Review of Shanghai Ji Hotel (People's Square Branch): Convenience and Minor Drawbacks at the Center of the Universe

Review of Shanghai Ji Hotel (People's Square Branch): Convenience and Minor Drawbacks at the Center of the Universe Hey everyone, today let's chat about the Shanghai Ji Hotel located in People's Square, the center of the universe, and see how the accommodation experience holds up in this super convenient location 🧐 Soundproofing & Cleanliness: A Mixed Bag First, let's talk about soundproofing. If there are people walking or talking in the hallway, you can definitely hear it in the room—the soundproofing leaves a bit to be desired 😕. However, it's generally quiet during nighttime rest, so you can still get a decent night's sleep without too much disturbance. As for cleanliness, I'd give it a 3/5. The overall hygiene is passable, and the room is cleaned well. But small visible flaws like rusty hangers can be a bit of a mood killer—they're just annoying to look at 😟. Room Type & Layout: Comfort with Minor Annoyances I stayed in a king room with a large, comfortable bed that allowed for plenty of "rolling-over freedom" 🛏. However, the pillows were too soft and lacked support, leaving my neck a bit sore after waking up. I think the front desk mentioned they could provide other pillow types—wish I'd known earlier. The room has a window, and I initially thought it would be great for ventilation since it faces the street. But upon entering, I was a little surprised—the window is tiny. Compared to the hallway windows, it doesn't offer much more natural light or airflow, leaving the room dim during the day with only a faint view of the street outside 🌆. This made applying makeup a bit awkward since the lighting wasn't great—had to rely on luck for that 💄. Nearby Attractions: Prime Location, Super Convenient But I have to praise the hotel's location—it's absolutely perfect 👍! Just a few minutes' walk to People's Square Metro Station, Raffles City, Shanghai Book City, and Huangpu District Library. If you prefer ride-hailing, the drop-off point is right across the street, making transportation in this "center of the universe" incredibly convenient 🚕. Public transport is also easily accessible—just check your navigation app, and you can choose the best way to get anywhere you want to go. Amenities & Facilities: Standard Ji Hotel, Practicality First The room comes with Ji Hotel's standard sofa, and the one in my room was quite spacious—plenty of room for bags. The small coffee table and side table by the hangers were also practical, perfect for placing cosmetics and skincare products 💄. Other Services: Fun Robot Service For any needs, just ask the front desk. The hotel's robot service is really efficient and super fun 🤖. Need something? Just tell the front desk, and the robot will dutifully deliver it—both convenient and entertaining~ Overall, the Shanghai Ji Hotel (People's Square Branch) excels with its prime location and excellent transportation convenience.
