Liangzhu Homestay (Urumqi Zhongyinggong Subway Station)

It's a very friendly and relaxed place. The neighbourhood is really nice as well. It's just a short ride from the train station and filled with loads of restaurants and grocery stores and markets. What sparked my interest in this hostel is that the bathroom is downstairs and the room is upstairs. This way you don't have to listen to everyone using to bathroom and the lights won't wake you up. And in reality it worked really well as well; ) The other thing I liked was that they don't hand out single use toiletries and water bottles which sa⁹fes a lot of rubbish. The beds and bedding are really comfy if it is just you in the bunk. If you've got an neighbour then the bed shakes everytime someone moves which is a bit annoying. Unfortunately there's just one big light so everytim⁹e someone needs some light the whole room is brightly lit. A suggestion would be to have multiple lights that are less bright or fit all beds with curtains. Since a lot of people don't know what it takes to be considered curtains would probably safe a lot of grief. I'll definitely come back when I'm in Urumqi again!

This place is amazing, in terms of location it is located amongst the local housing / schools a little bit in the alley however it is not far from public transportation (the subway is 800m away) and taxis are plenty. The room is great for the price it offers, i stayed in the duplex for 3 nights, it was spacious and clean. The amenities are of great qualities too, towels/bedsheets are clean. The front desk are very welcoming and helpful. I don’t speak Mandarin, however this was not a problem as we can communicate through wechat/translation app and they were willing to help me as much as they could and that alone show that the hospitality is beyond expectation. Another great thing is, one of the host speaks great English too! As a foreigner, this is a plus point of staying at this great accomodation, although I would suggest that any traveler to learn a little bit of the local language to have a more memorable travel experience. The host gives great travel advices as well. I would definitely be back again at this place when I visit Xinjiang in the future 💖

Reception staff were very enthusiastic and friendly. Will stay again when I comeback Urumqi!

Absolutely enjoyed our stay in Liangzhu! The room is big and cosy. Comes with projectors to chill after a long day. The owner was there in the morning to greet their guests and gave us recommendations for places to visit in Urumqi. Very lovely lady! My partner fell sick during the trip and she even kindly offered ginger tea. Definitely should book a stay here if you prefer a cosy and spacious outdoor area to chill, and plus points, hang out with their cute cats!! Also nice coffee place right outside of the homestay :)

This place is amazing for foreign travelers, i came here for 2 nights after one horrible one at another place, and sofia and the staff were ao helpful with everything! Sofia has amazing english and she also recommended amazing food places to eat. I would highly recommend for solo travelers to come
