I like the property however due to the coronavirus they had to shut down the hotel. They promised me my refund and i still have not received it. Im missing 2666 CNY. They stole my money. I will have to file a police report when i get back to China.

Clean room, convenient place
The place is easy to find. Near the subway and shopping malls. The room is quiet and clean. The only shortcoming is no elevator, which makes it difficult for me to bring my luggages to the third floor.

Satisfactory Budget Accommodation
Staying at Lab Hostel / Shengsha Hotel is pretty much what you would expect for budget accommodation. Nothing was amazing but everything was okay. The staff weren't overly friendly or enthusiastic, but were helpful and knowledgeable when questioned. The room and beds weren't the most comfortable, but were clean. The bathroom was slippery, with subpar water pressure, but the water was hot, the sink spacious, and the towels soft. 5 minute walk to the nearest subway station. Only major complaint was noise; while there didn't seem to be much coming from adjacent rooms, the windows are paper thin. Construction, traffic, local neighborhood morale officers... you will hear any and all of these starting at 7 am sharp. Would not recommend if you want to sleep in.

This hostel is one of the premier hostels Ive ever stayed in. Wifi was great, the room was spacious and we were all together. The nearby subway was a 10 minute walk with access to Imperial Palace and temples. The desk staff were very friendly and helpful with our questions. We would stay here again.

Stayed here around December last year. I know this review is late but I just want to say thank you for being a great hostel and I'm only appreciating how great it is after looking for hostels in Europe. Staff were friendly, we booking a tour to the Great Wall through them which saved us time from organising (You're pretty much just paying for transport but once you get there most people disperse and do their own thing. There is a tourguide however and you have a lunch included afterwards). I stayed in a couples room and it was really modern. Mattress was comfortable but bed was squeaky, although not a big deal. Wifi was not good in the room as we had a room far on the end but worked in the common area. Reception acts as a bar if you want some drinks. Also cheap compared to hotels. Not a really social place if you are a solo traveller but depends on what you want. Being a couple, we just wanted peace and quiet and we got that. Thanks again to the friendly staff that were working at the time.

Dirty bathroom VS comfy bed&cool lobby
The bed was comfy and I really liked the lobby so I extended my stay, but soon I regretted not having checked the bathroom properly. The bathroom(shower, toilet, sink) is absolutely filthy I didn't even feel freshened up after a shower. There was no amenities stated up here; they provide toilet rolls which were barely enough for one person or two. I was satisfied with the bed, bedding, the lobby, and curtains for each bed. But there are so many downsides which made my stay overall 'meh'. Good value for the location (10 min walk to Sanlitun and close to subway to the airport) but there's room for improvement.

Amazing new hostel
Amazing new hostel it’s newly renovated big open lobby and big tv screen for movie nights and comfy bean bags,happy hour bogof 6-8 pm. dorm rooms big and spacious with en suite. The staff are great especially Will and Julie and the atmosphere is great to meet new people. To get here from Tuanjiehu station exit b go straight past the bus stop turn right into the community and go to the end of the road turn left at the top and you will see sign for shengsha hotel which is its former name. From McDonald’s at the left of it go up the street through the gate and to the Main Street past the tower block turn right and left at the end and you will come to the hostel.

Super Hostel, stylish, zentral und Staff war super
Das Hostel ist sehr schön und modern. Das Zimmer war super und gross. Die Location ist gleich bei Sanlitun, man ist innert Minuten bei Bus- und Subwaystationen. Bars, Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind auch alle zu Fuss erreichbar. Super freundliche Bedienung an der Reception und sie halfen mir auch DiDi zum ersten mal zu benutzen! Ich hab einen Tag früher ausgeheckt und sie haben mir die Nacht zurückerstattet. Das Taxi vom Flughafen zum Hostel konnte den Weg durch das Quartier nicht finden, aber es war nicht so weit zu Fuss. Das einzige, was zu bemängeln ist, ist, dass man die anderen Gäste doch sehr gut hört. Vor allem wenn man (wie ich) ein Zimmer zur Strasse hat, und Leute vor dem Hostel laut eden und lachen.

전반적으로 매우 만족
친구와 두명이서 베이징 자유여행했습니다. 트윈룸 잡아서 지냈습니다. 1. 위치는 지하철 역 근처라 좋았지만, 번화가쪽은 아니여서 피부로 다가오는 접근성은 생각보다 좋지 않습니다. 걸어서 갈만한 거리에 싼리툰이 있다는 점은 어느정도 메리트인 것 같네요. 2. 청결상태는 좋았습니다. 매일 키핑해주시고 화장실이나 침구상태 나쁘지 않았어요. 다만 1층 방은 벌레가 조금 나올 수 있습니다. 저희도 1층이었는데 작은 벌레들 몇 마리 잡았습니다. 3. 직원들 영어 나쁘지않게 합니다. 의사소통에 불편하지 않습니다. 4. 호텔에서 하는 만리장성 투어를 했습니다. 국내 당일패키지보다 싼 가격이었고, 점심도 주어서 좋았습니다. 투어는 영어로 진행됩니다. 호텔은 중계만 하는 것 같은데...가이드랑 만나는게 조금 어려웠어요. 다른 지하철 역 앞 광장에서 미팅하는데, 종이들고 돌아다니시는 분들한테 계속 맞냐고 물어봐야 합니다 ㅠㅠ 만리장성 케이블카는 비용에 포함되지 않아요. 인당 120위안 인가? 그쯤 했습니다. 이거 포함하면 국내 여행사랑 2만원 정도만 차이나네요. 전반적으로 아주 만족했습니다. 저는 다시 이용할 의향 있습니다. 다들 즐거운 여행 되세요ㅎㅎ

離捷運步行12分到三里屯約15-20分，在住宅區內但位置算方便。舊賓館改裝的青旅房間無印風格明亮舒服。但最大缺點隔音超差隔壁打呼都聽的到而且當地大陸住客很多走道都是他們聊天的聲音，真是浪費房間的舒適被當地客的吵鬧扣分。
