Dunhuang
This hostel is plant- and light-filled, inviting you to lounge and plan one of the offered tours. Dorm beds are comfy with modern shared bathrooms. Doubles are bright and spacious. The street is traffic heavy and rather out on a limb, but the Shazhou Night Market is a 10-minute walk away through a leafy park. English spoken.
Free shuttle bus from train station.
