The staff here were fantastic and very welcoming.

It's chilly in winter, air conditioning is hot. water temperature in the shower is not well regulated.

Reasonably good breakfasts, the stay was such great!

Greatly enjoyed Beijing, the hotel was quiet little very near the subway. The room was functional and cheap; the bed was lovely. A shower and a hairdryer were a plus.

My stay at 161 Wangfujing was absolutely fantastic! The location was perfect, situated in a great hutong with a delicious roast duck restaurant right across the street. The staff were incredibly helpful and available 24 hours a day, and they even spoke English, which was a huge plus. The private room I stayed in was clean, comfortable, and had heating to keep me cozy. Another bonus was the late checkout time of 2pm, which made my stay even more convenient. Plus, it was easy to explore the nearby main streets on foot or take a cheap cab ride to central Beijing. I highly recommend this hotel for its great location, cleanliness, and helpful staff.

The only minor drawback was that I wish they had mentioned in the email or sent a reminder beforehand that a 200 deposit in cash was required. But aside from that, my stay was perfect.

the friendly staff, cleanliness and central location.

sometimes overly concerned with following the rules; sometimes lack of sense of privacy (i.e. touching and removing stuff from our room while being away)

The staff is friendly and speaks English.

It's all right.

This hotel is a gem hidden in the bustling streets of Beijing. Located in a charming hutong area, it offers a peaceful retreat from the city. The rooms are clean and comfortable, with a variety of bed options available. The staff is friendly and attentive, always ready to assist with any requests. The breakfast, included in the price, offers a good selection of choices to start the day off right.

No improvements needed, everything was great!

Staff is very nice and helpful, location is good, near the subway and bus station.

toilet's lighting is a little bit dark, hot water of the shower is quite unstable.

Center, near the public transport stops.

It's not quite clean.

This place is conveniently located near a subway station and has comfortable beds.

good location, low budget accomodation, chance to experience Hutong style living, staffs are on the whole friendly and helpful.

in future to provide bath towels.

The room was ok, a bit small but comfortable. The staff was nice and helpful. There were 2 shared computers with internet connection at the reception. Also many shops and small restaurants near the hostel. Tours and train/plain tickets can be booked directly at the hostel.

Only chinese channels on TV. The location is not very central, there is a 15-20 minutes walk to the Forbidden City from the hostel.

This hotel is a great value for money. The location in a local neighborhood near two subway stations is perfect for exploring the major attractions in Beijing. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the rooms are basic but clean and comfortable. The breakfast has good choices.

No negative aspects - all was great!

Fairly clean place in Chinese style with all necessary facilities. Fast check-in, parking by the hotel. Late check out. Magnificent and perfect location near a mosque and a temple. Simply no complaints whatsoever, GOOD stay.

Very ordinary area.

Good value for money (basic but cheap), great location, and friendly staff.
