According to the rate it’s an amazing, Very Safe, Staff are so professional & Helpful, they do always their best from the first second with a big smile and during 24hr. Much better than other hostel as We***w. Showers & shampoo& Conditioner are outstanding. If like to be close to the hostel life & action stay in ground floor , for quite rooms in the top floors . They have nice coffee with good price. Many shops close by. Ground floor bathroom needs more care as has a lot of traffics.

    Excellent - What previous guests thought, 199 reviews
    The room was very clean and comfortable. It had everything you can ask for. The location was truely goog, because the Metro was right in front of the door. The Maglev Train not even 5 min by foot. In the area there is a little coffee shop and a very cheap, but good breakfast spot, so breakfast in the Hotel for extra charge is not nescessary.

    Lovely room, the bath tub with a city view was an added bonus- but the room was lovely even without that, extra large comfortable bed, very clean, stocked fridge everyday. Breakfast was excellent, with good choice for everyone. Bar prices were good too and the terrace over looking the city at night is a lovely place for an evening drink. Location is ideal- easy walk to the Bund, Yu Yuan garden and the old town shopping street. Staff were also lovely and friendly- would definitely recommend- ideal place to stay in Shanghai
