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.

Super location for anyone who wants to be in the French Concession. It's a 3 minute walk from Anfu Lu. The staff in the hotel and the very good Italian restaurant downstairs were all so lovely, friendly, helpful, warmhearted that my days of coming and going to and from Shanghai and staying with them at intervals were a joy! And from a very practical point of view, the washing machine in my bathroom was a very nice surprise! And the staff really went to trouble to make sure that guests had something they loved for breakfast. Big thanks to Xiao Zu (spelling?!), Aiyi, Guido, Monica, David and everyone who made my stay there so lovely!
