We arrived in Xi'an to swarms of people at the Xi'an train station.
We had no idea how we were going to find our hostel - luckily someone from Ancient Street hostel was waiting for us holding up a sign when we arrived. lovely suprise!

They guided us onto a public bus and in 30minutes we were at the hostel. Staff were very helpful - got us a really cheap ticket to Guilin on short notice. The room was average - large but not finished well. Lots of holes for mosquitoes to get in and unfortunately i woke with lots of little red bites.. the walls of the bedroom looked a crime scene were previous patrons had squashed mosquitoes on the walls.

The hostel is in a beautiful part of Xi'an right at the South Gate of the Xi'an perimeter wall. Good food is hard to find in Xi'an so was nice to be close to KFC and Macdonalds also.

I liked the staff here but felt the rooms were average - i'm sure you could find better in Xi'an. more
