Great location, right between Wuyi Square and Dongfeng Building in the city center. The room was clean, bright, and not humid. The bed and duvet were fresh and smelled lovely. The young owner, a handsome guy, was super enthusiastic and helpful. I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit!

For the price it's pretty great value for a one night stay, I don't think I would stay here for a couple of days. Here are the problems I've encountered: 1) They do not install the bed sheets and pillow case, you will have to do it yourself where the sheets are in a sealed packaging to give a sanitary impression. Don't get me wrong, the sheets are clean and do not smell at all, but I hope I could so lie down on my bed immediately after check in instead of going through the hassle of installing the sheets, plus there are people sleeping above and beside me so I could have cause some noise which will be an inconvenience to others. 2) Oh my God this is the worse and I did not expect this at all, i picked this place reading that it was supposed to be a non smoking room, but the whole rooms smells of cigarettes. The curtains could not isolate the smell at all. The occupants do not smoke in the room, the owner made it very clear that we are not supposed to smoke in the room; so the guests resort to smoke right outside the lobby, which is a few metres away from the room, and the wind brings the smoke back to the room which reeks and I find it so hard to breathe and they even do not put out the smoke after they did the smoking so it reeks almost the entire day. One night is enough for me, oh the bathroom is pretty small too. I couldn't imagine myself bathing in it so I skipped my bath during my stay here, so yeah I wouldnt recommend staying for more than a night here.

The owner, the staff and the guests here are pretty great. Met some nice people here. The facilities are pretty basic, though. Only one Chinese-style bathroom for everyone, which is extremely limiting. Very central location. They spend quite some energy on keeping it clean. It's on the 8th floor as you can tell by the address. Unfortunately and as always in China, people smoke a lot everywhere. They are luckily not allowed to smoke in the common area, but they will sit right in front of the main entrance. So the smoke enters through the open door and the common area always smells like cigarrettes.

The isle to my bunk bed was narrow a bit but they offered me a clean and cozy space.

I almost thought this was 'Backpackers' Decade' (a popular guesthouse chain/brand). The location is great. In the 8-bed female dorm, besides me, there was only one long-term resident. (So, if I hadn't been woken up at 1 AM by my roommate's phone call, it would have been perfect.) You have to put on your own duvet cover. Disposable toothbrushes are provided. Perhaps I'm more sensitive to smoke. Even though the guys were smoking outside the door, due to people coming and going and opening the door, there was still a bit of a smoky smell inside the female dorm.

Good location in the city. Place is clean and basic amenities are provided. Do note that bed mattress is thin. Otherwise, it is a nice place to stay.

Awesome location, clean and comfortable, only issue is the strong smell of smoke in the living room, not pleasant. Otherwise, all's good
