Kevin's Old House is located at the downtown area of Shanghai, just a 10-minute stroll from Jing'an Temple Subway Station (Line 2). It features European-inspired accommodation with classic furnishings and elegant décor. Kevin’s Old House is sort a traditional/vinatge/antique hotel in the center of Jing’an. If that’s your vibe; you’ll love it. It’s also co-located with Bella Napoli that makes amazing pizza. The room also had a laundry machine which makes life so much easier. Super helpful & friendly staff too. Will definitely stay again.

Located in Shanghai, 1.1 km from Jing'an Temple, Shanghai Downtown Hills Boutique Guesthouse - Near Metro Line 7, Exit 3, Changping Road provides air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and express check-in and check-out. The property features city and inner courtyard views, and is 1.9 km from Jade Buddha Temple. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. I was there at end February, actually 5 days ago. The place is easy to find (recommend to use China version of google map). I had no difficulty to locate it. I was early than my scheduled time, after contacting them, I got checked in without any fuss. The common place was tastefully designed. I love the Kitchen and the common area. It has homey feel and I felt like was coming home. I had the Kenya room, it was lovely arranged, clean, spacious, comfortable, cozy and warm. It beats the average hotel rooms one finds in China. I loved the toilet as it was fitted with an electric bidet and sear warmer (lovely especially in the winter). No bath tub (which is super great as I dislike climbing in and out slippery tub). The entire apartment though shared, it is quiet and cozy. Everything is self service, there are concierge or receptionist, but helps are easily to reach and easily available. I had no problem or difficulties in my 4D3N stays here. The place is in an alley, it is a common old alley community (弄堂) (it is exactly the experience I was looking for). The surrounding has many eateries, both local and western. I had the opportunity to buy breakfast (soya drink, 油条&馅饼)from the neighbouring shop, and ate in the common area. I also had a chance to eat at 2 western cafe, sat at the window and watched locals and visitors alike walking by or rushing the work. There also many convenience stores nearby, though those chains operated would need a bit of walking to access. Lots of bars too, but the night scenes is quiet, there are no rowdy disorderly crowds, just folks enjoying quiet relaxing drinks and food in cozy indoor/outdoor setting. There's shopping district and malls near by (at JingAnSi 静安寺). The entire neighbourhood (from which ever metro station you use), its peaceful, quiet and safe (at any hours).
