Fodor's Review:

In 1980, the China Youth Travel Service set up this delightful courtyard hotel on the site of an old Qing Mandarin's residence. The traditional wooden entrance is guarded by two menshi (stone lions). Inside are five courtyards decorated with pavilions, rockeries, and greenery. Rooms are basic, with large windows. Though it calls itself an International Youth Hostel, the hotel has no self-service cooking facilities, but it has a reasonable Chinese restaurant. It's all about location here: you're in the middle of an ancient neighborhood, within walking distance to Houhai, and just a block away from many restaurants and delightful coffee shops on Nan Luogu Xiang.
