O.Live Social Hotel (Shanghai Xinzhuang Metro Station)

The hotel is very close to the metro station and a small commercial area. My passport was being held by the US consulate for a visa, so I had to use color scans of my passport to check in. The check-in staff was very suspicious that I didn't have my passport with me, despite my partner explaining the situation to them in Chinese. I did not have this issue at other hotels, as staff is usually understanding that foreigners cannot have their passports on them 24/7 and because I carry color copies of all relevant passport pages they need to submit to the authorities as a scan anyway, but not here... They even called us to the room to keep asking more questions! This was a bit uncomfortable for me as I felt this was being done on purpose, not because of an actual need to ask all these questions. Beyond that, the room was cute, with the whole hotel being themed to the Mediterranean, this made me feel rather nostalgic! The room was clean and the amenities were plenty at the front desk. I would stay again, but I hope the staff is more understanding of different situations foreigners find themselves in in China...

房間挺乾淨的，裝修也很新，瓷磚地面好評，沒有味道； 工作人員態度很好，好熱情，見到都會打招呼問好哈哈哈； 早餐味道也不錯，選擇算比較多的了； 整體好評，可以有下次。

酒店服務工作人員笑臉相迎，很真誠。酒店房間內部清潔衞生，有送兩瓶礦泉水。與上海南站地鐵站距離近，方便來回。
