During our visit to China, we visited a number of backpackers' hostel and one of the few which I'd like to jot down as a memory is Wushanyi International Youth Hostel.
This hostel is strategically located at the heart of most touristy action near West Lake. It is only a walking distance to many eateries, cafes, souvenir shops and even boutiques located nearby.
The receptionists are generally very helpful and you can even go ahead to do some local tour bookings via the hostel.
Here's an area where most of the backpackers would hang out at night with other backpackers, playing board games or just to relax and chill with a drink.
Among the many little props that I like at the hostel includes this calendar. How simple and elegant it looks, clearly warming the heart of a traveler like me.
If you bring your laptop along, you could also make full use of the wifi (which is also available in the room) to get some work done. Otherwise, if it's all about holidays, blog about it on your site on the go! The book rack is also filled with books donated by travelers who resided at the hostel previously.
The rooms are generally quite basic, but most important factor is cleanliness. To the western travelers, do note that some accommodation in China may not have the usual flushing system in the toilet. Some places may require you to dump your toilet paper in a separate waste basket put next to the toilet bowl to avoid clogging. However, this hostel uses the normal flushing system in its toilet so fret not!
