  • I loved this place! Bob was AWESOME and always so helpful. He helped us arrange a trip to the Great Wall and stayed up until 2:30 am when my plane landed late. The facilities were clean and modern and although the breakfast was simple it was nice to have something to munch on. This place is located down a few alleys but I always felt safe, and if you have your taxi driver call the hotel (or you call) Bob will give directions and meet your taxi so you don't get lost. Highly recommend!

  • einen gruss an bob, der sehr liebenswürdig und fachkundig ist und die gute seele des hauses ist. ebenfalls einen dank an die "versteckten" mitarbeiter, die für das einfache aber völlig ausreichende frühstück, warme zimmer und alles andere verantwordlich war. das zimmer war mal etwas ganz anderes mit einem herrlichen bett und völlig ausreichendem bad. auch der raum für alle hatte seinen chick. wir können das kelly hostel nur weiteremphelen, für alle die keinen sterilen hotelstil benötigen. m&o

  • I stayed at Kelly's Courtyard for 4 days and found the accommodations to be very good. Bob speaks good English and is very helpful with advice concerning getting around Beijing. The hostel has easy access to all public transportation making it convenient to get to Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City and Summer Palace. I would definitely stay there again.

  • I had a very nice time at Kelly's Courtyard. The staff was very helpsul and the atmosphere was very nice too. I was there in winter but I can imagine in summer the roof terrace must be amazing. I had the best night sleep in a very long time as it is so calm an quiet that nothing is disturbing you.

  • Although it's listed as a hostel, it's more a mini-hotel (8 rooms). It's very cheap and gives you all you need and more! Located in a 'hutong' near a subway (Xisi) and very close to several nice places such as the Forbidden City, Beihai Park etc. Very friendly and helpfull staff, although sometimes we would have liked more privacy. Rooms are cleaned every day and a Western breakfast is included but is the same every day.

Practically, Barcelona is a pretty easy city to navigate on foot or by public transport with a well laid-out grid system for the streets and a simple metro system. Here's an example of what you can do with 24 hours and a T10 (10 journey) metro ticket.
