Question
Hi.
Would you please let me know about cheap accommodation in Shanghai?

Answer
Jo, there are an infinite number of youth hostels all around Shanghai. You have only to do a google search for "Shanghai Hostels" to pull them all up. They are all priced around 50RMB for a dorm room and equally the same as far as conditions. Alternatively, you can stay at the Chinese chain "Jin Jiang" hotel, which is about 230RMB for a private room. Have fun!
