First of all, I didn't chose this hotel myself. Due to Covid situation, all passengers are required to do 14 + 7 hotel quarantine & self-isolation in appointed hotels arranged randomly upon arriving in Shanghai starting from mid or late January 2022.
After landing in Shanghai on February 6th, 2022, I took me almost 5 hours to go through all the processes (including waiting time in lines) and finally settled in the hotel room.

Frankly speaking, the building itself of the hotel already looks horrible, at least 50/ 60 years old with a dark lobby which couldn't even fit in our group of guests who arrived at the same time.

I was lucky enough being assigned on the 8th floor, top floor of the building to have an duplex room, with 2 queen beds on each floor to give you a spacious feeling during my quarantine. However, I was shocked when i entered the room, mould on the marble around the basin, felt like been there forever but no one cares. Dirty floor! Dust and hair everywhere, as someone coming from hospitality background and in the middle of Omicron outbreak, I highly doubt the staff managed to clean the room at all?!

It took me quiet sometime to basically clean up the floor and table, side table, removed one of the chairs with lots of stains and covered the other one with bags so that i could took a sit...

Luckily hotel allows delivery with dry goods and some cleaning products which are packed, so that I could do another round of clean up on the next days after i got everything i needed.

I tried to made myself home there as I had to spent 14 nights there. I am grateful that the staircase and extra space allowed me to set up my exercise routine to move a bit during these 14 days. And it got to the point that i wish i don't have to move after 14 days as I didn't wanna bother to clean another room again (of course I couldn't), which i did my best to maintain the cleanliness level in our room.

All in all, I will never stay in this motel again, poor wifi, poor maintained or managed hotel. I hope everyone will pack enough of cleaning wet towels if you need to travel and quarantine in china. Coz you will never know where you will end up with until the last moment. Good luck!

14 days quarantine in a motel

This place was just awful. The staff doesn't speak any English at all, so even though we were told it would be 400 yuan, they charged us 500 for the night. But of course you cannot argue about the price because no one speaks any English. 
As for sleeping, forget about it. The beds are like concrete. So hard you have to toss and turn all night to stop the bruising. The windows are paper thin and street noise goes on all night. The only nice part was the shower.
They were also undergoing a renovation so the hallways were filled with mattresses, construction work. All and all an absolutely terrible experience.

Might as well sleep on the floor

You really do get what you pay for with this hotel, a bed, old TV and a bathroom.
The bedding was old and worn out, possibly dirty, wasn't game enough to look!
The hotel is a 20-30 minute cab ride into The Bund costing around Y40.
There is no wifi, reception spoke no english, and the breakfast is defiantly orientated toward asian patrons.
I wouldn't recommend this place to ANYONE!

.... although I would recommend the fast food place down the road .... YTK? Two Huge chicken burger meals for AUD$5!

Don't bother!

Stayed one night here as a stop over before an early flight from Pudong Airport.

Minimum charge taxi ride from Shanghai Railway station.

We told them on booking that we would arrive late, but still received a phone call to say that if we did not check in before 10pm then they would not hold the room.

Check in Ok but it was not busy. We were suprised to find that they wanted 350 RMB per night deposit at check in. as we didn't have this much RMB (last night before going home) had to use the credit card as deposit. Then paid bill in cash next day - this worked OK.

Hotel lobby basic
Corridors shabby and bare
Room, grubby, walls badly marked, curtains did not pull accross window fully and were of very poor quality.
Bathroom was OK and basic toiletries provided.
Clothes hanging space minimal 4-5 hangers.
Beds were comfortable enough and bedding clean, but not sure if it felt slightly damp.

Just out of the motel and to the right there is a road full of street food stalls, we didn't eat here as had already eaten, but the food looked good.

Not for me

This hotel was absolutely horrible!  I stayed here for a few nights on a school trip to China.  The entrance is definitely deceiving.  Upon arriving, you think you've arrived at a decent hotel until you start checking in.  Check in was chaos since none of the staff spoke English.  It took about 40 minutes to check in our group of less than 10 rooms.  Our group ended up staying in rooms that were separated from each other.  I visited a few of the other rooms that our group stayed in.  Each room seemed to have a different layout and amount of space.  The room I stayed in was small and dirty.  The beds were as hard as sleeping on a piece of wood with sheets and a pillow.  The hotel was located on a busy street so sleeping was not easy.  All you would hear all night was people screaming and honking their horns and cars driving by at all hours of the night.  The showers were so disgusting that we showered with slippers on.  The showers would flood the whole bathroom floor by the time you were done.  The bathrooms were so little it was hard to move around.  The only thing I probably liked about the hotel was that it was located in the vicinity of restaurants and little shops.  Other than that, I would NEVER recommend this hotel to anyone!


Never again!

This place is the worst.  I'll just write a list, as writing a review would take weeks:

1.  No carpets in corridors, which means noise, noise, NOISE!
2.  Paper thin walls, which means TV noise and sounds of a more intimate nature at all hours.
3. Shower cubicle leaks.
4. Bed like a block of concrete (only less comfortable).
5. (minor point) HBO listed on TV channel list, but it doesn't work.
6. Total mayhem at check-in.
7. Creaking doors, slamming doors, banging at all hours of the day and night.
8. Cleaning the floors at 2am with a mop and metal bucket - hardly very quiet...

Avoid this hotel.  Even at £20 a night it is a rip-off.
