My Hangzhou Hostel Experience: Freshly Back & Utterly FUMING!

[Wayne Marvin]

I also went off-peak, stayed on the 29th. I picked it because it was close to Wulin Street and West Lake. Who knew it would be like this? When I checked in, I was in a hurry to drop my stuff and head out, so I didn't look closely. It wasn't until I came back at night to shower that I realized how bad everything was.

The better hostels I've stayed at were all 200 yuan a night during the May Day holiday.

[Lucille Borer]

May Day is just super expensive; prices go up everywhere. I went on the 29th.

My first time at 'Dugunai' (or 'Do Good Night') was genuinely the worst. The curtain on my assigned bunk was broken, and the bed was an absolute pigsty. I didn't even take my clothes off and didn't dare use the blanket.

The top bunk at the place I'm staying at doesn't even have a curtain!

[Madeline Hermann III]

Which one is it? Name and shame so we can avoid it!

Hangzhou Fulaiju Youth Hostel. It's over by Wulin Road!

When I was in Hangzhou before, I stayed at Lü Xiaoer. It was clean and not noisy.

Now that's what a proper hostel bed looks like. The one I'm in is just like a dorm bunk bed; the top bunk doesn't even have a curtain.

Youth hostels these days aren't what they used to be. They're mostly full of long-term residents.

[Dexter Cummerata]

This place is so bad it doesn't even have long-term residents anymore. The girl sharing my room messaged me yesterday saying everyone else had checked out.

[Miss Alison Collier]

Which hostel is it? I'll make a note. [Crying emoji] Domestic accommodation standards are really declining these days.

Fulaiju Youth Hostel, it's over by Wulin Road.

And then there's Kepler 🤮. If you want to experience being inexplicably berated by the front desk, I suggest Kepler. If you want a happy trip but end up feeling like you've eaten dirt because of how disgustingly you're treated during check-in and check-out in Hangzhou, then by all means, go experience Kepler.

[Kathryn Hermiston]
