The hotel boasts very comfy and clean rooms with a stunning bathroom and gadgets for everything, embodying luxury. However, the lingering smell of cigarettes detracts from the experience. The service is very impressive, except for occasional communication issues due to language barriers. The location, while good for airport access, is marred by being in an underdeveloped area. The dining options are decent but slightly overpriced. The facilities are accommodating, though not perfect.

I was pleasantly surprised by the amazing rooms at this hotel, especially considering the affordable price we paid. The executive room we stayed in was truly splendid, spacious, and felt relatively new. However, the location was a bit run down and not ideal for exploring the area. The staff provided excellent service and were incredibly helpful. The dining experience was just about OK, offering a good variety suitable for different nationalities. The facilities were great, offering everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

The hotel has clean and nicely designed rooms with a good attention to details, providing a pleasant stay. The service is friendly and helpful, although there are some limitations in English communication. The location is ideal for airport stopovers but may not be suitable as a base for exploring the city center. The dining experience offers a large selection, but it's recommended to arrive early for a better choice. Overall, the facilities are well-maintained and enjoyable.

The hotel offers immense rooms with king-size comfortable beds and an elaborate bathroom, providing a view of a pool down below. The service was helpful but with poor communication skills. The location is excellent for walking to the city central and opposite newly built shopping malls. The dining experience caters more to Chinese food preferences. Despite these positives, the place is in an area that seems less safe and modern.

The hotel rooms were the epitome of comfort and beautifully decorated. They felt like the perfect studio to relax, work, and enjoy, although it took some time to figure out all the buttons and switches for various features. The service was of uneven quality but the staff went out of their way to address any questions or needs. The location was excellent for traveling to and from the airport, being quite near to Pu Dong airport and offering convenience. The dining experience was mediocre, not meeting the expectations for a 5-star hotel in Shanghai. The facilities were well-appointed and contributed to the overall comfort of the stay.

My stay at the hotel was incredible. The rooms had everything a traveler could ask for, were clean, spacious, and well-appointed, with modern features like automatic curtains and fogging glass in the bathroom. The pool and gym were out of this world, and the glass-walled ensuite with privacy blinds added a touch of luxury to the experience. The service was friendly overall, but there were some issues with adaptors and credit card acceptance. The location was excellent, walking distance to the city central and opposite newly built shopping malls, making it feel like home. The dining options were fantastic, with top-quality food available early in the morning. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable.
