Penginapan Argyle di Shanghai

What surprisingly good value for money this hotel offers! It has a vintage feel, reflecting its old-school Japanese origins, and is equipped with a safe and a mini-fridge. The lighting is individually controllable, a nice change from rooms where it's all on or all off. Power outlets and air conditioning are well-maintained – a much better experience than some newer hotels that might still have chemical odors. There's no concierge, the shower stall is small, and the carpet is a bit worn. However, despite being extremely close to Hongqiao Airport T1, there was absolutely no airplane noise, and the sound insulation was excellent. I surprisingly had a fantastic night's sleep, making it perfect for dealing with jet lag or for a transit stay! On a side note, the shuttle service was clean and punctual.
