Wonderful, homely & stylish base on Xi'An walls
Pros:

Fabulous location, brilliant style, big room, easy-going staff. Everything exactly as a good inn should be. The rooftop area is an unexpected bonus, with great views of the Wall. What a great hotel all round

Cons:

The business next door is a Karaoke bar ... so sometimes you'll get a burst of bad singing at 11pm ... Nothing the hotel can do, but worth knowing about

Superb stay
Pros:

Excellent service and location

Cons:

Location is a double-edge sword. It’s very accessible, but is also near the bars, so can be loud at night.

Really wonderful place!
Pros:

The position is fantastic. Right next to the wall, near the metro, round the corner from the Forest of Steles museum. Staff really helpful booked us taxis and arranged everything. A very lively district. We totally loved this place - it has lots of character. Great roof terrace with amazing view of wall. Very laid back!

Cons:

We were warned by the staff well in advance but this is in a really lively area so ask if you want a quieter room. You will still hear the live music a bit but nothing that ear plugs won’t solve.

주변 바에서 나오는 소리만 아니면 완벽한 숙소
Pros:

방도 2개로 분리되어 있어서 가족여행으로 적합합니다.
화장실도 변기가 2개라서 아침에 화장실 이용에 매우 편리합니다.
위치는 남문성벽 바로 앞이라서 성벽을 가기도 편하고 지하철에서도 도보로 10분 이내입니다.

Cons:

주변에 바가 있는지 너무 늦은 밤까지 음악소리가 좀 시끄럽게 들립니다.

Pros:

The staffs were responsive during booking, and waited for us till the middle of the night for check-in. If we needed anything during our stay, they were also responsive to our messages.

The apartment is spacious and is located in a convenient location, with lots of food nearby. There are bars right below, but fortunately we got a unit that’s a little further away so it’s quiet at night.

A cleaner came to our apartment everyday to clean and replenish supplies. We also had access to their rooftop which gives a great view of the city and the city walls.

Cons:

I booked for 8 nights. But after my stay ended, they changed the booking to 1 night. I tried to reach out to them and customer support, but neither of them follow up on this. So I lost my genius rewards progression.

Einfache Unterkunft im top Lage
Pros:

Diese Wohnung liegt direkt über einem Pub, was wir aber vorher wussten und uns dementsprechend Ohrstöpsel mitgenommen haben. Für uns war die Lage top, da sie direkt an der Altstadt Mauer und ganz in der Nähe der Bars und Geschäfte liegt. Die Einrichtung ist einfach, aber dennoch gemütlich und chinesisch. Es gibt einen kleinen Balkon und ein Tee Zimmer. Für uns war die Wohnung (Changle) ideal, da wir als Familie zu viert hier wohnen konnten. Für eine Freundesgruppe ist sie sicherlich nicht optimal, da die Waschbecken frei im Flur sind und auch die Toilette nur eine Klapp Duschtür besitzt. An der Rezeption wird nur rudimentär Englisch gesprochen, was die Kommunikation erschwert. Bezahlen kann man auch nur mit Alipay oder WeChat!
Wir würden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen.

Cons:

In einem Zimmer ging die Klimaanlage nicht, was ich aus den Bewertungen schon gesehen hatte. Ich habe aber nicht bedacht, dass bei 10° die Klimaanlage auch zum Heizen verwendet wird. Somit war es in diesem Zimmer recht kalt

Ottima posizione e ottimo caffè
Pros:

Posizione comoda a qualche centinaia di metri dalla porta sud delle mura. Staff molto premuroso, mi hanno indicato esattamente come arrivare in struttura e come fare check-in in autonomia dato che sono arrivata a mezzanotte e la reception era chiusa. Nota positiva: fanno il migliore caffè espresso bevuto in Cina
