5 Fabulous
I spent Feb. 2007 in China. Most of it in ChengDu. I stayed here upon the recommendation of a chinese friend who lives in ChengDu. The staff was the best -- very friendly and very helpful. Great location -- I walked many places from there. And when I had friends to act as my tour guides, buses were easily accessible. Rooms were very clean as well.

5 I stayed in holly's hostel on April during my China tour. It newly decorated, good service and reasonable price attracted me. The building full of Chinese ancient style and feelings of go home. It was situated in the downtown of the city, so it is convenient to travel and shopping.

5 Great place! I spent time here more than a month now, and it feels like home. Nice restaurant -- food available almost any time -- all services needed for a tourist available, and most importantly -- very friendly, honest, and helpful staff. Really can be recommended.

1 My advice is NOT to stay at this hostel. We arrived to a kind of building site with dustsheets and drilling. Our room was appalling. Filthy, holes in the wall, dreadful plumbing — the toilet overflowed on the first flush, and worst of all...cockroaches...enormous ones! Holly didn't seem to upset by any of this and showed us to another room. This one really wasn't much better, and was full of jumping, biting spiders. We checked out after a few hours. Chengdu is a great place, though.

4 Hi, I'm Maayan from Israel. I stayed in Holly's Hostel in September 2004 for almost a week so I can say for sure that it is highly recommended. The price is relatively cheap, the location is very good, the Tour services are very good and above all, Holly and her husband are very friendly and helpful.

5 Hi, Mark from Australia here. I stayed at Holly's and it was just fantastic. It's 2-star but the service and friendliness are as good as it gets. It seemed Holly (yes, she real!) could do or get just about any service or tour for you for anything, anywhere, at good prices. She arranged a pick-up at Chengdu airport for six of us, with baggage too, for 150 RMB [Renminbi, or "People's Currency"]. Even if you can afford "better" I recommend trying a few days here for a real China experience!

5 Holly's Hostel was an absolute godsend for me. Not only did someone pick us up from the train station, holding my husband's name at 5 a.m. in the morning, he also helped me get my SLR camera back from the train after I had sleepily left it in the cabin. Holly helped us organize our time, booked our Three Gorges trip and flights back to Beijing. The rooms were spacious and very reasonable. Fab!
