Great place to stay in Beijing
We have travelled a lot and many times stayed in hostels, but the Jade one was far best hostel I have ever stayed. It is even better that many 2-3 stars hotels in European cities.
The location is great - 3 min from the Forbidden City, and 5min from the main square and 3min from the main shopping street. The rooms are basic, mainly in white and light wood colours, very clean, full of small details like kettle and jasmine tea bags included in the price paid, room shoes, tooth brash etc. The hostel has internet room, travel agency which can organize the tours and taxis, and the luggage room where they allow to leave luggage up to over a week.
Definitely very good value for money and will use it again when back to Beijing.
