9/10 Wonderful! (61 reviews)
The location is the best. Just outside the Walking street and near the metro station. Very convenient. Clean and well maintained. They will give you pillow cases, blankets and slippers. I was hoping for a towel too but that is fine, i just need to but a disposable one. I am not really into hostels bacause I can’t move freely inside the rooms as it may disturb your other roommates BUT that is expected on hostels and I don’t take that against my score. Overall recommended if you are on a budget and open to sharing rooms.

Had some problems checking in but the staff were super friendly, spoke english and was just reassuring through the stay. Only issue was the smoke smell around the halls for those in dorms but it goes away once in the capsule.

The location is great to visit Shanghai with the metro accessible almost directly from the hotel, great units and friendly staff. To improve, I would like to see some more "healthy" options on the breakfast and room service. But overall an excellent option.

How to find the best Shanghai package deals?
Use Expedia’s handy filters to find some unbeatable Shanghai package deals. When you begin your search, just set your maximum budget and then order the results by “Price: low to high.” If you’re looking to save, plan your break for midweek, or look for Shanghai package deals in the off-season. Switch up your travel dates and you may land even bigger discounts. As a rule of thumb, it’s typically best to book your holiday package as early as possible.
