Pros: staff were lovely and very helpful. Location was excellent. Room was new and very clean. Cabled internet available in room, otherwise wifi in bar area. Cons: breakfast was expensive and rubbish. Internet (like lots of places) was slow, both the wifi and cabled. We stayed four nights and definitely recommend it. I would like to stay in the french...

I stayed in a private room and although I didn't think much of Shanghai, I thought this was a pretty decent hostel. Staff were friendly and helpful, there was free wifi, cheap laundry, a good bar, and very central location. The rooms were small and only serviced on request, which was unusual and can only work well if they are... More

Stayed there 3 nights, with a break of 1 night in between. Although we had an uneventful inconvenience as our last night booking was overbooked, the staff were very helpful to and accommodating to replace the roommate with another establishment which is just 1 floor below them , 7 days inn- which is equally good in terms of service and...

As most other reviewers have mentioned, the location is the best attribute of this hostel. It is a 5 minute walk from East Nanjing station and a ten minute walk from the Bund. It takes about 10-15 minutes (~30 yuan) to get to the former French concession area by taxi, but that is a minor inconvenience. The hostel itself is... More

A better location doesn't seems possible. I would stay there again in a heart beat! Clean, friendly and will help you with any of your needs. On the 6th floor -... More

Here's the lowdown: Pros: -Comfortable clean beds with bedside power outlets (so you can work on your laptop on bed) -Bar with a nice beer selection at reasonable prices! This scored major brownie...

I had a private double room, but they put me in a family room instead (which was fine with me). The room was reasonable sized and had a small TV and water kettle. Walls are on the thin side, and one night my neighbor blasted his television until about 4am, which kept me awake. It's winter, and the whole place... More

Decent hostel in central Shanghai. Close to the Bund, Nanjing Road and metro station.

I stayed here for a night on the christmas eve of 2011. As soon as we arrived at People Square by metro, we took a taxi by mistake, not knowing exactly how near the hostel actually was. To top this, the taxi took us to another branch of the Blue mountain hostel in another area 20mins away. But the guy... More
