Fishion Home (Changshu Road Station)

The actual location of the unit is not as stated. They have several units around the area. The one I got is about 8min walk to Shaanxinan metro station, which is also a metro-interchange lines 1, 10 and 12. Several malls and eateries are within walking distance. Locating the unit was not straight forward for foreigners as it is situated within their local residential area. This gave us a peek into the life of the locals which is a nice and rich experience. The unit itself is pretty well kept. It's equipped with TV, kettle, rice cooker, stove, pots and pans, laundry and dryer, heater. It's a loft unit with a king-sized mattress at the loft accompanied with a simple tatami tea-table. The ground level equipped with a sofa and a queen-sized bed. The toilet is the most challenging part for this unit. As the olden-style doors opened, you will be greeted by a small wash basin, just enough to do the morning wash-up. Moving inwards, it's a shower area with a very very simple shower curtain. Moving further in, will be the WC throne. The throne will be wet when shower. We are a family of 3 with a teenage boy. Generally we are happy with our 4 night stay there. The price is reasonable. All communications with the host was via Wechat. They responded to any enquiries very promptly and were very helpful. We were allowed to extend our check-out timing too.

Great location, fine price. But it needs attention. This place is offered by several companies, and you notice it as soon as you enter. It's quite worn down and needs a revamp, proper clean etc. Dusty, not vacuumed well (or not at all). Christmas tree is still there in May, dead plants. Toilets were still wet when we arrived. Dirty bath mats lying in the bathrooms. Kitchen utensils were wet too. Glass walls and mirrors with stains. Service company tried its best to compensate and cleaning lady came by the same afternoon to do another sweep, which was helpful but still not made it for the full 100%. That’s the first impression. Then the master bed is old and too hard in comparison to new bed in other room. Blankets are too small for the size of the bed. But most importantly the plumbing needs work. The toilet next to master bedroom makes an awful noise couple of times per night (old or bad plumbing). Basically slept not so well 2 out of 3 nights. Down the line. Probably value for money in Shanghai especially considering its location, but likely not staying again.

A small apartment with good location. Too bad the cleanliness of this room need to be improved. There was still dust on the floor and also the fridge smelled funny. There’s kitchen in the apartment, but there was not even kitchen utensils. No plates, nor fork, spoon, chopsticks. There was just 2 pots on the stove. So I guess that’s just for decoration. Also, there needs something to be done with the router (?) blinking light. It was too bright at night when the lights are off.

Good location but the entrance is a bit creepy. Worth the price tho. The cleanliness of toilet should be improved.

Very nice neighborhood, great location

No good as shown on pics
