Chengdu the goat

This hostel was a solid base for my Chengdu adventures. One of the best things? The staff spoke English! That made a huge difference when it came to getting tips, asking questions, and just feeling more at ease. The rooftop bar was another highlight—amazing vibe, perfect view, and a great place to unwind after a day of exploring. Now for the downsides: the sink was inside the shower area, which meant getting my feet wet every time I wanted to brush my teeth—kind of annoying. The lockers were also pretty tiny, and I couldn't fit all my stuff. Plus, there was only one outlet near the bed, which made charging devices a bit of a juggling act. Overall, still a great spot, especially if you're looking for a social hostel in a convenient location! #discoverchina

I'd like to recommend a cute, homey hotel in Chengdu that's under a hundred baht. 💘🛖 The accommodation is located in the famous ifs area, Panda Climbing the Building on Taikoo Li Road. It is easy to travel and is near Chunxi road subway station, which can connect to other lines in the heart of famous shopping areas. And the bus stop to and from Tianfu Airport The room is clean. The bed has a heater, so it's definitely comfortable to sleep in. The staff can speak English and are very helpful. They are so cute. 🥰 If you go before check-in time, don't worry. You can leave your bags and continue your trip. Or you can wait at the hotel, where you can sit and charge your phone. 🛋️👉🏻 Chengdu Flipflop Lounge Hostel 🗺 Place name: ✨There are many types of rooms. We booked a double bed for 2 people + 1 child for 6xx per night, split with a friend, so it's 3xx per person! 🗣: Book on Trip.com #Chengduaccommodation #chengdu #travelchengdu #tourism #china #travelchina

This trip was a backpacking trip, and we chose a hostel instead of a hotel. The hostel is on Chunxi Road, and there is a supermarket, a trade market, and a "lot" of places to eat and souvenir shops downstairs. It's really convenient! #成都
