Dayin International Youth Hostel -Tianzifang & Xintiandi

9.7/10
Excellent
Posted onSep 19, 2026|Bed In 8-Bed Female Dormitory Room
Guest User
Booked an 8-bed dorm, but upon arrival, they kindly upgraded me to a 6-bed dorm. I was on the second floor, and there's no elevator, but the guy at the front desk helped me with my luggage when I checked in and also when I left, which was super helpful for a female traveler 👍. My roommates were all very considerate, and the room was clean, tidy, and quiet.

JITING HOSTEL- Nanjing West Road Metro Station

I moved from a 6-bed female dorm to a 4-bed female dorm, but to my surprise, the 4-bed dorm was actually a bit narrower than the 6-bed one. I didn't expect that. Honestly, I also found the common areas a bit cramped. There are only three showers in the female bathroom, but a plus compared to Hostel No. 1 is that the showers and toilets are separate. Also, their mattresses are thicker than at Hostel No. 1. I dropped something once and checked under the bed, and noticed they even have a pretty big dust mite repellent sachet, which was nice. I think their beds are a bit more comfortable and better to sleep on than at Hostel No. 1. The front desk service was decent too; they'd solve any issues promptly.

Demba Inn (Shanghai Xintiandi Yuyuan Garden The bund store )

The location is great, very close to the subway station, making it convenient to get to The Bund and Nanjing Road. There are also plenty of dining options nearby. The hostel itself is quite clean; both the common areas and bathrooms are regularly tidied, which gives you peace of mind. The front desk staff are very friendly and welcoming without being intrusive. The hostel has a good atmosphere; you can sit and chat or relax in the lobby, which is perfect for solo travelers. The bunk beds have curtains, offering decent privacy, and there are sockets and a small light by the bed – everything you need is there. For this price in Shanghai, it's really excellent value for money. I'd definitely consider staying here again on my next visit.

The front desk staff were incredibly enthusiastic and accommodating, promptly addressing all reasonable requests. They really enhanced my emotional well-being, making for a great experience! The location is fantastic, very close to the train station, and you can get directly to Disneyland without any transfers!

Xianghe Inn (Shanghai Qiantan Lingyan South Road Subway Station)

8.7/10

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。

Weiliu Youth Hostel (Shanghai People's Square Jing'an Joy City Branch)

8.7/10
Posted onAug 29, 2026|Bed In 6-person Room (Females Only)
CNGuest User
The location is a big plus – it's very close to People's Square, making it super convenient to get around Shanghai's attractions by subway. For a city center location, the price-performance ratio was a pleasant surprise. I stayed in a female dorm with six beds. Each bunk had its own curtain, which provided excellent privacy, and there were lockable lockers for valuables. The bedding was changed promptly, and the air conditioning worked well. The public bathrooms were clean and well-maintained, with plenty of sinks. The female shower area was decorated very cutely, and even during peak hours, I didn't have to wait long. The resident cat was very gentle, and petting it during my downtime at the hotel was incredibly therapeutic. There's a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage is very convenient, and there's also a washing machine available.

Dengba Inn (Shanghai Flagship)

Posted onApr 22, 2026|Bed In Guestroom - Single Occupancy (Bunk-Bed) (Females Only,)
Guest User
This place is great! The front desk staff personally showed me to my bed. No eating or loud phone calls are allowed in the rooms, which keeps things quiet. A little foot traffic is totally acceptable. I specifically chose a multi-person dorm to try it out, and it was surprisingly quiet. The bedding was clean, and I didn't have to make my own bed; it was even softer than my college dorm bed. You can order takeout in the common lounge area, and there's self-serve hot water and a microwave at the front desk. The toilet in the bathroom has disposable seat covers, and the shower facilities are good too. Overall, it's truly excellent for a hostel.

Cleanliness: well it is clean. Except for th Comfort room there is a yellowish on the side floor. When you open the door, you will see the snall kitchen and on its front the small comfort room. The bed is big and nice even the cabinets and table. There is no hair blower. The ref is not working. It was a cheapest and nice apartment hotel as it is like a small condo for a couple.

The interior facilities are quite complete, with a cooking area, range hood, and washing machine. It's suitable for long-term stays. The shower drainage isn't very smooth, but the cleanliness is acceptable.
