I really enjoyed my stay here. It has a big and open common room which is connected to a very nice out door area. You can find a rather big collection of books, dvds and magazines. The rooms are clean, have lockers, table, chairs and each bed has a reading light. The staff is very helpful. It is a short... More

We had a lovely stay here at the very beginning of three weeks in China. Suffering with a bit of jet lag and feeling generally overwhelmed having just arrived in China, it was nice to have somewhere so picturesque and peaceful to stay. The communal area is very open plan and opens onto a small courtyard and a fishpond- it... More

Stayed here for a week last summer and it was fantastic. It was my first time staying in a hostel but after staying in so many this last year, I can say it is the best one I've stayed in and plan on going back when I leave China. The lobby and bar area is very modern and trendy, their... More

We stayed in a Deluxe Double EnSuite room for 3 nights and were pleasantly surprised by the room - spacious with decent furnishings, little front porch and a nice en-suite bathroom. The two main down-sides (very slow internet and the fact that it was a little bit outside of the places that we wanted to visit were more than made... More

Pros: + The rooms are really well presented, clean and with a great shower. + Pretty good wifi throughout. + Really relaxed atmosphere and comfortable common area. Cons: - The PCs available to use are very, very slow (60secs to rotate a picture, 5mins to attach one to an email etc.) - The washing line is metal wire and slightly... More

Awesome relationship between quality and price. Located near 3 important subway lines at an incomparable price. Most of the staff speak English quite well. I would only provide better orientation or organize group trips as much hostels do... Oh, and improve just a little bit the cleanliness of the rooms. Everything else is perfect!

This place is a bit away from river Huangpu, but still close enough to all major attractions thanks to the direct metro line (also direct to both airports!). Metro station is however at least 10 minutes away, in case this matters for you. Follow the precise instructions provided by the hotel and you won't miss it! The neighborhood is very... More

Not your typical hostel, I very much doubt anyone in Shanghai beats Rock and Wood at what they do. Everything is super clean, the staff are very pleasant, and the place seems to have been very well planned to be what it is. Multiple plug points on every wall and next to every table, loads of space and a quiet... More

This hostel is great, the rooms are hotel standard, the bar area is clean and open and very comfortable. The drinks and food are cheap and its not far walk to a decent bar/restaurant area and 2 subways. Toilet/bathroom, great. That said, it would have been perfect if not for a few things. Considering on the description it specifically says... More
