Tiny Spots Youth Hostel is a small and comfortable place conveniently located conveniently located in the city center, a few steps away from the Sports Center subway station along the Red line. Just 500meters away is the Small Pagoda. From the 21st floor, where the backpackers place is at, one can have views of the Drum Tower 钟楼 , the small pagoda, the Shaanxi Historical Museum and other views of the Tao Gu area.
As soon as I got inside the backpackers place, I felt comfortable with the spaciousness and tidiness. A decently large living room sits various furnitures, ensuring space for backpackers who want to watch the television, play video games, or just lounge around on the sofa. There are also working spaces for those who wish to find a place to use the laptop or read. Soft music can be heard filling the place. Water is free for all; snacks, tea and coffee are also available for all. There is adequate space in the large fridge for those who wish to store their food. Although the kitchen is not available to be used, they do offer a microwave to heat up food.
The rooms are clean and sparsely furnished. On my first night, i got a bunk in a room that had no windows, but the front desk staff initiated a bunk at another room that has a large window with better ventilation. I was pleased with his promptness. I stayed for two nights at this place.
Cleanliness is top notched. A.cleaner woman is usually there in the day for routine and prompt cleaning. Toilet tissue is always in ready supply. Bathrooms and toilet cubicles are shared among the genders. I thought it was gonna be a problem, but my concerns were unfounded. Guests were all respectful, cordial and help keep the place clean.
The hostel is owned and designed by a warm and friendly local, Mr Ba, who is there most times to welcome the guests and to supervise. He was a gracious host who made me feel welcome and gave me some local knowledge about this beautiful amcient city. Overall, I can't say enough how thankful I am with my stay here. Convenient location, clean, safe, relaxing, welcoming... I highly recommend this place.
