Good location in Xiemending with about 4 blocks to MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) station. The room and washroom was cleaned. So were the sheets and blankets. Good basic back pack hotel for singles or couples. I was with my teenage son. So we reserved a double bunk beds with private bath. Free water with water dispenser machine, free local maps. Many restaurants, shops near by. Staff spoke good English. I felt safe in terms of security.
