I loved it! The only minor could be the cold, as almost every hostel in Shanghai it doesnot have a proper heating. Only air con heating can not take the cold away. But extra layers cloth will keep you warm as well :)

The blanket is not so clean, and the flushing of the toilet is weak. Generally ok in other aspects.

This is our 2nd stay since 2 years ago n we enjoy it that's the reason we came back to stay. But after this stay we'll not be back to stay here. Staff were rude n unfriendly. They just can't show simple courtesy of hello, please, TQ n even goodbye.

Food and drinks were expensive and staff were unfriendly and rude. In this case this will discourage customer to hang around the common area to interact n meet new friends. Staff do not even bother to say hello, please, thanks and even bye. Very very rude n unfriendly. This is my second stay in this hostel over 2 years. Previous trip was really good that's why we are back in the same hostel this year.

A great location next to peoples square. Its very easy to get out and see the city from there. The room was comfortable enough, with a good shower just outside. The only downside is the internet which is painfully slow at times.

If i had to go back again to Shanghai I would try to host in the same place. The common areas are very big, relaxing and comfortable. The staff is very kind and the location is very good too. The food is very good too. Thanks!
