So close to everything and so easy to get around. This is the only place in the world I have stayed at where you can have a 23rd floor view of the city centre at hostel prices! Leanne is lovely and bent over backwards to help me, very friendly and obliging lady with very good english (handy in China!). Good luck finding a bathroom in a hostel in China that doesn't make your skin crawl, cos both the ones here were better than my flat in Huhehaote. Also did I mention that you can cook your own meals and that the bathrooms don't smell. I met an Australian fellow who travels the world and has been to remote places like Socatra Island, a Chinese fellow who designs cars and was accepted to an Italian design school while I was there and an Italian fellow who speaks good Chinese and sells wine. Also the type of people that pass through here are really interesting. It's closer to your aunt's place that you're helping her pay for than some impersonal sardine box hostels that I've been to in Tianhe.

Like seriously, for 60kuai a night were else are you going to find a proper soft mattress and a proper thick duvet? The other places in this price range don't come with a super beautiful view of the lake, aren't in a nice middle class residential complex and most importantly don't have Leanne, the nice lady/owner who will tell you about the city and give you advice. I was in the eight to a room bunk bed dorm, but the room was really large and the people were friendly/co-operative and it had A/C. But at sunshine hostel I had a soft bed and a proper duvet. Even some of the 300kuai a night hotels in Guangzhou have hardish beds. It's hard to find a soft bed, most lower price places use hard thin mattresses and paper thin duvets. I've been around China from Huhehoate to Beijing to Nanjing to Hefei, Chengdu, Shanghai, Zhengzhou, Shenzen and around in Guangzhou. The bathrooms are clean and the beds are super padded and soft like what you're used to at home. Leanne speaks proper functional English and is such a helpful and welcoming lady.
