Xangai Hostels

I found this place by looking for a neighborhood with a bit of nightlife and local energy, and it ended up being a great fit — especially for the price. I was expecting a more traditional hostel setup, but it’s actually a hybrid between a capsule hotel and a hostel. My room had six capsule-style beds, each with a clean, modern design and a surprisingly cozy feel. The lighting inside the pods was especially well done — soft, warm, and diffused through wood finishes instead of harsh LED lighting. As someone who works visually, I really appreciated that detail. From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly helpful. There was a bit of a language barrier, but between their effort and translation apps, communication was easy. They got me checked in smoothly, offered small touches like cookies at the front desk, and provided essentials like slippers, a toothbrush, and even a disposable bath towel — which I hadn’t seen before. The building itself is quite new, so there’s that “new construction” smell in some areas, and like many places in Shanghai, there’s a bit of cigarette smell in common areas and bathrooms. That said, my room itself was clean and didn’t have any smoke smell. The mattress was very comfortable — I actually scored a 99 sleep score during my stay. I got lucky with a quiet roommate, but overall the setup felt private, secure, and well-designed for rest. The bathrooms were mostly clean and new, though there were some early issues with drainage in the showers. Nothing major, but worth noting. One of the highlights for me was the common area — a bright, warm space with large windows where you can eat, work, or just relax. It’s open 24/7 and stocked with free tea, coffee, and even a really cool water dispenser where you can choose exact temperature and volume. Small detail, but very useful. The staff continued to impress throughout my stay — helping me with lockers, local apps like Alipay and WeChat, and even being flexible when I accidentally missed booking an extra night. They were also kind enough to hold my luggage until midnight on my last day. As for the location — this really depends on your travel style. I didn’t see many other foreigners staying there, and it didn’t have a typical “hostel social” vibe. But for me, that was a plus. It felt very local, with tons of restaurants, cafes, bike access, and easy transit nearby. I was able to explore the city more like a resident than a tourist, which I always prefer. For around $15 a night, this place offers incredible value. If you’re looking for something polished, social, or upscale, this might not be your spot. But if you want a clean, modern, local experience at a great price — it’s hard to beat.

After staying in the first room on the first night, I booked another room in the same hotel for the second night. This room was slightly more expensive (around 10 RMB more) but it had a window facing the road. The room had all the same basic amenities as the first one, including Wi-Fi, slippers, dental kit, shower gel, towels, and a hairdryer. The cleanliness was also just as good. The room was very clean with no dust, and the bathroom was neat and well maintained. Compared with the first room, this one was slightly larger and felt more comfortable mainly because of the window. The window provided natural light and ventilation, which made the room feel much more open and pleasant. Overall, everything I mentioned in my previous review about the hotel—such as the cleanliness, basic amenities, reasonable price, and convenient location—also applies to this room. The only difference is that this room is slightly bigger and has a window, which makes it a bit more comfortable. If you are deciding between the two, paying a little extra for the window room is worth it. It is still very affordable for this location and provides a more comfortable stay. ⸻ 在第一晚入住没有窗户的房间之后，第二晚我仍然选择住在同一家酒店，不过订了一个稍微贵一点的房间（大约贵了10元左右）。这个房间有一扇面向马路的窗户。 这个房间和第一晚的房间一样，配备了所有基本设施，例如 Wi-Fi、拖鞋、牙具、沐浴露、毛巾以及吹风机。房间的卫生状况也同样很好，非常干净，没有灰尘，浴室也整洁干净。 和第一晚的房间相比，这个房间的面积稍微大一点，而且因为有窗户，所以整体感觉更加舒适。窗户带来了自然采光和自然通风，让房间感觉更加通透和舒适。 总体来说，我在之前评价中提到的优点，比如房间干净、设施齐全、价格合理以及位置方便，在这个房间里同样适用。唯一的区别是这个房间稍微大一点，并且有窗户，因此住起来更加舒服。 如果需要在两个房型之间选择，我会建议多花一点点钱选择带窗户的房间。价格依然很实惠，但整体住宿体验会更好。

Arrived late at night near the Bund, completely exhausted and dragging my luggage, but the 24-hour front desk still greeted me kindly. When checking in, they thoughtfully reminded me about the locker and laundry room locations. The hallways were clean and odorless, and the bed was soft and warm. The cleaning staff tidied the restrooms multiple times a day, and there was 24-hour hot water available on demand. In my free time, I enjoyed chatting about travel stories in the common area, and the hosts were genuinely engaging. It's an affordable stay, yet full of thoughtful touches – a stable and healing little corner even when you're far from home.

A experiência geral é boa. A disposição do albergue é boa, com quartos na área externa, enquanto os banheiros ficam no centro. Os vasos sanitários e a área do chuveiro são separados para homens e mulheres, mas os lavatórios são mistos. Você precisará pagar pela toalha, se precisar. Os funcionários não falam inglês muito bem, mas são simpáticos e tentarão ajudar. O albergue fica a apenas 5 minutos a pé da estação de metrô Laoximen.

A localização é excelente. O metrô e as lojas são extremamente próximos. No entanto, o espaço é bem pequeno e um pouco difícil de encontrar. Perguntar por aí ajudará você a encontrar o albergue facilmente. O quarto é bem pequeno e ideal para viajantes com pouca bagagem. Tive alguns problemas com uma mala grande, pois não havia espaço suficiente para abri-la. Os funcionários foram super simpáticos e prestativos. Eles estavam dispostos a ajudar e auxiliar.

Esta é a primeira vez que fico num albergue da juventude em Xangai. A localização é muito boa, muito perto da rua pedonal Nanjing Road e da estrada Wukang. Cento e vinte e uma noites em quarto individual, muito confortável Higiene: O quarto é limpo e arrumado, e o banheiro e os produtos de higiene pessoal são ótimos Atendimento: Muito atencioso, disponibilizando guarda bagagem Ambiente: Nenhum cheiro peculiar, o ambiente circundante é muito bom Instalações: Ar condicionado e dispensador de água Voltarão na próxima vez.

O quarto era exatamente o que eu procurava como viajante individual por uma noite - conveniente e confortável. À noite, ouvi um alarme disparar algumas vezes, mas não houve emergência. De manhã, havia um atendente falando mais inglês que poderia me ajudar a guardar algumas bagagens e ajudar com orientações. A pequena janela me ajudou a saber que horas eram devido ao meu jet lag.

衞生做的很乾凈 設施什麼的應該是翻新過了比較不錯 就是吹風筒老是過熱 然後隔音真的真的太差了，外面人的腳步聲一清二楚，一個人住都聽的有點害怕 離地鐵站有點距離，但是會騎單車就還好

Esta foi a minha segunda vez aqui, e a localização continua sendo estrategicamente conveniente. Shoppings e o metrô ficam a uma curta distância a pé. Desta vez, o quarto era separado daquele em que os entregadores estavam hospedados, então tive uma estadia agradável. No entanto, o banheiro está um pouco mofado e com mau cheiro. Gostaria que o limpassem regularmente com água sanitária.

Está muito frio, o ar condicionado está quebrado, é como se não estivesse ligado, o banheiro não é separado e é super escorregadio, mesmo com calçado ou não, tem pouquíssima água quente, vai sumir cerca de dez minutos, a casa ainda está assim, não esperava que estivesse frio. Mas que tipo de bicicleta você precisa com esse preço, só posso dizer para levar remédio para resfriado e antitérmico quando sair. Quanto ao serviço, a Tia trabalhou muito e ficou no escritório frontal. Ela realmente arrumou as pessoas para o quarto errado, o que me assustou até as noites sem dormir. sobre
