The room was very clean, and the location was super convenient. We could get to pretty much every attraction really quickly. The environment was great too, and everyone was very polite. Had a fantastic experience, highly recommend! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

The environment was quite good, and the stay was very comfortable. The only issue was that the bathroom was a bit cramped, making it hard to hang clothes or towels, or put things down. However, it was very clean~

When I stayed, the temperature in Shanghai was around 10-16 degrees Celsius. It's about a 12-minute walk from Shanghai Railway Station. The overall style is reminiscent of a modern university dorm, clean and tidy. Upon check-in, the front desk provides a room card, bedding, toiletries, and slippers.

The room's air conditioning maintains a constant warm temperature. Each person has a cabinet that opens with a key card, and the bed is clean, with hangers and a small shelf. The bathroom is kept cool at a constant 26 degrees Celsius. The sink, toilet, and shower are all separate. The sink area has hand soap, the toilets are all Western-style and come with toilet seat cleaner, and the shower is fully stocked with shampoo, body wash, and conditioner.

On the ground floor, the hostel offers a common area and a bar for guests to openly socialize.

Overall, it was an excellent and open accommodation experience. I highly recommend it for travelers who appreciate high-quality stays.

The facilities are perfect, it's one of the few places in China that can compare to hostels in Tokyo, Japan. There's a cocktail bar on the first floor, a laundry room, and large bathrooms. The common area is spacious. Although Jiahao can be a bit noisy there, that's not the hotel's fault. The only issue is that the beds are a bit short. At 193.5cm, I can lie down but can only barely stretch my legs out straight. I'd estimate the beds are 195cm long. Young people these days are generally taller, especially if it's an international hostel that also caters to Dutch and German guests. While the cost of replacing all the beds is high, it would be great if they could set up a couple of rooms with longer beds.

My second hostel experience, and it was excellent, a huge improvement compared to previous ones. First, the room was very clean, and everyone was quiet, so I slept comfortably until 9 AM 😍😘. Second, the common areas were also very clean, with plenty of sinks, and the toilets were spotless. Lastly, it's very close to two metro stations on Line 1, and Shanghai Railway Station is just a ten-minute walk away. Thanks to the front desk for their hospitality~

The hostel is near the North Square of the train station, but it still takes about ten minutes to walk there. It's located in an old residential area in the old town, and it's quite clean. The first floor has a bar and common areas, while the rooms are upstairs. I'm grateful to the owner for the free upgrade to a double room; it was a comfortable stay. The only issues were a power outage on the last day and a window that was difficult to close, leading to a lot of noise from outside in the mornings.

The owner also provided complimentary coffee. The service felt more like a hotel than a hostel, and it's mostly young people staying here. Overall, it exceeded my expectations, and the price was reasonable.

The hostel is a bit of a walk from the subway, so it's best to come by bike. The place is right by the road and quite noticeable. You need to pay a 100 RMB deposit for your stay, and then you'll get a clean set of bedding (sheets, duvet cover, pillowcase), a disposable toothbrush, and a disposable bath towel. Spreading them out yourself ensures the bedding has been changed, which is a bit of a hassle but not too bad! The bathrooms and toilets are shared, but they're all very clean. There are also large lockers in the room for storage, which is really practical! I saw quite a few foreigners at the hostel, truly living up to its 'international hostel' name, and it seems quite popular. The location is also relatively central. If I need a place again, I'd definitely consider staying here. The experience was pretty good overall~

Extremely satisfied! The location is excellent, and both the interior and exterior decor are very well done. Disinfected slippers and bath towels are provided, and the duvet covers are changed for each new guest. There were quite a few international guests staying here.

This hostel opened last year. It's clean, has a great atmosphere, and the location is good. It's a really nice hostel. My roommates were all great and not noisy at all. The bathrooms were clean, tidy, and sufficient.
15.09.2025 Guest
The room was clean and the location was super convenient, close to both Shanghai Railway Station and Hongkou Football Stadium. I booked a 6-bed dorm and got upgraded to a 4-bed dorm, big thanks to Xiao Qu and Xiao Ding at the front desk! There's also a common area on the first floor where you can eat or work.
