Excellent
GGuest UserThe隐 (Hidden) Youth Hostel is right by the Exit of Metro Line 9, with Tianzifang and SML Center shopping mall nearby, making it super convenient for getting around and finding food. I heard it just opened recently, so it's clean and tidy with no strange smells. You get fresh sheets and duvet covers to put on yourself, which is reassuringly hygienic. Most of the guests are young people, and there are even some foreigners! The front desk staff, especially Xiao Jing, the handsome guy with long hair, and Xiao Lü, the handsome guy with glasses who speaks excellent English, are both really friendly and lovely. This was my first time staying at a youth hostel, and it was a great experience. I'll definitely be back!

GGuest UserThe room decor was incredibly thoughtful, vintage yet cozy. The cleanliness was impeccable; the floors and room were spotless and odor-free, which is truly a rare find in Shanghai. The common areas were also very comfortable, especially the dining table area which had a fantastic ambiance – it felt great just sitting and relaxing there. 🛋️ The owner was very kind, communication was smooth, and their recommendations were super helpful. Overall, for a short stay in Shanghai, this place was both quiet and unique, offering incredible value for money. I'll definitely choose it again next time!

HHeather AvaOne of the first reasons for selecting this hostel was the location and price alone! It is located in a very central part of Shanghai. It’s a busy street but located in walking distance of trains, many local restaurants and a short DiDi ride to main attractions.
The service is great! Quick, easy and efficient check-in process. The desk staff were great in communicating expectations and the area to lead me.
The bathroom areas are clean, showers within the areas. Blow dryers and sink amenities are present.
I enjoyed my nights rest due to the comfort of the bed and linens provided.

GGuest UserFirst time in Shanghai, and this hostel is conveniently located in a building with easy elevator access. I stayed in a four-person dorm. The room was a bit small, but the natural light was decent, and having an en-suite bathroom was a huge plus. My main gripe is getting into the top bunk; the ladder design makes it quite difficult to climb, you really need to brace yourself to get up there. The front desk service was good. What I really loved was meeting people from all over China and even other countries, and the hostel hosted various activities. It really fit my impression of Shanghai as a diverse and inclusive city.

GGuest UserExcept for the smaller room, the air conditioning, bathroom, and services are all very good. The main reason is that the price is affordable. There are not many cheap places like this in Shanghai.

BBlackeyedsamuraiBooked this hotel last minute, cause my favorite hotel is closing down business this month and i wanted something nearer cause I’m well versed with the surrounding areas, 1: the first red flag is the reception, mail and deliveries are all piled up and falling off shelves, it’s so dirty and humid, it looks like a hoarder’s poach, they’re no waiting chairs, so you’ll stand while they process the guests that came before you until it’s your turn !! The receptionists are very nice and helpful .
2; no room housekeeping ( you’ll have to ask for someone to come take the rubbish and give you towels or change your bedding.
3: THE FILTH!!! The filth is on level 1000/100 the grime made it hard for me to shower with my eyes open, I’m not sure if the place has a manager and if they care about the the wellbeing of the clients , because from what i saw, the cleaners don’t even bother, the floor had food stains from i think when they just opened, the sink🤮 the bathroom ( that one corner gave me the hibbigibeis) the toilet seat was broken
, everything in the bathroom was broken and dirty , then my charger fell in the space which is between the bathroom glass and the bed, got down to retrieve it and i decided it was best to just a get a new charger instead.
The place if cleaned and cared for would be an amazing hotel apartment, it has great amenities , a washing machine a fridge and a drying rack if you upgrade to a bigger room, a kitchenette that would be great if you are interested in cooking and staying longer and it’ has an Aldi downstairs, a gym and lots of other great places surrounding it . I really hope the owners would read this and take it into consideration and carry out serious supervision or else their property will lose value, The hygiene of the hotel does not only ensure the health and wellness of the visitors who sleep in those walls but also keeps the property value up. Dirt And filth only brings it down and puts the health of others at risk . I really hope they change standards.

MM1vdc8o07****It was a great deal, quite busy, and offered good value for money. The facilities were complete, and it was very clean and hygienic. The shared bathrooms were well-equipped, and our room had no strange odors. It was also very quiet at night. Both front desk staff members were very friendly; big thumbs up to them! I'd definitely recommend it to anyone needing accommodation, it's genuinely good.
