Front desk reception people were very nice, but this old building has some problems. I was around the 20th floor and couldn't squash the cockroach that got away from me. Also, one of the toilets had a terrible back smell. Fortunately it was the living room toilet and I didn't have to smell it while in bed. However the window in the bedroom rattles and you can hear the wind, traffic noise and anything else through these thin, industrial-like sound proofless windows. A cup of coffee was 68RMB($11) on the ground floor cafe, so I found a Starbucks about 10 minutes walk away. Internet was working good, which is not always the case as I have experience at some of the 5 star hotels in Shanghai. There was a regular Sheraton 300 feet away in the next building, but the prices almost double and I could have stayed in any number of 5 star brand new hotels for that price. For what you get, compared to anywhere in the U.S. or Western Europe, this hotel is overpriced and or under well maintained and provisioned.
