Pingyao No. 1 International Youth Hostel

Nice place, close to the North Gate of the old city, close to the train station. The room was big, quiet, warm with a good wifi. You don't have towels or slippers, but it's clean, with a good bathroom.

I was given a very warm reception, I felt safe and comfortable. I was welcomed by the sweetest lady who showed me the structure and made me feel cared about, without that being invasive. It is only five minutes walking from the city wall, in a very quiet neighbourhood, 15 to 20 minutes from the high speed train station (by taxi) or 35/40 by bus. I think that the building is a home transformed in hostel, so the experience of staying there is twice interesting, because you can see how homes are structured and how people live, outside of the touristic routes. I often travel alone, safety is the priority and in some other situations I did not felt completely at ease, but this was not the case. After many days spent on the road this was the perfect spot to recharge. I recommend who is planning to go to Pingyao to stay at 平遥壹号国际青年旅舍. I would definitely go back if I have the opportunity.

It was very difficult to find the location. It took me 1 hour.

店主奶奶很親切，現在淡季人很少。應該是自家住宅改造，空間挺大的，很寬敞。不過要用空調的話需要另付，有免費風扇可以使用。離平遙火車站1.多公里，走也走得到，門口拐出來400米就有公交108路可以去雙林寺也可以去平遙古城站（高鐵站），還算方便的

我在這家店住了 1️⃣個星期，老闆夫婦倆特別熱情熱心，拼飯好吃超值。店裡乾淨衞生，安靜好睡，周邊交通便利，吃喝都很方便，下次還來。

平遙古城北門附近，距離平遙站一公里，走路就能到，可以在店裡吃早餐，10元一份，正餐15元，相對旅遊區的物價還是很實惠的。
