WBS Hostel

Guangxi


Tucked away off the main road just up from Silver Beach, and conveniently located for the ferry terminal and Overseas Town, WBS Hostel makes for a solid, if unremarkable, budget choice. It has both dorms and private rooms, but it lacks atmosphere and there are no sea views as claimed. No English spoken.
