PPHUONG ANH PHAM LEThe hostel is good overall. The staff are extremely friendly, warm, and attentive. I had heavy luggage, and one of them helped me carry it upstairs (there’s no elevator) without me even having to ask the second time—really appreciated.❤️
The room is modern and clean. The cleaning lady sweeps the floor and takes out the trash every day. The location is excellent, very close to Subway Line 10, which covers most major tourist attractions, so there’s little need to change lines. Overall, it’s great value for budget travelers.
The only downside is that the bunk beds are quite squeaky. My first upper-bunk roommate moved a lot, and every movement felt like I was being shaken. Luckily, my second roommate was much gentler—she spoke softly and was very careful when getting into bed. That part really comes down to luck. You can still feel the bed move whenever the other person moves. If you’re a light sleeper, this might not be the best choice for you.

GGuest UserWhat an amazing experience! The front desk staff was so enthusiastic. When she saw me struggling with two suitcases, she greeted me while rushing over to open the door and even tried to help me with my luggage. It almost made this big guy embarrassed!
The facilities inside were exactly as pictured, even better. The absolute highlight was the huge 200-300 square meter drying area on the top floor – probably the largest online. Six washing machines and dryers lined up in a row were a huge convenience for long-term guests, and the drying area has a transparent roof, so it's good come rain or shine. The drying area is so massive that a portion of it has been converted into a relaxation zone, with starry string lights on the ceiling. Imagine a few beers and a barbecue up there on a summer night – simply fantastic!

MM419969****Extremely satisfied with my stay! The beds were spacious with ample storage lockers and hangers, which was really convenient. The mattress was quite comfortable too. The restrooms and showers were combined, but there were plenty of stalls so I never had to wait. There were separate toilet stalls and squat toilets in the shower area. The location is relatively convenient, close to the subway. The indoor non-smoking policy was a huge plus for me. The front desk staff were very friendly and patiently answered all my questions. I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Shanghai!

MM271849****Working in Pudong over the weekend, I was too tired to head home, so I looked for a good value-for-money place nearby. The front desk staff, especially Feifei, was excellent. The best part about the accommodation is its zero-distance proximity to the subway entrance. The lobby is a hidden gem – you can relax, eat takeout, and chat with friends, it's super cozy. The accommodation itself is incredibly quiet; everyone is very considerate. The rooms have private bathrooms, and there are even extra ones outside, so no waiting to freshen up. The luggage storage service was a thoughtful touch. This chain hostel definitely lives up to its reliable reputation!

PPato LuI stayed for one night at Dengba Inn and was pleasantly surprised by the overall experience. The location is excellent—just a few meters from the Zhenxin New Village subway station, which made it very easy to find and convenient for getting around Shanghai.
The hostel has a spacious common area that’s clean, well-lit, and perfect for relaxing or socializing with other travelers. It gave the place a cozy, welcoming vibe.
My room was also larger than expected for a 6-person dorm, with plenty of space to move around and store luggage. The bed was soft and comfortable, and although I had to make the bed myself (which was a bit unusual), the bedding was clean and neatly stored inside the locker along with ample space for my belongings. Once set up, it felt very homey and private.
Bathrooms and shared facilities were clean and well-maintained, and the whole place had a relaxed, backpacker-friendly atmosphere. Staff were polite and helpful, although I didn’t need much assistance during my short stay.
For budget-conscious travelers or those looking for an easy, comfortable place to stay near public transport, I’d highly recommend Dengba Inn. It offers great value for money, with clean rooms, a fantastic location, and a chill vibe that makes it easy to feel at home—even if just for a night.

AAchengdebairimengI was really surprised to find such a clean hostel in China, with absolutely no strange odors. I stayed in a quad room, and it wasn't even full for the two nights I was there, which made for a pretty good experience. The location is super convenient, close to Qufu Road subway station and Jing'an Joy City, making it easy to get around and find places to eat, drink, and have fun.

QQimiaonenglixinCleanliness: The room was very clean, including the bathroom, and the bed linen was neat.
Facilities: The only downside was that there was no power outlet by the bed, just a USB port, but I didn't bring a USB cable.
Location is pretty good too. I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit Shanghai.

GGuest UserThe location was in a lively part of Jing'an, although a little far from Jiangsu Road Station. I enjoyed the bicycle ride to the temple nearby, as it was a pretty neighborhood.
Unfortunately, that is pretty much all the good things I have to say about this place. The facilities, the entire place in general, was old and run-down. I was assigned a bed at the far end of the room where my cell service cut off. Not really the establishment's fault but something worth mentioning in my opinion as the wifi was often slow. A section of the wood of the opposite bunk bed was black and seemed to be rotting. The air smelled moldy. The bed was huge though, which was nice. The place did not seemed to be getting the love and care it needed. The bathroom facilities were tiny with two shower stalls and a toilet (plus another separate one some distance away). It wasn't dirty necessarily but it wasn't exactly clean either. I did not feel comfortable using it however. None of the staff I interacted with spoke English (my fault for not learning some basic Chinese at least). I was disappointed by the quality I was met with since this is apparently the flagship? It wasn't cheaper compared to other hostels either.
I felt bad but had to shorten my reservation and moved to a different place. But your standards might vary.

GGuest UserIt's also very close to various subway stations by bike, and the price is quite favorable. It's good if you don't have high requirements for accommodation. There are also shopping malls nearby, which is very convenient.

MM52199****The hostel is conveniently located near Exit 10 of Hanzhong Road Metro Station, close to the Shanghai Talent Market. The front desk staff were very welcoming and helpful. The dormitory beds have curtains for privacy, a mirror, and charging sockets. The shared bathrooms were clean. Overall, I had a great stay.
