Haikou Banana International Youth Hostel

Great place, everything you need from hostel

Unfortunately I do not believe my bed sheets had been changed so I had to ask for clean bed sheets and make the bed myself. The curtains around the beds were a little broken. The dorm door did not lock. The hostel was quite tired and in need of refurbishment. The location was excellent. It was 5-10 minutes walk go McDonalds and a shopping centre. 20 minutes walk to the arcade streets and about 40 minutes walk to the beach. There was lots of shops and markets within close walking distance.

The taxi driver found it a bit tricky to find, it’s down an alley next to a supermarket. The sign is obvious once you get there! Easy walk to the clock tower. Staff are wonderful and helpful. Room is well layout with a changing area curtained off before the shower/toilet room. Beds have curtains and mosquito nets, plugs and lights. The AC is just a ceiling fan but was good enough at the end of August.
