I had a wonderful stay at Hi Cozy Hostel! The rooms were clean and well designed, creating a very cozy environment. The atmosphere of the hostel was warm and inviting, perfect for relaxing and meeting new people. But what truly made my stay unforgettable, though, was meeting Liz. I feel incredibly lucky to have met her. She was so kind and helpful throughout my stay. Liz made my experience unforgettable. Highly recommended!

This was a 2 night stopover for us and it was perfect. Being out of the tourist area meant we had a quiet place to go to home to but so easy to access everything on the excellent Metro system. The room was fabulous: spacious, super big comfy bed, excellent shower and very clean. I would highly recommend staying here while visiting Shanghai. We also had fabulous service from Mr Johnson, who made it his personal mission to make sure we were and had everything we needed.

The location is great, just need a bit time to find the place for the first time. There are few shopping mall nearby within walking distance 5 minutes. The building out looking is a bit old, but the inside is great and Morden. It is actually a local residential building, therefore do not expect for a reception.

The Quality for the price is amazing! Centrally located, can't hear noises from the outside, very comfy bed, good aircon, complementary night snacks are like light dinner. There are many food spots around as well. Really loved it. It's better than the pictures.
