Beijing Yue Bin Ge Courtyard Hotel

The host was very nice and the location was amazing

Original Hotel

Comfort of the new

Parfait accueil, logement propre, très bonne localisation au cœur des hutongs, proche gare stratégique, je recommande.

The hotel has a really fun and traditional vibe. Almost hostel-like (and at times diy-ish), where travelers could meet and talk at the big courtyard tables! Our first room looked cosy and also had a window to the courtyard which was a plus to the light and the atmosphere. It also had the walls covered with a clear glass so that the traditional plaster could show off. The problem was a persisting smell which led us to change to a room with just a small overhead window with little natural light, but with no smell. Which was fine after all. * The room had an air-conditioning unit which helps a ton, with the Beijing heat! (On the dates we stayed, the temperature reached 35ºC!). * The hosts speak english, and are willing to help and provide extra information which is a huge bonus - also we asked for an early check out at 05:30 in the morning and the staff accepted it without any fuss! * The hotel is located near the best food streets in Beijing (Ping'Anli street and Huguosi St), one should really check out! * The Ping'Anli metro station is located at a 10 minute walking distance, which serves lines 4 & 6!

* One should be aware of the beds, because the mattresses are extra thin. * We constantly had to ask for toilet paper which was not provided with the cleaning of the room. * The bathroom curtain was a real mess, ripped and touching the bathroom floor making it susceptible to moisture. * We found a cockroach in the room and had to ask to have the room cleaned and the rubbish bin emptied regularly.
