Liked this place! The location is super convenient — just about 300 meters from East Nanjing Road Station. You can take Exit 1, 2, or 3, but I highly recommend Exit 2 since it has escalators both up and down, and you pop up right inside the Hengji Celebrity Shopping Center, which makes it super easy, especially if you're carrying bags. The walk from the station to the hotel is nice too — lots of local food spots along the way. There are two small streets (Tianjin Rd and Ningbo Rd) with tons of restaurants, probably around 20 in total. Good prices and great variety.
At the front desk, only one staff member spoke English, but they were all really helpful and friendly. Google Translate worked fine with the rest. Big shout-out to the housekeeping team — they were amazing. The room was cleaned daily, towels changed, and water refilled — very on point.
We stayed in a family room, which is a duplex (two floors). The first room we got didn’t have a window and was a bit tight — hard to open luggage — but luckily the AC wasn’t working, so we got moved to another room with a window facing the street. That room was much better — clean, bright, and spacious enough for 3–4 people comfortably, just like in the photos. The air conditioning was super cold, which was great after a long day out, and the bed and pillows were soooo soft and comfy! There was a slight cigarette smell at first, but it went away after a day or two. Blackout curtains were great. Even though our room faced the street, it wasn’t noisy at night — Beijing Rd is surprisingly quiet, especially late.
There’s a Lawson right next to the hotel, open 24/7, which was super handy. Also, there are a ton of shared bikes parked right outside the entrance — every color and brand you can think of — so getting around was easy. The bus stop is close, and you can get a Didi taxi right from the front door.
