Guisu Homestay (Nanjing West Road) Reviews

The room is incredible amazing, super clean. Located in the great location, close to Metro station, Xintiandi and many shopping malls nearby. The homestay owner are really nice, you can contact them via wechat app. Highly recommended to stay in this place, I will definitely book this hostel again and again for my next trip to Shanghai ❤️

The place is super convenient, with many eateries, shopping mall around. It's also walking distance to bustop & MRT station. The customer service responds fast and politely. The only bad thing here is that the sounds surrounding can be heard clearly and this place is old estate, with insects outside the building. The bed is hard, not comfortable. Overall the experience was good, with this price.

We had a wonderful experience with the Guisu property for an 8-day stay. For a group of 5, this was much more convenient and cost-effective than having to book separate hotel rooms. I booked this room for my family, who was visiting China for the first time. Communicating with the host was very easy, and they responded very fast to any inquiry, sending over items, such as house slippers, within minutes upon request. Our communication was all in Chinese, so it may be helpful to have someone familiar with the language. What my family liked most about Guisu was that they felt like they were immersed in the city, experiencing the real life of a Chinese neighborhood, which a hotel may not be able to provide. The property was next to an elementary school, and while we were woken up each day by the sound of the children, it was nevertheless a pleasant, authentic, experience. The amenities and facilities all worked well, and the kitchen is stocked with dishes and utensils. Even if you are not cooking yourself, it is convenient to have all of this on hand. I would certainly recommend Guisu Homestay to other friends visiting Shanghai. The location near West Nanjing Road made it easy to walk everywhere, such as to People's Square or nearby parks. It is also close enough to the metro station, for a quick ride to other popular areas or train stations.

The location here is very good, less than 10 mins walk to West Nanjing Road metro. Over there for lots of shops and eateries too. The only let down is the property. The master room bathroom drainage is very bad. When you shower in that room, the water will come out from the outside sink hole (took a photo to show the bathroom) which then means the floor becomes very very wet. Also the inside sink hole doesn't flow well and very slow. Secondly, the property smells like drainage/sewage especially when you come back after a whole day outside. When you turn on the aircon it ok, but if you don't you can smell it. Otherwise, location is good, service was very smooth and easy for check in, and easy to communicate with the management, just a let down in the property.

Nice place,Nice location,Host very kind,I will be back to stay here

Friendly management and housekeeper. It is convenient to the bus stop.

Rooms are big! Good for big families to stay together. Got a cosy "fireplace" as well. Overall quite happy and location is convenient!

The owner of the place was quick to respond over we chat for all the issues we had whilst staying there. As it is not a hotel, foreign passport holders will need to fill out an online form with the shanghai authorities. The place is as described in the pictures and is clean and comfortable. It is located on the second floor so we needed to carry our suitcases up a flight of stairs. Located near the exit of a residential area, The locals sell vegetables outside in the mornings. We like that there are a number of cute little shops near this place. It is not near Nanjing pedestrian road like I originally thought. It is about 2 metro stops away from there in the Huangpu district.

Good location nearby shopping area, however, property is located at a less than favourable backlane area. Room is not 55sqm as claimed and is approx. 25 sqm, with an outdoor patio of approx 20sqm. Toilet is very small.

Great view ✨

Prime location in Pu Xi.. easy access to metro and a lot of places, mall , Starbucks rostery, Nanjing road are nearby. Generally the stay is quite good, comfy and feel like home … you will have all needed amenities, can even cook, there is a washing machine and microwave. Highly recommended

The location is very central. It’s connected to many important sites: Starbucks reserve, Shanghai natural history museum and two metro lines. It was convenient point to travel from to explore Shanghai. There are also plenty of restaurants and shop. The rooms are beautiful and clean. It had many utensils for cooking and comfort. It also had a projector to watch movies at the end if the day. The information from the management is very clear and they were available to help us with all their needs. They sent extra water, tissues and helped us book a taxi.

The host accommodate us very well. Very helpful throughout the trip. The room is very nice and clean, plenty of space for a family. The location is super convenient! Will definitely come back!
