2-Star Hotels in Xinjiang, China

The location is not on the side of the road, very quiet, the first floor is the Youth Hostel bed, the second floor is the room, 200 meters away is the food street, easy to eat. In Ta County, it is very cost-effective. The boss and the two sisters are very good. The room is equipped with an oxygen generator and a humidifier. In fact, the altitude of 3200 is generally not used. The oxygen generator is generally not used, but it will be very safe if it is equipped.

I was hesitant before booking this place because it's far from the city center but close to the train station. However, taxis in Yining are incredibly easy to hail and super cheap! (I usually take public transport whenever possible, but Xinjiang, apart from Urumqi's Line 1, doesn't have a subway, and buses are hard to wait for, though you can if you're patient. This Backpacker's Ten Years hostel is also close to a bus stop.) I don't know if I was just lucky, but all seven or eight times I took a taxi, it was a female driver, and the cars all smelled great – it made the whole experience fantastic. The exterior of this Backpacker's Ten Years hostel is designed like a 'Red Dust Inn' (a style of ancient Chinese inn). The common areas are incredibly spacious, with billiards, computers, projection screens, TVs, and a pair of super friendly cats. The bed was enormous, I'd say 1.5m (I'm not sure if that's exact, but I was genuinely shocked when I first saw it). It was off-season, and I booked a 10-bed dorm. The front desk lady said if the bottom bunks in the 10-bed dorm were full, she'd put me in a bottom bunk in an 8-bed dorm, which was a nice gesture. The bathroom had plenty of hooks and a waterproof curtain, which was great. I didn't wash any large items of clothing since it was winter, so I can't comment on the drying area.

Nice quiet hostel where it is easy to relax. The bed is comfy, no gas to cook but there is hot water a microwave and a few other appliances you can use. It's a bit away from the ancient city but there are plenty of other shopping streets nearby. I left my bike outside the door because it's a very safe area. There were some very friendly people in the hostel who helped me navigate the Chinese way of doing things. It's really good value staying here, would recommend. Message them if you have difficult finding the place.

The room is spacious and bright, with complete supplies, bottled water, and filtered water in the aisle. The service is good and polite, and the mattress is soft and comfortable. Free parking at the door is very convenient. The carpet should be replaced

The location is good; there are many restaurants to the right after you go downstairs. Transportation is convenient; there's an airport shuttle bus right downstairs. The room is clean and hygienic, with unique decor and relatively complete facilities. The only drawback is that the TV doesn't have internet settings enabled, so you can't cast your favorite content and programs. This seems to be a common problem with hotels in Korla; I've stayed at several hotels in Korla this year, and none of them seem to have screen casting functionality.

Positive reviews: This stay was fantastic! The room was clean and tidy, fully equipped, the bedding was comfortable, and the staff was friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be back next time. The hotel is in a prime location, making it convenient for travel. The room was pleasant and soundproofed, and the value for money was excellent. I highly recommend it! The service was incredibly attentive, including a small gift upon check-in. The room was warmly decorated, the facilities were new, and I felt very comfortable staying there.

Compact, but very comfortable and modern room. Plenty of food options around and the classy Wanda Plaza mall just across the road. Very helpful front desk staff. Some foreign travellers might find it a little hard to find because there are quite a few small hotels in the same tall building- it's just a matter of walking around the building to find the entrance (in Chinese above the doorway).

Welcoming, fun and central place to stay near Liuxing Street! The owner speaks English well and is super friendly and interesting. His love for travel and his culture is displayed around the hostel with the beautiful and quirky decor, and it is easy to see that lots of love and thought went into this place. His family were around and they are lovely too. They gave me a free coconut coffee which was delicious! The female shared room was clean and modern, with a comfortable bed with a curtain. There was a  cupboard for each bed. There is a little shared kitchen which had a fridge/freezer, a hot water dispenser and things for cooking and eating (although I didn’t cook there). The shared female toilets had a few toilets and a few shower stalls - a down side for me was the toilets are all squat toilets and there was no toilet paper when I was there so I had to bring my own (maybe I did not see it, I did not ask). There were shared living spaces where you could sit at the tables and chairs, an outdoor courtyard area with a nice little garden, a lovely quiet reading room area with the owner’s books, and a rooftop area with tents. It’s a really cool, international place. I would love to come back again.

The location of this hotel is very good. I recommend booking a room for those who are flying in transit and who will be in the city of Urumqi for a few days. There is a subway station 800 meters away, and there are several halal restaurants near the hotel. There is also a free luggage storage service. The hotel has WiFi, air conditioner.

This stay was fantastic! The receptionist was warm and efficient; check-in took less than 5 minutes, and she even thoughtfully provided information on nearby restaurants and sightseeing routes. The room was clean and tidy, with freshly changed sheets and blankets. The natural light and ventilation were excellent, and you could see the street view just by opening the curtains. The bathroom had plenty of hot water with stable pressure, and the toiletries were of high quality. The hotel breakfast had a wide variety of options, both Chinese and Western, with a full range of hot and cold dishes, and the taste was superb. The location is excellent; the bus stop is just a few minutes' walk away, making getting around incredibly convenient. I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm in the area!
