"This youth hostel is very convenient for self-check-in. The boss's prompt is very clear, you can understand the check-in process if you want to recognize the text and map! Exit Kunming North, walk 200 meters to the community, very convenient. The downstairs of the community is very lively, open a variety of small shops, a wide range of goods, 13 yuan fast food to eat, a variety of desserts, fried rice, noodle shops have... The Internet cafe is a bit expensive, the hall is 9 yuan an hour... The youth hostel wants to live in a 4-person Xinglan room, clean, one bedroom and one bathroom. Good luck, I can live in one room alone, I am lucky, other rooms are almost full, I live in the room alone, sleep very sweet. Let me say it first, the living room is small, this youth hostel man's Xinglan room is very good, but I have a general eye for other rooms. Even if the eight-person room is crowded, it is not sure what people are meeting. It costs ten yuan to live in a comfortable place."

Renovated in 2024, the Anzhi · Tinglan Women's Boutique Guesthouse Hostel (Kunming Old Street) is a great choice for accommodation in Kunming. With Kunming Railway Station just 5km away and Kunming Changshui International Airport only 26km away, transportation is very convenient. Transportation around the city is also convenient, with Dongfeng Square Metro Station within walking distance. Keeping busy is easy, with Qianwang Street, Yunnan Tea Culture Museum and Majia Courtyard all nearby. At the end of a busy day, travelers can unwind and relax in the hotel or go out and enjoy the city. According to our guests, this hotel provides a very high level of service. This hotel is a popular accommodation for guests traveling alone.

"The first time the Youth Hostel held the mentality of trying it out, far exceeding expectations, the whole woman was clean and tidy, and the girls were of high quality. The boss is very organized, and the precautions for various small posts are maintained. Just around the old street, go out and go shopping. I gave me a big bonus for the first time in Kunming, and I temporarily continued with the boss for two nights. The boss was very careful. Already recommended to relatives and friends. Looking forward to seeing you again ~"

GGuanguanjujiu,zaihezhizhou😊I watched the young lady change the sheets and quilt covers for every bed that checked out. It was so hard! The sheets and quilt covers are made of pure cotton, white and odorless, and the price-performance ratio is very good. You can check in with confidence. Hygiene and safety are very important when you are away from home. The young lady will also remind me to lock the door at night and pay attention to safety. When I need help, the young lady is also enthusiastic and quick-hearted, which makes me feel very warm! What else can I complain about at this price. I am very lucky to be able to stay in this hotel. I am very happy to meet such an easy-going young lady. After the end of this trip, my heart is still warm when I think about it. I wish Miss Mei Ni good health, good luck, prosperous business, and good people in the new year. 🌹

AAmy HannahI stayed in a private room here and it was great. The room was quiet, clean & comfy. Special mention goes to the AMAZING view out the window as the hostel is on the 23rd floor! And the private room has a terrace/balcony thing. The communal area was very spacious and lots of desk space and sofas and stuff. Washing facilities too but I didn't use them! There is a refillable drinking water station - hot and cold water. Great location - 10 minute walk to the very bustling street food market! About a ten minute walk to the nearest metro station. My only gripe was the bathrooms - or lack thereof. There were only 2 bathrooms which were shower/toilet combos, which for a pretty well attended hostel means a fair bit of waiting around to use them. You have to be tactical about when you go! And because they were communal they weren't super clean, but I guess that is to be expected - just something to be aware of if you're squeamish. There's plenty of slippers to be had (in fact, outdoor shoes aren't allowed in the hostel at all!)

KKa-LaLaLaIt is our own fault but we did not realise that this was so far out of the city and at the entrance gate of a cultural Stockade. The host was helpful but there was a bit of an odour from the bathroom.  if your purpose to stay here is to see the cultural stock then this would be a good location but there are no restaurants nearby.  There was a nice view from our window of the lake and some beautiful traditional architecture to walk around and see in the area.

GGuest UserGreat hostel! I felt like I got the royal treatment when I was there simply because I'm a rare foreign guest. Well, I'll take the privilege 😅. So in my particular case, from the moment I arrived they rolled out the red carpet. I made friends with the receptionist and we went to have dinner together right away lol. This never happened to me before haha. It was very nice. Then I was included in all kinds of social activities during my 4 day stay. We had lunch together with the owner, a very jovial guy, the receptionist and some random guests. It was very pleasant. We also went out for free clubbing and to the night market. Absolutely non commercial activities where we simply hung out as friends. Very cool! Definitely enriched my experience in Kunming by a lot. The facilities themselves were good. Everything was clean. It's a little bit cramped up in the apartment that's been made into dorms but it's ok because everyone is very considerate. There's only one bathroom so sometimes that can be annoying. It's a very high quality bathroom tho. I would definitely stay again for the atmosphere and the convenience of the location.

GGuest UserThis hostel is really great and the boss is good. I highly recommend everyone especially foreigners to make contact with the boss prior to arriving so you don’t get lost like me🤣🤣. I called the boss via trip.com app, and he replied to me straight away. He is very good at responding and quickly helped me. The hostel is thoroughly cleaned and has a kitchen. The location is great. The boss also recommended me some places I can visit in Kunming.

MMingyuA hotel with a very folk-style environment, it is relatively clean in a village, and behind it is the folk customs. It takes less than 10 minutes to walk from the village to Dianchi Lake. The whole feeling is surrounded by strong ethnic culture. It is a good travel experience. It is also close to eating, and there are more famous ethnic restaurants nearby.

GGuest UserA very, very good stay experience. The boss is a very kind person. He patiently answered all the big and small questions one by one. It is very, very good! In terms of the environment, it is very, very, very clean. There are volunteers cleaning every day. The boss said that the volunteers are very good in all aspects. Clean carefully. The bathroom is also very clean, white and bright with no peculiar smell! The roommates I met are all very friendly and quality people! When I traveled to Kunming this time, I felt a lot of goodwill and enthusiasm, and I ate a lot of delicious food. I want to cry when I think about leaving here and going back to a food desert. It’s so comfortable that I don’t even want to leave here! Thank you very much to the boss for giving me a particularly good experience of staying in a hostel! I’ll come back next time!

MMery beI really liked the location, and the hotel offers convenient airport pickup and drop-off. The owner personally came to pick me up, which was a nice touch. While the room isn’t fancy obviously you might expect from the price however it was clean, neat, and perfect for a layover or short stay. As a foreigner, I would definitely recommend this hotel.”

PPriscila R FreitasLocation is good you can see the railway station from the window. The room itself is clean and meets our needs, but the walls it shares with the other rooms are plaster, which allows you to hear every noise. The worst part, however, is the bathroom and sinks. The bathroom smells awful, it seems like it's never cleaned, and the individual stalls don't have doors. Towels are also not provided.
