I've just come back from a week's trip introducing some friends to Xining and Qinghai, and we stayed at the Lete; the first night in a basic 2 bed room , the rest of the week in a suite. It's the first time in 5 years that I've been back to this city, and the biggest disappointment to me was... More

very good Location close to the Center and in a high Building. The youth Hostel is located at 15th and 16th Floor with a fantastic View of Xining, especially the Stadium. All sort of Rooms and Dormitaries are available. Think to book during the high Season (June July August) because the Hostel is full quickly. I paid a Bed in... More

Great American food and accommodations! A little reluctant on food orders at times, but genuinely kind staff and nice facilities. As with just about any hotel in China, it seems (unless you stay at the 4+ star hotels in the big, eastern cities) they don't quite get "finishing the job". Lots of detail work to clean and finish rooms. But... More

This was a great place to stay-- wonderful staff, comfortable and clean hostel, and a great location. The staff I talked to was very comfortable with English and helpful in providing information. It's an easy walk to stores and restaurants around, and there are a few bars on the street as well. It's a very popular place for lots of... More

But we had a really bad experience with the owner, who actually spoke about us to her staff in Chinese right in front of us. She didn't want the... More

Good location, good staff, interesting lay out, but a little dirty and unmaintained.

We came to Lete to find some people talking english. We found excelente staff very helpfull, with english knowledge and local trip advises. We stayed in the suit, it was better than we expested, clean and comfort;. The maneger of the hostel, Jean is a very special women, she made our time to be unforgotten. We will be back...........

We stayed at the lete for 4 nights. The first two were spent in a private double with ensuite. The bedroom felt unclean and the ensuite was horrible, the basin had little bits of hair from men's shaving, the toilet would not flush and the shower was disgusting and smelt. there were also electric wires for the hot water service...

There was 3 of us staying here and the receptionist was nice enough to give us the 4 bed dorm exclusively. The dorm rooms have 2 bunk beds and lockers but NO LOCKS! Reason given was that guests kept losing their keys. Hence, I enquired about having the room to ourselves. Beds are hard, so very hard. Dorm beds start... More
