I only spent two nights total in Wada Hostel, but that was enough to convince me to stay there if I ever returned. The rooms were fine for a hostel, but the staff and environment make it the place to stay. The people were very friendly and extremely helpful, and the common spaces in the hostel were comfortable, stylish, and... More

Nice hostel, very helpful people, good food and good location. The barbecue on Friday was also great to meet nice and open-minded people from all over the world. So far the best hostel I had in China.

stayed only one night to be fair. the rooms were comfortable enough and the girls at the front desk were very helpful and friendly. my only gripe is with the food. i had the swiss breakfast which was toast, cheese, and muesli. the muesli was just soggy oatmeal. the cheese was processed and plastic~like, still in the plastic slice wrapper....

We had a great time staying at Wada! We were in a double and picked up the YHA card for 50RMB, which has saved us a lot going round other parts of China! BBQ night is fantastic and really is all you can eat, i lost count of how much i ate! Place is spotless and staff are super friendly... More

What an amazing hostel! Great staff and the perfect place to meet other travellers. They helped me organise an overnight stay to the rice terraces with two guys I met at the hostel, plus a boat trip up the Li River. They couldn't have been friendlier! The hostel is a short bus ride from the centre but it's very straightforward... More

Friendly staff, clean rooms and excellent location. We were there on Dumpling Mondays and enjoyed making and eating the dumplings =) They allowed us to leave our baggage there for about 5 days for free so we really appreciated that!!

We stayed at Wada hostel and opted for a double private with en-suite. The hostel is well located just a 10 minute walk or 3 stops on the number 10 bus from the train station. It is also just across the road from a large shopping centre, the botanical gardens and a cinema. The staff were very helpful and although... More

Wada hostel is located a little way out of the city, but the bus is only 1yuen and really easy to use. The staff were really helpful at telling us how to get around. We live in Guangxi where there's no western facilities at all so the opportunity to hang out in a bar and play a game of pool... More

Thank you so much for your review! We are however very sorry about our "Mona Lisa". We did not expect our staff to do such a good job with the painting. The next time return, we will make sure you get the room with the giving tree. =) More

Stayed in a private double ensuite room for 110 yuan with hostel membership card. If your budget is less than 150 yuan room per night, i would recommend this place. It is not the best hostel i've experienced mostly in europe so far, but yes, i admit that this one is much cheaper than those eu hostels. Pros. - Fun... More
