Basic accommodation offering, you can’t expect too much.
You need to go outside for bathroom and shower. The hot water only last for couple minutes. And the button bunk bed is so small that as a 5”2 person I can’t even sit up in my bed.
Cheap but in general quite average.

It destroyed my good impression of youth hostels (I tried staying in Canberra and Christchurch for the first time and felt very good). It felt like a dormitory for illegal workers, and there was nothing except a very simple bed! The problem is that it cost nearly ¥900 per night! But the front desk staff was very good! 😄

It is relatively close to the city center and the beds are quite comfortable. However, there are many people during the peak tourist season. Some people have athlete's foot and the smell is not good. It depends on luck.

The experience is very bad. Don’t stay here. The public restrooms and bathrooms are all occupied by foreigners. They stay up until two or three o’clock in the middle of the night. It’s so noisy that I can’t sleep. Check out at 10 o’clock. At 9 o’clock, the aunt will clean the toilet and wait to leave. I couldn't even go to the bathroom, so I was speechless. I booked it in advance for more than 700 yuan, but the price was reduced by more than 500 yuan on the day. It was a scam every time.

Expected to be here for a week or two while I found a place but have stayed a month now and might just loge here over winter! The staff are lovely and are always available to help out or hang out, the facilities are decent and reliable (mostly), the people who live here long term - and the people dropping in for a weekend - hang out in the social areas and play board games/watch netflix by the fire. Beds have curtains and a light/USB/socket which is actually so helpful. Would highly recommend anyone visiting or moving to queenstown to stop over here :)
