One Night and One Summer Youth Hostel

Great hostel with comfortable location, friendly staff and good price. I was staying here many times and I'll visit this place in future definitely.

Albeit the hostel is nearby the Kunming Railway Station, it’s quite hard to navigate to the right destination since it’s a complex of apartment buildings. Since I arrive early in the morning just after my night train, my calls to the host numbers kept hitting voicemails, I struck luck that the security guard helped me to find the exact location and wait at the entrance door downstairs. It’ll be best if you phone the host directly since they could speak basic English. To enter the building itself, you’ll either need to wait for someone or there’s an alternative which will be explained by the host. I think there are multiple units, but the one that I was assigned to, the run-down hostel is unkempt and has foul smells from the bedsheets, I couldn’t pinpoint what it was. The common area is cluttered with a lot of unused items like exercise books and curved monitor. The balcony has a scenic view of Kunming city, so that’s a great save. Though my stay was just for mere few hours, smells kept hitting my nose like a juggernaut especially the only bathroom, with its toilet bowl stained with poop and I felt like puking. For a 38RMB stay, it’ll be better to spend a bit more for somewhere proper.

The second night i saw no one except Some day guests who pay just for a couple hours, or the day.

Its perfect to stay there may be little cozy but good to stay in a bit

Friendly and helpful staff but not a real hostel, just beds in an appartment. I had problems finding it but the friendly staff helped.
