Homeinn Plus Hotel Shanghai Guozhan Jiuting Center

Like last year, we chose this hotel for our stay in Shanghai because of its proximity to where our son, his wife and their son, Dominic, our first grandchild live. This time we booked a larger room facing North Huting Road and it was a good choice, although it did have its consequences in the form of street noise - Shanghai's streets are loud and full of life. However, you get used to it quickly and it was surprisingly quiet at night. The room had a very large, comfortable bed and you could sleep very well. The bedding was changed very often, we found everything we needed in the bathroom and the nice ladies cleaned the room, changed towels and added bottles of water every day. The air conditioning worked very well and was very useful because we arrived in Shanghai at the hot beginning of May. We had an electric kettle and cups at our disposal in the small kitchen bar, we also received tea bags and we could prepare hot drinks and snacks in the morning and evening. It's just a pity that the room didn't have a small fridge to cool drinks - it would have been a great addition to its equipment. We ate normal meals (lunch, afternoon tea, etc.) on Huting Rd and other places in Shanghai, usually together with our Shanghai family. We could charge our smartphones and other electronic devices directly from USB and regular sockets without any problems. Despite the language barrier, the hotel staff always tried to help us as much as possible, and if necessary, we used the language assistance of our son and his wife. On the day of arrival, and then, on the last day of our stay, we could leave our luggage in the care of the hotel reception without any worries. In total, we spent 18 days and nights in this hotel and we will remember this stay very fondly,
