Location is great - right in the centre of Chunxi Road/Taikoo Li area, short walk from the metro station. Room itself was quite nice. Beds were on the hard side, but standard for China. Windows were sound-proofed well, but unfortunately the doors were not - can hear everything from the corridor quite clearly. Luckily didn’t this disturb our sleep too much, but really depends on the other guests.
Bathroom was clean but feels quite grimy due to the dirty grouting and old tiles.
Vibe of the place is ok, aimed at the backpacker crowd, and staff speak good English.
One thing to avoid at all costs is the laundry room. Not only is it not free, it’s also very unhygienic. Washed clothes in machine 1 and found a live maggot on a sock afterwards. Really disgusting. The staff did not seem particularly concerned when I told them, they just paid (remotely, didn’t even come to inspect the machine) for a second wash in the other machine. They didn’t offer any other help or suggestions, as the washing machine setup is outsourced to a separate company. Thank god the dryer had a sterilisation option (which I paid extra for myself) or I think I would have thrown away all my clothes at that point.
I have washed my clothes in hostel/hotel laundry rooms across China and never encountered something like this 🤢.
Overall would not recommend staying here.
