We were amazed by the exceptional authentic experience, live like the locals do in probably the most beautiful neighborhoods of Shanghai close to the buzzing city center with its beautiful trees and old colonial houses. The host was very friendly and helped us with all our questions and supported us with tips and tricks in exceptionally good English. You have to get past the typical old style Chinese entry of the apartments where you really feel like a local and behind the apartment door you get into a modern spacious apartment with a lot of character. I highly recommend this apartment to adventurous people that are able to think outside the box and favour an authentic adventure in Shanghai.
