Yining City Hotels with Kitchens

"It's 2 AM, and I can't sleep after writing this review in the courtyard, so I just got up and sat here. The night in Liuxing Street is so quiet, with only occasional dog barks and distant lights. The moon hangs above the apple tree. I've stayed at this hostel for three days and will be leaving tomorrow. There are some things I want to write down before I forget. First, let's talk about hygiene. I have a peculiar habit: the first thing I do when entering a room is to feel the tabletop and windowsill. And truly, it was spotless. The floor is wood-grain tile, and walking barefoot on it felt perfectly clean. The bedding was freshly changed and smelled warm, like it had been sun-dried. There wasn't a single hair on the public restroom floor, and the trash cans weren't emptied only when overflowing. What touched me most was that the cups in the wash area were placed upside down in a sterilizer cabinet, for guests to use. Yes, a sterilizer cabinet. Location: It's in an alley in Liuxing Street, but very easy to find. Turn right out of the door, and a small alley leads directly to the main street. To the left is an old residential area, perfect for aimless wandering. It's about seven or eight minutes' walk to the Alexander Accordion Museum and also to the famous ice cream shop. If you, like me, enjoy walking and exploring small alleys, this place is a paradise. There are three bus stops nearby, making it convenient to go to Kaxgar and Hanren Street. Service: The front desk staff was a girl with a ponytail, and her voice was soft. It was drizzling when I arrived on the first day, and she handed me a dry towel to wipe my hair. When I came back late at night, I found a message on the small blackboard at the entrance: 'There's yogurt in the fridge, help yourself.' I thought it was for a fee, but when I asked the next day, she smiled and said, 'It's free, we worry you might get overheated in this weather.' When I left, I forgot my power bank, and she chased me down two alleys. Facilities: The beds are incredibly stable; the bunk beds don't wobble. Each bunk has a curtain, a light, two power outlets, and a small shelf, perfect for a phone and glasses. The common area has a water dispenser (with both hot and cold water), a microwave, a refrigerator, and a toaster. There's also a washing machine that can be used by scanning a QR code. The most pleasant surprise was a small bookshelf with not many books, but a few picture books about Ali, which made me want to visit Mount Kailash as I flipped through them. Atmosphere: Unlike some hostels that deliberately force social interaction, the atmosphere here is very natural. In the evening, someone played the Dombra in the courtyard, while others just listened quietly. There was an older gentleman who had just returned from a pilgrimage, his feet still swollen, sitting on the steps drinking sweet tea, and no one disturbed him. Occasionally, people would strike up a conversation, also in soft voices. I'm sitting in the courtyard now, and the evening breeze is a little cool. The moon is bright, and I can see the shadows of the clouds. I'll probably feel a bit reluctant to leave tomorrow. But it's okay; I know I'll be back. The night of Liuxing Street, the dream of Mount Kailash, and the gentleness of this little courtyard all remind me why I'm always on the road."

"The hotel has a good location, close to the city center, convenient transportation; elegant environment, very quiet at night; the room is fully equipped, the stay is very warm, the bathroom is dry and wet; the boss is handsome and cool, the service is warm and thoughtful!"

"I score 6 out of 5. The room was beautifully decorated and clean, and my parents were very satisfied. Quiet, good for sleep. I heard that the rooftop can also see the Tianshan Mountain on both sides of Yining. I arrived late at night and was unwell, because it was the old town. I couldn't get a taxi for half an hour on the side of the road. I discussed with the landlord and drove us to the doctor and buy medicine. I was very intimate to help us find a shop for porridge. The next morning, I also sent the plane. Thank you for saving my life, I hope I have a chance to come again hahaha 😉"

"The beautiful pictures of this homestay caught my attention and I was determined to check it out. It did not disappoint me, the actual property looks just as beautiful, though the garden would probably need more plants. The vicinity was quiet and I enjoyed hanging out at the patio at night. Yining is quite small so taking a cab to get to the tourist spots is not a problem at all. The staff were helpful with my luggage. I will not hesitate to recommend this homestay."

"My wife couldn't connect to the room. There was no disposable bag in the bathtub. It was said to be sterilized, but I still felt a little uncomfortable so I didn't take a bath. I hope there is a disposable bag to put on it to make it easier to use. It was not easy to get into the water, so I had to wait for a long time before getting out of the water."

"Friends with limited budgets close their eyes! The price/performance ratio of this youth travel is really a tens of dollars to live in a room with windows. The lighting is very good. Every morning, I am awakened by the sun and super healing. The most intimate is the public facilities: 24 hours hot water never used, washing machine and dryer are free to use, the front desk can also store luggage for free, I went to the street for a whole day after checking out, and there was no need to drag the box. 5 minutes walk around is the snack street, eating and traveling are super convenient,"

"Full score recommendation! The single-door courtyard parking is super convenient, very close to the airport and train station, and the transfer is super worry-free in ten minutes. It is also very close to Liuxing Street. The street is the night market. Barbecues and special snacks are all available. It is quiet in the middle of noisy. The small courtyard is quiet and comfortable. It is too suitable to live here in Yining!"

"The room is on the first floor and has a small courtyard with a very recognizable appearance. It's not big, but it has complete facilities, especially the bathroom and shower area, which are quite large and comfortable. It's right on Liuxing Street, so you can't drive directly there, but the owner is very thoughtful and booked a parking space in advance to help with luggage."

"整體入住體驗十分舒心。酒店地理位置優越，出行遊玩購物都很方便。客房乾淨整潔，床鋪柔軟舒適，採光通風效果都不錯。前台工作人員態度熱情友善，辦理入住退房效率很高。衞浴設施齊全，熱水供應穩定，日常洗漱起居都很便利。性價比可觀，服務貼心周到，下次出行還會選擇這家。 還可以，民宿老闆服務很周到，性價比拉滿！"

"As someone from Guangdong, I've finally found an accommodation that I approve of in every aspect! The room is super spacious, has a kitchen and a washing machine. It's spotlessly clean, not a speck of dust anywhere, and all the facilities are complete. Most importantly, the floor is tiled, which makes it visibly clean. I wouldn't dare stay in a place with carpets, who knows how dirty they might be! The landlord here is from Hunan, and she's incredibly warm and hospitable, even providing gas for guests to cook. There's a big courtyard where the bed linen is hung out to dry in the sun every day, so you can sleep soundly. Parking is convenient, and it's close to Liuxing Street. Because of the excellent environment, I stayed an extra night, and it felt just as comfortable and convenient as being at home. It's great value for money. The shower room even has a rack for clothes, which is something other places don't offer – very convenient. The showerhead provides a strong spray and heats up quickly."
