Simple Capsule Home (Xi'an Shu Yuan Men)

Il y a trop de personnes qui dorment dans cet endroit pour n'avoir qu'une petite salle de bain pour 30 personnes ou plus.

The lady that runs it is nice and friendly, the location is very good, and it is very cheap. At the end of the day its a bed for the night so will do the job. However, it's nothing like most of the photos (see my photos for proof). It says there's 2 bathrooms but the 'second' is only accessed through the owner's bedroom and only has a toilet, the public one wasn't that nice and had some queues even in quiet season. Freezing cold showers when its -3°c outside were awful. The capsule is big enough, although don't expect any soundproofing, and the bed is basically a thin mat so not comfortable at all. It was hard to find; you have to call the owner to give you directions and let you in (I don't have a Chinese phone number so had to ask some kind strangers), and didn't get a response to messages I sent in advance asking for access code. Some of the 4-5* reviews here are clearly for different hotels (as seen by pics) so overall rating should be lower imo. Its difficult because its clear the lady is running this in her home and it's her livelihood, and she is very sweet, so I don't want to critique it too much, but honestly wouldn't stay again. You're literally staying in her apartment (that's been 'converted' by adding some capsules). It's very 'simple' as the title suggests, so I didn't have high expectations, but it is not as advertised in pictures, hard to find and an uncomfortable stay. It's fine for a night or two but I stayed 4 and would rather have payed a few yuan extra to stay somewhere nicer. Honestly, 2/5 is generous I'm sorry.

Excelent and affordable place to live but the only problem is its was very hard to find the location .. its was on the 2nd floor while i was searching on the street.. overall the it was very clean and very good … the boss was very friendly … very nice lady ..

The Capsule hotel was located directly next to the South Gate of the Xi’An city wall. It is in a quaint little street. The location is perfect, but a bit difficult to find as there was no actual address. Once arrived, I called the service number and about 5 minutes later the attendant arrived. This is where it all went south. The pods were fine and sized appropriately. The issue is; there is not a proper door or gate to the capsules. Instead there is a thin bamboo screen that you can definitely see through. In fact, I was at direct eye height with a man in his capsule just in underwear. The lockers designated for each capsule did not contain a lock and were also filled with bedding and other items. The bathroom was, for lack of better terms, disgusting! Black mold crawled on the walls and the smell of mildew filled the air. The “sitting area” advertised on the website was simply a bench in the walkway. There were at least 15 capsules crammed into what would usually be a 1 or 2 bedroom apartment. The area was also VERY dark and not representative of the images from the website. I think if the bathroom, storage situation, lighting, and capsule doors received an extreme overhaul, it could be a nice place to stay. My friend and I decided to stay elsewhere because she did not feel safe staying in a capsule that ANYONE could look into at any time. Also, do not book this place if you do not have at least conversational mandarin level. The staff spoke NO English, but tried to be as helpful as possible.

乾淨衞生，房間還在二樓遠離一樓店鋪，寬敞明亮，安靜私密，周邊就是書院街和西安城牆，老闆熱情，該有的都有，問題是還賊便宜，是我住過性價比最高最無敵的，推薦大家一定要訂。

非常方便的民宿！又方便又便宜。位置蠻好，在西安中心，但是這家民宿很難找，因為路上沒有什麼牌子指着民宿在哪裡。裡邊也要修理一下走廊和衞生間。我主要喜歡，以足回來，因為蠻方便，但是願意民宿更好一點了

La relación calidad precio de este alojamiento es muy buena. Yo llegué a las 2 de la mañana y me atendieron muy amablemente. Las instalaciones son muy aceptables si tenemos en cuenta que se trata de un alojamiento muy básico, con intimidad y taquilla privada. Muy recomendable para quien busque este tipo de alojamiento. En mi caso lo elegí porque solo iba a estar 5 horas. Buena opción para mochileros.

床單不乾淨，和照片的差別大，衞生間衹有一個，去一次要等好久，洗澡的也在衞生間裏面，男女混住，比較亂，位置很偏僻，在小巷子裏很黑，剛去都找不到地方（不止我們找不到，幾乎大家都找不到）建議去的朋友好好選擇！
