We found a great rate online for $33 and thought it to be a great value for our money. The hotel had a nice lobby and friendly staff that mostly spoke English. It depends on where you want to stay, but after a few days I found the location to be a bit far from the sites I liked to... more

Shanghai was the smoggiest, most polluted city I have ever been in - and I have been to most cities in asia With this in mind, you want to stay in a hotel which is clean without a dusty feel in your room. We checked into this hotel after booking on wotif.com as a mystery deal (which said it was... more

Even if you desperately need a room in Shanghai, you should consider staying in a cardboard box under the bridge before you book a room in this dump. I just checked in several hours ago and have already seen TONS OF COCKROACHES running across the floor here. Another one is scurrying by as I type. This is no exaggeration, people.... more

I was happy with my stay here at Hengsheng. For only $50 room only per night, I had a very nice room. The bath/shower room was partly separated from my bedroom by a wall of curved glass which was pretty neat feature. The bed was so very comfortable, best I have ever slept in while on my travels. I am... more

Don't stay in this hotel! The location was very bed, in a doggy , smelly area of Shanghai. The room size and bathroom was OK. The worst thing is - there are cockroaches everywhere! I saw at least 5 of them in my room, plus found 2 in my suitcase when I returned to Melbourne! more

CTS booked me here. The location is not central. The walk to the Bund is circuitous because of bridge construction. I took cabs everywhere and it was annoying to add the 5-10 minutes to each trip. I have no idea how my prepaid room compared to other rooms. It was large with a big bed and a separate sitting room.... more

The hotel has a good location. A ten minute walk puts you on the Bund--once you get oriented and figure out the route. The immediate neighborhood has a local feel to it and is just enough removed to offer a different perspective. I found a small restaurant behind the hotel called King Dim Sum that was a real winner. The... more

Was there for 4 days in may 2008 That was my second time in this hotel First time I was in standard rooms which were SO SO Took deluxe room this time including internet . Was lot better than first time, room more spacious with couch and extra place for working desk Staff more or less welcoming Location is very... more

We booked 2 nights in a standard room at Hengsheng (via "rates to go"). We weren`t told that standard room means dump! As we came into the room we were completly disappointed. It was dark, raunchy, hackneyed and completly uncourtious! In front of the window were concrete pillars so that you couldnt see anything. We changed into another standard room... more
