    A homestay full of experience! Service, health, facilities are not to say! The room was very comfortable and functional, as comfortable as at home~ The location of the room is easy to find, very clean, when contacting the owner, he is always there, good communication, there was a small episode in the middle, the friend's watch was forgotten in the room, the owner was enthusiastic to help communicate, and finally we found the watch left in the corner, really thank you very much!

    This is a very nice homestay! It is located on the rooftop without soundproofing problem here, which is different from other homestays in Shanghai. The rooftop location is really quiet, the elevator is very fast, you can enjoy the sunrise in the morning and it is really comfortable to drink beer and watch the night view on the rooftop in the evening

    After staying in so many homestays, I really want to strongly recommend this one. First of all, the location of the homestay is very convenient, and it's easy to go anywhere. Secondly, the rooms are very clean and tidy, making the stay particularly comfortable. The staff are very patient in answering questions and are very enthusiastic in providing us with a lot of travel tips. I am very satisfied with the choice of this homestay for this trip to Shanghai.

    This homestay is truly astonishing! From the moment you step in, you are drawn to its warmth and comfort. The rooms are exquisitely decorated, with every detail revealing the host's care and taste. The bed is soft and comfortable, and after a good night's sleep, you feel rejuvenated. The service also made me very satisfied, warm but not overly intrusive, and the recommended local restaurants were great as well. I will definitely stay here again!
