26.05.23I forgot to request a lower level room. We were given room in 5th floor and going up and down is a challenge specially with luggages. Location is great though, just a 5min walk to shopping district. Room is a bit tight. If you’re looking for a budget room, you can book this. Otherwise, just go for a hotel.
26.05.23Probably, the only thing lacking is a shelf where you can put your stuff esp if you are in the upper bed. Well there is, but the size is as big as your palm. I can barely move because some of my things are in the bed.
26.05.19You'll definitely see the price you pay for this accommodation. I spent a lot of time in their common lounge where you can eat and work as well.
There are washing machines and a dryer in the area. A common fridge, induction stove and rice cooker. Wifi is not reliable inside the rooms, though. The staff are extremely nice and helpful.
A few outlets only in the lounge, though. Another minor drawback I saw was the lack of elevator. If you have heavy luggage, you'll need to carry them to your floor. There are no bidets in this building, by the way. Don't forget your wet wipes.
Overall, the stay was still worth-it.
26.05.13No drama! It exists perfectly for budget travels.
26.05.13Had a great stay with Backpackers Hostel, it was near any key locations in Ximen, close to 7/11 and family mart as well. Staff were very helpful with our questions and they did their best to assist us with transportation inquiries. The only downside was our room was in 5th floor, it was a hike every time we went to our room as they have no elevators however we did knew that from the get go.
Would recommend!
