Tonight Homestay West Nanjing Road Branch Shanghai

Stayed in the 5 bedroom apartment, we had a large group of 13 and it accommodated us comfortably. The location was fantastic, only a 5 minute walk to Yuyuan garden and 2 minute walk to a shopping centre with restaurants, coffee and a supermarket. The host was super responsive, and any issues were sorted very quickly including a blocked toilet. The view of the Shanghai skyline from the apartment was spectacular

Don't use too much toilet paper, otherwise the toilets may get blocked when flushing

Everything

Nothing

The residential complex is quite old; it is rather dark at night, and the streetlights are dim. However, it is centrally located right on West Nanjing Road, making it very convenient for visiting tourist attractions.

The stairs are quite steep, and the room isn't big enough—it's not suitable for six people.

Good location with good aircon. That’s it.

Very old building with dirty hallways. We were asked what time we were arriving and we told them between 1-2pm. They said ‘no problem’. Upon arrival, the apartment was filthy. The cleaners had not been. We were then told check-in is a 3pm. Well why tell us that between 1-2pm is ok. The property is poorly maintained. The photos however disguise this. Bathroom cupboard doors were falling off. The show drain was blocked. No washing detergent for the washing machine or dishes. They supply dishwasher machine powder l, but there is no dishwasher!!! The shower flooded with mould showing from this being an ongoing issue. Found used cotton buds even after the clearness. Was offered ¥500 back on my Alipay, but now I can’t move it off Alipay to my Australian credit card. Alipay was terrible to use. We use booking.com for its secure payment, but are then forced onto Alipay!!! Overall, not happy. Oh and the beds are like concrete, even compared to other places we have staying in (8 different hotels across China) There are also no managers onsite. All your communication is through What’s App so you never talk to anyone face to face!!!
