بيوت الشباب in هاي نان, الصين

I recently stayed for three nights in a private room at this hostel, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The bed was surprisingly comfy, which is a big plus for a hostel! The location is fantastic—just a few minutes' walk to the beach, making it easy to enjoy the sun and surf. The hostel features an onsite café/restaurant that serves western food; however, the dining area is outdoor seating only, and many guests smoke in the vicinity. It would be great if the hostel could provide a non-smoking eating area, especially since there’s no option to eat inside. I arrived after midnight and had to contact the hostel to be added on WeChat for my check-in, as the front desk isn’t open 24/7, so it’s something to keep in mind for late arrivals. The shower facilities were good, with complimentary shampoo and shower gel provided, but I noticed there was no hand soap at the sinks, which would have been a nice touch. The hostel also offers a washing machine and dryer for an extra fee, which is convenient for longer stays. During my time there, I spent my days at the beach and had a fantastic time at the Atlantis water park, which I highly recommend! Overall, this hostel is a solid choice for anyone looking for comfort and convenience near the beach, though some improvements in the dining area and check-in process would enhance the experience.
