Shanghai Travel Forum

I have checked out a few hostels in Shanghai. Can anyone suggest the pros and cons of their locations?

1.Le Tour Shanghai Youth Hostel, 136 Bailan Road, Putuo District.

2.Shanghai City Central International Hostel, No.300 Wuning Road, Putuo District

3.Mingtown Etour Youth Hostel, No.57 JiangYin Road, Huang Pu District

4.Summer hostel, No 35 Yongshou Rd, (Huangpu District)

5.Mingtown Hiker Youth Hostel, No.450 Middle Jiangxi Road

6.Backpacker Homestay Shanghai, No. 838, Jiang Ning Rd, Jing An District
I have read in this forum that this hostel is near to Jing An temple. Any
other pros or cons?

Don't like the location of any apart from Etour and Hiker.

Mingtown Etour Youth Hostel, No.57 JiangYin Road, Huang Pu District
<--- never stayed here. but one of my friend said it's better to stay in Mingtown Hiker than here


Mingtown Hiker Youth Hostel, No.450 Middle Jiangxi Road
<--based on my experience last year of June, I can really recommend this place. Only 5-10minute walk away from the nearest subway. near shopping areas, bus stations, even walking distance to The Bund. i took the 4-people dorm room for only 55RMB per night. clean room, clean shower room and restroom. free internet

Thanks, Ellyse and guo_mei_xin. Really appreciate your help.
