it must have electricity, but something went wrong. Shouldn't you be responsible for charging? When renting a car outside, other owners will even change the battery. The boss has always said that his car rental is cheap. I asked outside that the price was about the same, and other people's cars were very new, and the battery could be replaced directly, and the attitude was good. So I advise everyone not to rent a car here, it really affects your mood and time. In the end, I had a fight with the boss, and he refunded me 20 yuan. I paid 4 yuan for charging outside at my own expense. Because I went out to watch the sunrise by bike too early in the morning and didn't see the road clearly, and I rode into a mud pit, so I didn't care about the 4 yuan. But I feel really bad. The boss was very angry. I stayed there for 2 days and saw him quarreling with customers every day. Of course, I became one of the quarrels. If you really have requirements for safety and privacy, I don’t recommend staying here. It will affect your travel experience too much. Because there were always people in the room when I stayed, I didn't take photos of the room for privacy reasons, but you must lower your expectations. It took me half an hour to comment for the first time, I hope everyone will avoid this pitfall.
