Amber Youth Art Hotel (West Lake Scenic Area)

If all hostels in China were like this one, I’d be more than satisfied! The location is very convenient, the staff wants to help, the common room is big and very nice; there’s a balcony; there’s a room only for toilets and another one only for showers (women and men separated, so four in total), so I didn’t have to wait to pee or to take my shower; and soap and shampoo are given. (But bring your flip flops!) And the room! I was with three other people but it didn’t feel crowded, there’s more than enough space to put the luggage (and it’s easily accessible), to access the upper berth we use stairs instead of a ladder (which is safer and more convenient), the bed wasn’t hard, the curtains effectively block any light, etc. Needless to say that I had a great sleep! Negative points: hard to find the hostel (so maybe don’t arrive too late because you won’t be able to ask people for directions), no fridge and no umbrellas. The most negative point in my opinion is the lack of ventilation in the showers, it felt like the Amazonian jungle each time I entered the room. But the positive points definitely outweigh the negative ones. I definitely recommend this hostel!

出差預算有限但體驗超出預期！配備智能門鎖，房間的櫃子也很大，周邊便利店餐飲齊全，步行十來分鐘就到西湖了，環境很好，晚上的夜景也很美，顛覆對青旅的刻板印象。

Neat hostel, clean and well equipped. I had difficulties finding the place as there isn't any english signs in the huge building and there's many floors and many hotels in the same building. Reception is on 5th floor and at least some rooms are on 6th. But overall nice and the reception helped me and booked a train on the official chinese website I have no chance on navigating by myself.

房間乾淨整潔有序美觀舒適；公共區域管理有序，氛圍很好；衞生間淋浴間會及時打掃清理。洗衣間希望能繼續進行分區規劃和整理，提升客户體驗感～

地理位置：很好 但距離地鐵站帶行李箱的話不方便 設施：六樓的公區並不多 還有某些人直接脱鞋吧腳放對面椅子上 衞生：淋浴間沒有洗髮水 地上有水垢 服務：還可以吧 地圖上寫的前台6樓 結果在5樓 還是比較安靜的 但男女沒有分層 個別人穿衣不整 影響比較大吧 其次店內的設施比較飲用水洗衣房那些沒有標註 總之對得起這個價格

有桌球桌，有陽台，有棋牌室。成熟的青旅值得被發現，來杭州就來安泊青旅，旁邊海底撈還有貓貓可以擼。離西湖很近，離商圈也不遠，近乎完美！
