The main plus about the hump is the location. It is a very big youth hostel with lots of foreign students who stay there for a few months. Because it is so big, it is not really a cozy place to meet people but more like a bar. Our room with shared bathroom was OK although very basic and boring.... More

Stayed here numerous times as a base to our travels in Yunnan. The hostel is conveniently located. Rooms are comfortable and very affordable. We stayed in a private double room for just 80RMB. The staff have very good English and knowledge about travelling in Yunnan and China. Nice relaxing atmosphere, with lovely seating outside to enjoy the sunshine. If you're... More

The location is great - in a lovely square, in the lively centre of town. The atmosphere is really good, and it's a great place to meet other travelers. The staff are helpful, especially with explaining and booking onward transportation. The beds in the dorm rooms are excellent and comfortable.

I found this place online and set it up for my arrival in China from India. First time. The instructions were clear, and despite speaking practically no mandarin, I managed to find the right string of busses to get to the hostel from the airport. What a gem! The beds were some of the best on my 13 month trip!... More

We chose to stay here as it was central and cheap and on these things it delivered. Unfortunately in other ways it was quite a let down - staff seemed disinterested at best and rooms were pretty grim (very clean though). In all I would say it delivers for a very basic hostel but I wish we had spent a... More

Bit of a trek from train station. Someone had agreed to meet us there but didn't show so we had to wing it on the bus! Eventually touching down, the staff apologised and we had to wait 30 mins for our room. In the meantime we checked emails and had some food. Must say, the bar is really nice! Internet... More

We only dropped in to this hostel for one night - literally 7 hours - but were very impressed with what we saw and wanted to stay longer. In fact we will definitely go back at some point. The reception is in large bar area. The decor is typical of a hippy traveller hostel and therefore very welcoming and warning.... More

We stayed here as a big group for over a week and it's a great location with heaps to do/see/eat nearby. The only downside was it's also a very noisy location and regardless of whether you've paid a little more for an ineffectively air conditioned room you'll still need windows open thus you better have packed some ear plugs, because...

I stayed in this hostel for five days. It's not bad, with a nice athmosphere. It's a bit more expensive though than advertised everywhere on the internet, and also some other things they promise everywhere on the internet are not provided. On every site I checked it says 'no curfew' and this is just a blunt lie. If you're not... More
