9.5/10

Outstanding

GGuest UserThe overall experience was excellent! The hotel environment was quiet and clean, with complete and functional facilities. The front desk service was attentive and helpful. The location in Xuhui District is very convenient. The room size was just right, offering great privacy, which made for a very relaxing stay. I will definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm in Shanghai.

Lemon Hotel

NNinidianxiaThe hotel's location is excellent, making it convenient for getting around. However, precisely because of its prime location, the room rates are quite high, and the rooms themselves are rather small. Breakfast is delivered to the room and includes steamed buns, eggs, and soy milk, which I personally found quite good. The room was also relatively quiet. If you prioritize convenience and don't mind smaller room sizes or more basic facilities, this place is a good choice.

GGuest UserHad everything we needed, for the price paid. Very comfortable stay and I thought it was worth it. Close to where we needed to be. It was hard to find from the address but it was nice regardless and surrounding area was very chill and in a more local area. I don't have an image of the hotel itself but I have pictures of surrounding area and the street where room was.

JJanelleDAT ChenThe hotel proactively reached out to us a few days before our stay and set up a WeChat service group where all check-in information was communicated. During our stay, whenever we needed something or had a question, the staff in the group were very quick and helpful with their responses. The hotel's decor is quite artistic, and all the facilities are in good condition and clean. A special shout-out to the washer-dryer combo – with a family, we have a lot of laundry daily, so this machine was incredibly practical. Furthermore, the hotel's location is excellent. It's close to the road but surprisingly quiet. The only suggestion I have is to provide a few bottles of complimentary water.

GGuest UserMy experience at this Airbnb was absolutely perfect, I just have to write a long review to praise it! First off, the location – it's truly unbeatable! Just a few minutes' walk from the subway station, making it easy to get anywhere. Nanjing Road and the Bund, core attractions, are only a few stops away. Downstairs, there's a convenience store and a popular café, super convenient for late-night snacks or a good coffee in the morning. Even more surprisingly, the B&B is tucked away in a quiet alley, truly achieving 'bustling outside, tranquil inside,' completely free from city center noise. The transportation convenience is beyond words. A direct subway ride from Hongqiao Airport, no transfers needed. The nearest subway exit is less than a 5-minute walk, and there are many bus routes nearby. Whether you're heading to Disneyland, Yu Garden, or Lujiazui, they're all basically within a 30-minute commute. Taxis are also readily available on the street, and the host thoughtfully prepared a local transportation guide. Now, let's talk about the host's service – it deserves full marks! From the moment the booking was confirmed, the host proactively contacted us, sending a super detailed graphic check-in guide, clearly marking which subway exit to take and the quickest way to get there. On the day of check-in, they even waited at the entrance to help us carry our luggage upstairs. The room was stocked with complimentary bottled water, snacks, and even disposable raincoats and masks – the attention to detail was incredibly thoughtful. We asked for local food recommendations a few times, and the host responded instantly; the recommended local restaurants were all very authentic. Upon check-out, they even gave us a small bag of Shanghai specialty pastries as a farewell gift. This kind of personal touch is something hotels simply can't match. The room itself was an even greater surprise. It was much larger than expected; in a city like Shanghai, where every inch is precious, being able to stay in such a spacious B&B was truly lucky. The living room and bedroom are clearly separated, more than enough space for two people, and even suitable for a small gathering. The decor is a minimalist, natural wood style, with comfortable color schemes, and every piece of furniture feels high-quality. The bedding was exceptionally soft, and there were both firm and soft pillows to choose from, allowing even someone like me who has trouble sleeping in new places to get a good night's rest. The cleanliness was impeccable; everything from under the bed to the windowsill was spotless, and even the bathroom drain was sparkling clean. Regarding the environment, the window overlooks a quiet small courtyard, and the morning sunlight streaming in was beautiful. Green plants adorned the room perfectly, and there was a faint aroma of essential oils. The host provided a smart toilet, an XGIMI projector, and a Marshall speaker, making watching movies on the sofa at night an absolute delight. The soundproofing was also excellent; we stayed for three nights and were never bothered by noise. In short, this stay far exceeded my expectations. If you want to deeply explore Shanghai, and also desire a comfortable stay with convenient transportation and a home-like feeling, this B&B is definitely the top choice. Next time I visit Shanghai, I will definitely stay here again! I highly recommend it to all my friends!

The place is easy to find, even though we need to walk a quiet distance from the nearest station. Still reachable though. There’s also many stores, cafes, and restaurants nearby. The hosts are very helpful and professional. I would recommend to stay here bcs it offers excellent value for money…

IInf3rnytravelsWorth the price for what u paid for…housekeeping was very nice but night front desk reception was not attentive at all when we asked for helped but was okay…location to go Suzhou using metro was great too and metro was nearby…only thing is we have to drag our big luggage’s from the front gate to inside the hotel which was a bit troublesome but overall cleanliness was neutral / recommended if u want a affordable and comfortable hotel
