"I actually wanted to stay in a different hotel (the one I stayed before), but it was fully booked so I chose this one and I had a very pleasant stay, even though it was just for one night. I got a better room than I originally booked. I'm a fan of loft flats, so it was a surprise for me lol It's quite small, but very cosy. The room was very clean, had everything needed for a stay. The staff doesn't speak English, even though it's almost a city centre of Shanghai, so prepare a translator. But still was helpful. I surely will stay here again and would recommend this place. The location is great as well."

"Good value for money. The hotel is quite old but was clean and very functional and the room was fairly spacious. The aircon worked well and the shower was good. Breakfast was fine although only a few options for vegetarians but we did still get yogurts, fruit, cereal, toast and eggs and coffee was really good. Location was okay, just a little bit of a walk but nothing too much. Staff were great, professional and friendly. They used a translation app to help us and check in was really efficiently. They allowed us to store our luggage whilst we spent the last day exploring before our flight home. For Vegetarian travellers, there's a good restaurant literally around the corner, 5 minutes at the most from the hotel. Located really conveniently for the metro for People's Park and not too far to Nanjing road and down to the bund. We would recommend this hotel and would certainly stay here again I think. Shanghai."

NNinidianxiaThe hotel's location is excellent, making it convenient for getting around. However, precisely because of its prime location, the room rates are quite high, and the rooms themselves are rather small. Breakfast is delivered to the room and includes steamed buns, eggs, and soy milk, which I personally found quite good. The room was also relatively quiet. If you prioritize convenience and don't mind smaller room sizes or more basic facilities, this place is a good choice.

It was hard to find from the address but it was nice regardless and surrounding area was very chill and in a more local area.

GGuest UserMy experience at this Airbnb was absolutely perfect, I just have to write a long review to praise it! First off, the location – it's truly unbeatable! Just a few minutes' walk from the subway station, making it easy to get anywhere. Nanjing Road and the Bund, core attractions, are only a few stops away. Downstairs, there's a convenience store and a popular café, super convenient for late-night snacks or a good coffee in the morning. Even more surprisingly, the B&B is tucked away in a quiet alley, truly achieving 'bustling outside, tranquil inside,' completely free from city center noise. The transportation convenience is beyond words. A direct subway ride from Hongqiao Airport, no transfers needed. The nearest subway exit is less than a 5-minute walk, and there are many bus routes nearby. Whether you're heading to Disneyland, Yu Garden, or Lujiazui, they're all basically within a 30-minute commute. Taxis are also readily available on the street, and the host thoughtfully prepared a local transportation guide. Now, let's talk about the host's service – it deserves full marks! From the moment the booking was confirmed, the host proactively contacted us, sending a super detailed graphic check-in guide, clearly marking which subway exit to take and the quickest way to get there. On the day of check-in, they even waited at the entrance to help us carry our luggage upstairs. The room was stocked with complimentary bottled water, snacks, and even disposable raincoats and masks – the attention to detail was incredibly thoughtful. We asked for local food recommendations a few times, and the host responded instantly; the recommended local restaurants were all very authentic. Upon check-out, they even gave us a small bag of Shanghai specialty pastries as a farewell gift. This kind of personal touch is something hotels simply can't match. The room itself was an even greater surprise. It was much larger than expected; in a city like Shanghai, where every inch is precious, being able to stay in such a spacious B&B was truly lucky. The living room and bedroom are clearly separated, more than enough space for two people, and even suitable for a small gathering. The decor is a minimalist, natural wood style, with comfortable color schemes, and every piece of furniture feels high-quality. The bedding was exceptionally soft, and there were both firm and soft pillows to choose from, allowing even someone like me who has trouble sleeping in new places to get a good night's rest. The cleanliness was impeccable; everything from under the bed to the windowsill was spotless, and even the bathroom drain was sparkling clean. Regarding the environment, the window overlooks a quiet small courtyard, and the morning sunlight streaming in was beautiful. Green plants adorned the room perfectly, and there was a faint aroma of essential oils. The host provided a smart toilet, an XGIMI projector, and a Marshall speaker, making watching movies on the sofa at night an absolute delight. The soundproofing was also excellent; we stayed for three nights and were never bothered by noise. In short, this stay far exceeded my expectations. If you want to deeply explore Shanghai, and also desire a comfortable stay with convenient transportation and a home-like feeling, this B&B is definitely the top choice. Next time I visit Shanghai, I will definitely stay here again! I highly recommend it to all my friends!

GGemiNOTthe1Not even a 15 minute walk from the closest metro station (地铁站). And there's so many restaurants nearby, including Shanghai cuisine. Plus, rideshare bikes are available (i.e. 哈罗, **, 和滴滴自行车). When I walked in, I was greeted by a very nice auntie who helped me at the front desk. She was very patient with my mediocre Chinese speaking skills and politely inquired about my travel plans. The elevator is in plain sight in the entry way, which is VERY handy if you just walked all those 15 minutes from the metro station or if you have heavy luggage. It also does not require you to swipe/scan a room key. The second floor is one long hallway. And the doors allow you to either type in a code or tap/swipe your room key. I never used the code, just the tap/swipe method. I highly recommend this hotel if you have mobility issues because of the lack of steep stairs, elevator access, and hallway layout. Just be careful hopping into the bathroom because of the large gap. After entering the room (see the pictures I attached), the vibes were pretty nice. Sleek, modern, and clean. I liked the floor level separation between the entryway and the bedroom area as well as the bathroom. Speaking of the bathroom, it has two pairs of slippers, which managed to fit my big feet (US Size 11-11.5 / China Size 46-47). However, as you can see in the images provided, the toilet is very close to the sink, with little space for you to spread out your legs. But I did not care because the water temperature changes so fast and you don't have to wait like 10 minutes like at so many other hotels. The toiletries provided in the room include one small bottle each of shampoo and body wash as well as two small rolls of toilet paper. Plus, they have two body towels, two hand towels, one medium towel, a hair dryer. There is more than enough storage space for one or two people. There's a closet with shelves and hangers in the bedroom area. Then there's a refrigerator, and then so much cabinet space in the entry area. If you need air conditioning or heating in the room, there is a white controller that connects to an AC unit affixed to the ceiling and upper wall area. The window curtains allowed for a deep dark sleeping experience, which I absolutely loved. The washing machine works well but has a small interior, so you may need to do multiple loads. If you don't understand Chinese, the labels correspond to different settings, which I recommend consulting. The one I used (春秋 / Spring and Autumn) was perfect for me when I was there in February. My only real critique is that the windows did not shut all the way and I had no idea of how to fix the issue. I forgot about it until the last day, though. Also, be sure to wear earplugs since the street noises are insanely loud if you have a road-facing room. I hope that this review gives a decent bit of context for even just one person!
