Hostels in Fujian, China

Two months later, I turned over Trip.com and suddenly saw that the evaluation in January was not written to make up for it. The room is clean and tidy. Dongshan Island is very cold in January. The room also provides thick quilts. Hailexin's people are really super good. I went to see the sunrise with my sisters in Xinjiang and Chengdu in the same bedroom. Rhubarb and Xiaohui. There was also a little brother who took me to Aojiao on an electric bike. The boss’s people are also super good. I confess that the boss will not ride an electric car on the first night. He borrowed my bicycle to ride a bicycle. The bicycle broke down halfway and drove a motorcycle to save me. I recommended delicious food on the road. The next day I went to Aujiao Electric Car and there was no electricity. I also came to send the battery. Later, I took me to other attractions. I had to go and sent me to the nearby bus stop. I had expected to be alone for New Year's Day, but I was flattered by the experience. The sea breeze on Dongshan Island in January is cold, but it is warm in Haile What is my next holiday, I will come to Hailexin 🥰🥰🥰

Firstly, I want to emphasise that the hostel staff are amazing - very friendly and helpful. They helped me sort out a problem with my phone, shared their suggestions of places to visit, and helped me upgrade my room too. So 10/10 for the staff. To give a more honest review of the room though: Pros: The shared common room area is very spacious, and a great place to meet new friends. There are games and activities available, plus they often organised free social events like card game nights and movies. The dorm room was relatively spacious, with a desk space too. The beds have good privacy curtains. There are plug sockets by each bed for charging phones etc. Cons: The main issue I have with the dorm rooms is that there is a dedicated bathroom per room. This seems great, until you have a roommate who spends three full hours all morning recolouringtheir hair in there, while the rest of us can't use the toilet or shower. Other than that, I did feel that the location was a bit inconvenient (I had to drag my suitcase through some kind of dirty building site to get there, and it is about 15 mins walk from the main tourist area). Additionally, the beds were very uncomfortable (they've used foam mattesss toppers on wooden boards, with no actual mattress) and didn't have a shelf next to the bed or any storage lockers for bags. Also the hostel didn't provide towels for dorm room guests (which is usually standard). After the issue with the roommate hogging the bathroom (who also snored all night too...) I asked to pay the difference to upgrade to a private room. The hostel happily arranged this without any issues, and even prepared the room for me to move into early. This private room was much better - a proper mattress, towels provided, etc. It was a bit noisy when the neighbour turned on their air conditioning (since the unit was right outside the window), but other than that I have no complaints.

Overall, it was pretty good, but there are two things I'd like to mention. First, the soundproofing in the room isn't great. I could hear people moving around on the floors above and below – it sounded like there was a musical instrument training class downstairs, as I could hear drumming. I could also hear people walking in the hallway outside. Second, regarding the cleanliness of the common areas: while the trash on the tables was promptly cleared, the oily water stains left behind weren't cleaned up in time. I hope you can pay attention to these two points. Otherwise, I highly recommend everyone visit Xiamen!

The hostel is located in a small courtyard inside the Zeng Ancuo Scenic Area, essentially offering accommodation directly within the scenic area. A young man at the front desk greets you upon check-in. The beds are metal frame beds, but the mattresses are too hard and thin, making them uncomfortable to sleep on. I recommend a nearby restaurant called Wulan Shacha Noodles; the broth is rich, flavorful, and delicious.

Traveling solo to Fuzhou, and it was my first time staying in a hostel. I stayed here for two days and had a great experience! 😄 The dorm was very clean, and the environment was cozy and comfortable. Doing laundry and using the washrooms was super convenient. By chance, it was almost Chinese New Year, and the landlady personally cooked dumplings for the guests. Before I left, she even packed breakfast for me. This is a truly excellent hostel.

The people who run the place are super lovely and helpful. When I arrived I was welcomed right away with tea and later some snacks. And I got a detailed description of how to get to the nature park, complete with buses and everything, customized to the length of my stay. Even if I can't speak Chinese, the people were super nice and always tried to help. My room was comfy, usually quiet and clean. I had a nice view towards the pond area and while the hostel is located a bit further from the City center, you can go there super quick by taking the bus, where the station is just a short walk from the hostel. The bathroom however was not super clean, but it worked for me and I really enjoyed my stay and even extanded it by two nights. Thank you so much for the great experience! :)

This was my first time staying in a hostel, and overall it was great. Of course, you meet some rather…peculiar people. The owner of the shoes was even more difficult and 'flavorful' than her shoes. Let's call her – The Upstairs Bunk Double-Standard Dorm Monitor, and here's the story: “I arrived at the hostel a little after 11 PM. After my upstairs bunkmate and I both finished showering, we returned to our respective beds. I immediately started organizing the contents of my backpack, which were simple: clothes and disposable toiletries. The whole process took less than five minutes, but during this time, my bunkmate started making various impatient noises, expressing her displeasure with ‘you’re too loud’ and other small actions and sounds. I immediately put down what I was doing and lay down. Even then, she continued to toss and turn and grumble from above. To be honest, the car noises from outside the window and other people showering in the bathroom were much louder than any sound I made. Even after midnight, someone in the room made a phone call with their ringer on, and I didn't see her being so 'righteous' then (though I can't rule out the possibility that she was the one making the noise, as I really couldn't tell the difference). What's even funnier is that after she 'reminded' me, she herself was watching videos and laughing… Even funnier than her herself is that the Upstairs Bunk Double-Standard Dorm Monitor started her noisy ruckus the next morning around 6 AM. Her entire morning routine lasted twenty minutes, and the scene could be described as incredibly lively. Perhaps the Upstairs Bunk Double-Standard Dorm Monitor had a more important future to rush to, so she couldn't bother with her own double standards 🥹

There are many single-family villa hotels on Gulangyu Island, each with its own courtyard, which is very cozy. There's a teahouse and a swing in the courtyard, which the children love. The house is only two or three stories high and there's no elevator, but the owner will help with luggage. However, there's no ferry service, so you'll need to get to the hotel yourself. Fortunately, this hotel is close to Sanqiutian Pier, only a few minutes away. It's located behind the Athena Bar, and finding it can be difficult for a first-time visitor. I spent a while searching, but one side of the road was blocked and the door was locked, so I had to walk through the bar. The room was reasonably priced, and it had a window overlooking another villa hotel. While you can't see the sea or hear the piano, you can still hear the bar's resident singers at night. The tatami mats are against the wall, making it comfortable for children to sleep on. Other amenities are quite complete and clean. There's a public washing machine, so you can wash clothes there. The owner also provides a drying rack for hanging clothes in the courtyard on sunny days or in the room if it rains. The boss is pretty good, very kind and responsive.

Nice place with a very responding owner, never had to wait more than a minute to get a reply on WeChat. The place is hard to find but if you contact the owner on WeChat, he'll send you detailed instructions on how to find the place. The location is good, near a metro station and not far from the old French quarters. Many options for food just downstairs.

The owner take me to the another places at 13th floor (among 500 meters near the old place). In here very amazing, you can see the big square downside and firework. Have a lot of restaurant and supermarket around. Room is big, no smell, have hair dryer and boiling water. From airport, go by DiDi taxi ~20¥
