The staff was very good. The room was modern, clean and light. Check in was 3 hours earlier than it should be. Also they allowed us to keep our baggage after we checked out till the evening without extra charge. On the first floor there are 3 china cafes. The cat was cute.

I highly recommend this place. Very well located, subway around and party places not far (Found 158). The bed keeps your privacy with curtain, a locker and your own lamp. They also provide a towel, toothbrush and flip flops. Beds are comfy and toilets are clean.

All hostels in Shanghai

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.
