Moli B&B-Right on Nanjing East Road the Bund 2-Bedrooms with Elevator Apart ment Near the subway

Hotel Description

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Shanghai, the Moli B&B offers a cozy and convenient 3-star accommodation experience that perfectly balances comfort with accessibility. Located at Room 402, No. 12, Lane 188, Zhejiang Middle Road in the prestigious Huangpu District, this apartment-style B&B boasts an enviable position right on Nanjing East Road, one of Shanghai’s most famous shopping streets, and near the iconic Bund waterfront promenade. With a solid guest rating of 7.3, Moli B&B has established itself as a reliable choice for travelers seeking an authentic Shanghai experience without sacrificing modern conveniences. The property’s most notable feature is perhaps its strategic location, providing guests with easy access to Shanghai’s primary attractions while offering the comfort of a private apartment complete with elevator access—a welcome amenity after a day of exploring the city’s dynamic streets.

The two-bedroom apartment configuration of Moli B&B makes it an ideal choice for families, small groups, or travelers desiring more space than a traditional hotel room provides. The proximity to Shanghai’s efficient subway system is a significant advantage, allowing guests to effortlessly navigate this sprawling metropolis while avoiding the notorious traffic congestion. From this central Huangpu District location, visitors can easily reach Shanghai’s most celebrated landmarks—stroll along the historic Bund to admire the contrasting architecture of colonial-era buildings on one side and futuristic Pudong skyscrapers across the river; experience the shopping paradise of Nanjing East Road with its blend of traditional Chinese stores and international brands; or explore nearby Yu Garden and its traditional pavilions and ponds for a glimpse into Shanghai’s cultural heritage. The surrounding neighborhood offers an authentic glimpse into daily Shanghai life, with local markets, traditional lane houses, and countless restaurants serving everything from street food to fine Shanghainese cuisine.

What distinguishes Moli B&B from typical hotel accommodations is its unique blend of homely comfort and urban convenience. Unlike standardized hotel rooms, this apartment offers guests the freedom to experience Shanghai more like a local resident than a tourist. The elevator access—a feature specifically highlighted in the property’s name—is particularly valuable in this vertical city, especially after long days of sightseeing. While maintaining the characteristic charm of a B&B, the property provides modern necessities expected of its 3-star rating. The Huangpu District location places guests in Shanghai’s historical center, an area known for its rich cultural significance and architectural diversity. Whether visitors are in Shanghai for business or leisure, Moli B&B serves as a comfortable and well-positioned base from which to experience the fascinating blend of traditions and innovations that define contemporary Shanghai. For travelers seeking an accommodation option that combines the authenticity of a local residence with the convenience of a central location and essential amenities, Moli B&B represents a pragmatic and appealing choice in one of Asia’s most dynamic cities.

  This charming Airbnb couldn't be better located – right near Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, Shanghai's most vibrant heart! Super convenient with a metro station just minutes away and the iconic Bund within easy walking distance .
  The room itself impressed us with its trendy.The bed was super comfortable with fresh, crisp linens that smelled wonderful.

• Sok from Singapore – 14 January 2025 (5/10)

  Supplies like toilet rolls, tissue paper, mineral water was sufficient. Hair dryer was new and easy to use. Aircon is good as you can turn to aircon or heater temperature. Bed was comfortable. There is sufficient adaptor point in bedroom that enable us to charge our phones or powerbank.
  
  What could be improved: Toilet was in bad condition. No proper shower screen. Water flow out after shower making the whole toilet floor very wet due to no drainage. Heater did not work properly as hot water come and go. This also applies the same as water tap at basin which most of time cannot get hot water even when you turn to hot water. There is a hole on toilet door that is visible from outside. Toilet door lock was quite bad. Kitchen was not so clean and there is bad smell from refrigerator. Room doors are very run down like the wood coming out from door. There is no free TV channel. Should have provide more bath towels as we have been using one towel for the 6 nights stay. Price is too expensive due to the toilet condition and kitchen. It could have been cheaper.

• Sc from United States – 11 February 2025 (3/10)

  -Amazing location, central and easy to access everything we wanted to see in Shanghai.
  -Some lovely little extras, like the fire place, extension cords for devices, cushions, etc.
  
  What could be improved: -The soundproofing on the windows is BAD and we got a lot of ambient noise from the street. If you're a light sleeper and/or got to bed early, you might be bothered by this.
  -You can smell the neighbor's cooking even when all the windows are closed.
  – The listing mentions a microwave and fridge, but there weren't either. The host didn't mention they were missing until we asked where they were.
  – The host kept asking us to pay prior to check-in, even though booking.com confirmed (both with us, and with the host directly) that pre-payment wasn't required.
  – The bathroom is really small and the floor got quite wet after showers.
  -There are hanging decorative lights that we banged our head on numerous times. It'd be better to replace these with normal ceiling lights.
  -The front door lock is a buggy mess. it constantly gave us "password incorrect" errors (literally every single time we used it) and was just a constant nuisance to deal with.

• Peerayot from Thailand – 3 April 2025 (9/10)

  ทำเลดีมาก ใกล้ที่เที่ยว ร้านอาหาร รถไฟใต้ดิน เจ้าของเอาใจใส่ดีมาก แก้ไขทุกอย่างตามที่ร้องขอ เตียงที่นอนดีเยี่ยม ได้พักผ่อนเต็มที่หลังจากเดินเที่ยวทั้งวัน
  
  What could be improved: ห้องน้ำเปียกเนื่องจากน้ำจากบริเวณอาบน้ำ แก้ไขไม่ยาก โดยวางผ้าซับน้ำไว้1ผืน จบปัญหา มีกลิ่นบ้าง แต่เมื่อเจ้าของห้องดำเนินการแก้ไขตามที่ร้องขอแล้ว ปัญหาก็หมดไป
