Every time I visit Shanghai, I stay here. It's incredibly close to both the metro station and the train station, easily within walking distance! What's more, the environment is really good, it offers great value for money, and the service is quite warm and welcoming. The room's cleanliness and condition are decent. Overall, I'm very satisfied. To find such conditions right next to a transportation hub in Shanghai, where every inch of land is precious, is quite impressive.

It's exceptionally quiet at night, and this place is very clean. They also have rules to ensure everyone's comfortable and harmonious stay. The common area is the best, with a TV and a fridge. You can also use the coffee machine in the morning. Laundry and drying facilities are available, which makes daily life very convenient. A cleaning lady comes every day; she's very thorough and meticulously cleans each room. The front desk staff are also very friendly and easy to get along with. Plus, it's only a few dozen meters from the subway station. Overall, I'm very satisfied.

The hotel location is very convenient just a short walk to Shanghai railway station (HSR & Metro). You feel really safe as the police station is just in front of the hotel. There's fast food like KFC, McDonald's and some convenience stores nearby. At night, there were nights that were quiet and the other night a bit noisy because at the front of the hotel there's a parking lot for van deliveries. The hotel's room is spacious enough for us and it's being cleaned every day. The breakfast is so-so. Breakfast starts at 6.40am-9am. Overall, we had a nice stay here and will definitely stay here again if ever we'll go back to Shanghai As a side note. Wear a mask if you hate smoking. Outside the railway station there are a bunch of people smoking here and there.

We enjoyed our stay and felt that the hotel had a great price-to-quality ratio. The staff even provided us with a power adapter so we didn’t have to find and buy one ourselves which was very helpful. The room was quiet, the water pressure in the shower was good, and the bathroom was well equipped. Overall, we slept very well — I especially liked that there was a choice between a soft pillow and a firm pillow. I was worried that there are no windows since I am a bit claustrophobic but it felt completely ok. So do not mind about windows if you are staying for a few days and view from the window doesn’t matter for you

Exceptional rating, beyond perfect! I wholeheartedly recommend Shanghai Yunjian LeChao Youth Hostel! ✨ I chose Yunjian LeChao Youth Hostel for my trip to Shanghai this time, and the experience was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Everything was top-notch, offering incredible value for money! 🌟 Prime Location & Transportation The location is simply superb! It's right on Guangdong Road, just a few minutes' walk from Nanjing East Road Metro Station. It's super close to Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street and The Bund, reachable in just a few minutes. Getting around and shopping nearby are incredibly convenient. It's also very close to Yu Garden and People's Square, making your sightseeing routes completely hassle-free. 🧹 Spotlessly Clean & Tidy The entire place is newly renovated, and the cleanliness is impeccable! Rooms are meticulously cleaned daily, and the beds and bedding are fresh, odor-free, and changed with each new guest. The public washrooms and toilets are dry-wet separated, consistently fresh and odor-free, with every corner neatly maintained. It was truly comfortable to stay in. 💖 🤗 Warm & Attentive Service The owner and staff are incredibly gentle and patient. Check-in was efficient, and they patiently answered all my questions about sightseeing or luggage storage. Their service was enthusiastic and thorough throughout, creating a wonderfully warm atmosphere without any perfunctory treatment. 🛏️ Complete & Well-Equipped Facilities The hostel's hardware facilities are new and comprehensive. Each bunk bed has an individual reading light and charging socket, offering great privacy. The public common area is spacious and bright with excellent natural light, perfect for daily storage and relaxation. Essential amenities are well-provided, so you can just bring your bags and move in. 🌉 Super Convenient for Sightseeing It boasts a prime location in the city center, with core attractions right outside the door! During the day, you can explore Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street for shopping and sightseeing. In the evening, walk to The Bund to enjoy the breathtaking river views and night scenery. It's also not far from Suzhou Creek and Yu Garden, saving you a lot of travel time without long journeys. The geographical location is truly unbeatable. Overall, my stay experience was perfect. I couldn't find a single fault with the environment, service, facilities, or the proximity to attractions. I highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Shanghai! I'll definitely choose it again next time! [Smart]

The hotel is near People's Square station, with a SF Express right next door – super convenient for shipping off extra luggage and traveling light. There are tons of food options nearby, including Sichuan cuisine, Guizhou stir-fry, Lanzhou pulled noodles, Xiaoyang Shengjian (pan-fried buns), and even the famous Butterfly Pastries from International Hotel, which always have a long queue. New World Department Store and the Shimao Tower are also right next door, making shopping and dining incredibly easy.

Facilities: The toilet is very smart with automatic flushing. The only minor drawback is that the charging port by the bed isn't very good, which was a bit inconvenient (but luckily there's another charging port on the desk ♥). Hygiene: Clean and tidy. Environment: Great! We were here for tourism, and it's just a few hundred meters walk to Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. You can even walk to The First Department Store C Building and Bailian ZX. Service: The front desk staff was especially nice, speaking very softly and gently!

While the reception area is relatively small, the room itself was a pleasant surprise—spacious, well-designed, and part of a nicely refurbished studio apartment setup. It had a cozy, home-like feel that made the stay especially comfortable and relaxing. The room was also clean and well-maintained, adding to the overall positive experience. The apartment corridor leading to the room was decent, clean, and well-lit, giving a good sense of safety and upkeep. Another highlight is the location—it’s conveniently situated near East Nanjing Pedestrian Street, with plenty of eateries just downstairs, making dining and exploring very easy. The only downside would be the toilet, which felt a bit small compared to the rest of the unit. That aside, it’s a great option for those looking for a comfortable, homey stay in a prime and lively area.

AAnonymous UserFirst off, the location is great, and the hotel exterior is quite beautiful. However, the room felt smaller than advertised, and most importantly, the hygiene was unacceptable. After checking in, I found two small, crawling bugs on the bedding. I switched rooms, only to find used tissues under the sink from a previous guest. The hotel offered to compensate us with a few days of breakfast from their food truck. Still, cleanliness is paramount, and for this price point, this level of hygiene is truly unacceptable. On the positive side, the staff service was good; they helped with food deliveries and other requests.

AAnonymous UserThe hotel is very convenient for travellers using the metro, as it is located right next to Xinzha Road Exit 5 on Line 1, which made getting around very easy. We booked the smart room with one queen bed and one single bed for three people, and the room was spacious enough for a comfortable stay. One of the highlights was how modern and digital the room felt, with most functions controlled through smart panels. The room was well equipped with a large TV, washing machine, hair dryer, oven, and a toilet with a bidet and heated seat. The only thing missing was a refrigerator. For ironing, there is a standing garment steamer available on Level 6 near the washer and dryer area. If you need to iron delicate items such as headscarves, it may be better to bring your own iron. Housekeeping was acceptable overall, though there is room for improvement. During our stay, we noticed that some hair on the floor had not been swept or vacuumed properly, and the table was not always cleaned thoroughly. Service at the front desk was generally fine. One receptionist we met during check-in spoke English, but not all staff were comfortable communicating in English, so using a translator app was sometimes necessary. Food delivery was also convenient, with pick-up available next to the reception area. We were told that food can sometimes be delivered directly to the room by robot, although we did not experience this ourselves. Overall, this hotel is a great option for travellers looking for a modern and convenient stay in a very accessible location, especially if easy metro access is a priority.

GGuest UserI really liked the room; it was very clean, comfortable, and quite smart! The location is great, close to Nanjing East Road metro station, specifically Exit 1, and Exit 4 for Line 10 is also very near. You're right by the Bund and Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, which is super convenient. There are also tons of great food options nearby. I absolutely loved my stay here and will definitely come back again! The front desk staff, especially the young man, provided excellent service 👍

GGuest UserFirst, the good points: The washing machine and dryer were super convenient, allowing us to wash our clothes during our trip – everything felt clean and tidy! It rained the day we arrived, so we were stuck inside, but the kids had a blast playing house on both floors. It's about a six-minute walk to the metro station, which is decent. The Bund is just a ten-minute walk away, perfect for admiring the historic architecture and the Oriental Pearl Tower, and experiencing the two different worlds along the Huangpu River. If you turn left out of the hotel and walk one block, you'll find a breakfast spot selling buns, porridge, and eggs at market prices. Now for the downsides: Don't expect much in the way of room service or friendly smiles from the staff.

GGuest UserI had a fantastic experience staying at the [Shanghai Yijun Hotel] during my trip to Shanghai! The location is absolutely perfect; the subway entrance is right outside, making it just a few stops to popular spots like Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street and Chenghuang Temple. After a long day of sightseeing, it was wonderful to come back to a spotlessly clean room with a meticulously made bed. The front desk staff, especially the ladies, were incredibly friendly and always greeted us with a smile whenever we entered or left. The price was very reasonable, and given the excellent service and cleanliness, it offers truly amazing value for money!

AAlpianiI found the location from Amaps with chinese writing, and then my room is up at 3rd floor, without elevator, for a room with 2 bed (1 bunkbed) is too small, tiny, I can't open my luggage, the heater is from AC directly touch my bed (upper bunk) So the lower bed is empty but messy, then I took the upper bed, the next say I put my medicine on my bed, I didn't ask my room to be cleaned alright, but they cleaned it anyway, just my bed (the upper bed), the lower bed they didn't tidy it up (maybe they thought I used the lower bed), when I came back to my room my medicine is gone (my upper bed is tidy), I ask the receptionist and they asked the cleaner uncle & aunty but they said they didn't know I've searched everywhere in my belonging even on trash can, I didn't find it, unfortunately though
