Hostels in Guizhou, China

This is one of the best hostels I ever stay. The location was a bit difficult to find as it's located on the third floor of the building, which you could not see from the walking pavement. But the hostel was very clean and full of amenities. There were lots of common spaces and activities in the hostel. I found that getting on the bus is more convenient than the metro because the bus stops were closer. The room was nice and safe. For a girl, traveling alone is safe to stay here.

When you come to Anshun, it is really worth staying at Guiyang Yifang Youth Hostel! The location is right next to Anshun Ancient City, making it convenient for visiting attractions and finding snacks. The Youth Hostel lobby is very large. You can rest on the sofa when you are tired and chat with other guests. It doesn’t feel stuffy at all. The boss's sister is very enthusiastic. When asked about places for fun and delicious food, she will tell you in detail. The rooms and public areas are kept clean, making it very comfortable to live there. The price is also affordable, cost-effective, worth it!

The hostel is super close to the Guizhou Nationalities Museum, just across the street. It's located in a building, but be warned, you have to go around to the back of the building to find the elevator. I tried calling the owner when I arrived, but they didn't answer, so I had to ask around – a bank employee and then the building's security guard – before I finally found it. The women's restroom has two or three stalls, which was enough; I rarely had to wait. The showers are inside the restrooms, and yes, they're quite small. The distance to Jiaxiu Tower is a bit awkward – too far to walk comfortably, but a very short bus ride. It's the same situation for the high-speed rail station. The biggest advantage is having the museum right downstairs. It's a fantastic museum! I took the elevator straight to the 8th floor to start, then descended to the 4th, 3rd, and 2nd floors to explore, finally exiting from the second floor. In front of the museum is an imposing statue of Chairman Mao. There's also a huge drum nearby, but unfortunately, it wasn't open. I only stayed in Guiyang for one day, heading to the train station the next morning. The night view of Jiaxiu Tower is absolutely stunning; I lingered there, captivated! It was super crowded with tourists, really packed. Unfortunately, I arrived too late and couldn't go inside Jiaxiu Tower. Well, there are always some regrets, right? I also visited Yangming Temple (Yangming Ci). There are two temples and one monastery; I didn't go to the monastery on the mountaintop. I met a lovely woman there by chance, and we took lots of photos for each other. Many people go there just to take pictures.

It's not bad. The boss is very nice. The food they recommend is delicious. There are also many delicious foods nearby, such as mutton rice noodle and beef rice noodle, both are good. The boiled cat is also recommended. There are a few cats, and the boss said they are adopted stray cats, which is good.

We stayed at the boss's house for three days on the recommendation of a friend. The boss and his family were very nice and they had a lot of luggage, so we had to carry it all for us. The boss's house is high up in the stockade, with a 360-degree view of the whole stockade. The scenery is better and quieter than living below. In the past three days, I have tasted the boss's menu all over. I am a picky Sichuanese and I think the craftsmanship is so good. I have three meals a day at the boss's place. Even when I go down the mountain to play, my family will not eat anything from outside. Come back and eat the boss's food. Every morning I wake up to the crowing of the rooster, go for a walk in the fields, and eat a bowl of the boss’s tomato scrambled egg noodles. Both husband and wife are hard-working people. We are grateful for meeting each other and wish the business a prosperous future!

The front desk staff were all excellent. I didn't get pictures of the nice young man and woman I interacted with often, but the young man was incredibly patient. He really went out of his way to help me with my check-in issues. My roommate kept getting up in the middle of the night and making a lot of noise opening and closing the door, which disturbed my sleep. I ended up having to switch rooms three times, but the young man never showed any sign of annoyance, which was very heartwarming.

The room is clean and the boss is nice, but some of the people staying here have very poor manners. They don't listen to what the boss says and play games until after 3am, making a lot of noise. When I tell them to keep their voices down, they even curse at me. It's really annoying.

The owner was extremely helpful and friendly. He suggested for me to add his Wechat so I could ask him anything if wanted. He patiently answered my questions about how to visit some of the nearing sights and even offered to pick me up if he I could didn't find any transportation to come back. He organized a dinner with some other guests and he invited me. He had some very interesting stories to tell about his travels. I would 100% recommend this place. The location is great too.

The location is excellent, transportation is convenient, and there are abundant food and shopping nearby. The room is clean and tidy. I recommend staying here!

The location is very easy to find, and if you contact them in advance before entering the ancient town, you can even avoid paying for tickets. The owner is very welcoming, the decor is cozy, it's clean and hygienic, and very warm. Highly recommend staying here!
