Convenient but too many problems
Convenient for getting around as close to Jing’an Temple & the metro station. The first apartment was a large room with a bookcase separating the sleeping & living areas. The toilet was poor & wouldn’t stop flushing initially. But, we arrived back c10:30pm on our 2nd night to find water dripping steadily from the ceiling. A staff member came quite quickly but didn’t really want to move us till the next day until we pointed out a 2nd new damp patch. She then moved us but it was a much smaller room than we’d paid for, though mercifully no leaks and a better toilet. I assume it would have cost us less but there was no offer of a refund. There weren’t any staff available when we checked out & we couldn’t hang around as we had a train to catch but the security man downstairs took our key card and gave us our deposit back. The walls in the 2nd apartment were heavily scuffed and both apartments needed redecorating. The ceiling of the 1st apartment showed very clear evidence of previous leaks which wasn’t very encouraging but was prescient for what happened. I’d like to recommend but I think they need to put more effort into maintenance to make it good value for the price paid.

Very good value
I stayed 12 days at Ladoll. The suite room was large and comfortable. The kitchen with clothes washer was a nice bonus. I loved the Jing’an neighbourhood! Less than five minutes walk to the subway. Not five star fancy, hard bed mattress and slow wifi aside, I will stay again on my next visit to Shanghai.

Nice location, half block to the Jing An Temple.
If I plan to stay in Shanghai for a longer period of time, this is definitely a place I would choose! It has a little kitchen, has a small laundry machine to use and the location is so close to the subway. This is more of an independent apartment type than the regular hotel.

Great little hidden treasure
For short term stays, it is a little bit expensive however for long term stays this is a great serviced apartment and a wonderful location. If it was not for the price, I would definitely be staying there more often. Not to far from the station, the location is connected in a very central location with easy access to most if the city. Many places to eat, drink and catch up with friends over coffee are available.

Great hotel, excellent location
My partner and I stayed here in July before we left China. We stayed for three nights with our dog. The room was very comfortable. Equipped with a small but full kitchen, and a washer/dryer unit, it was very ideal if you want to stay more than one night. The room was just enough for two people and a dog, and had a large TV. They also have an extensive DVD collection you can borrow from. Cleaning staff came each day to tidy up. The staff does not speak much English, but you're in Shanghai, so expect that. The location is about a five minute walk from Jing An temple, and also to the Jing An subway stop. There is excellent food around the corner, including a good Hong Kong style restaurant, a dessert place, and if you have a hankering for donuts, there's a Dunkin in front of the temple. Can't beat the price, location and comfort.

Cozy serviced residence/hotel. Allows dogs.
The Ladoll is a very comfortable hotel only a short distance walk away from Jing An Temple. It is surrounded by different restaurants, including Western-style, Hong Kong and Chinese food, as well as bakeries, bars and convenience stores. Perfect for visitors to Shanghai, if you plan to stay longer than a few nights. We stayed for three nights with our dog and the room was very comfortable. We had a one-bedroom with a small living room, kitchen and bathroom - all completely equipped and furnished. Plenty of storage space and a working safe. As other reviewers said, don't let the check-in area fool you: it's much nicer than that. They have a large collection of DVDs to watch, as there are basically no English TV channels (I found one but it wasn't consistenly English). On foot, it is very easy to find, if you exit out of Line 2 off of Jing An stop and keep the address handy.

Great value and location but basic
If you're looking for great value in a great location, then this place works. It's a serviced apartment so there's a mini kitchen, lounge and good sized bedroom. Location is great - just 2 mins from Jingan Temple and the metro stop, with great shopping nearby. It's quite Chinese in style and the quality of furnishings and room is more three star than five, but at this price it's hard to go wrong. Reception is in a room no the second floor and they check you in there so service is limited. No concierge or room service, so if you're new to China you may want more support. But if all you need is a good sized good value room you can't beat it.

Not too Bad
Had a reasonable stay at Ladoll for a week. Stayed in a Superior Suite (518) which was comfortable but smaller than indicated in the photos provided by the Hotel. The kitchen facilities were poor mainly comprising a battered pan and saucepan and jug, with no toaster, and a couple of knives spoons etc. The microwave and fridge were old but in good working order. Room cleanliness was OK although am not sure how frequently the bedding was changed. The entire suite was NOT in good general condition and obviously was due for renovation. There are no foreign TV stations provided although CCTV does have a reasonable English language News channel. Staff were helpful and efficiently arranged a taxi which arrived on time for trip to the airport. I paid about Au$130 pd for the suite which I thought to be a bit overpriced -although this particular area of Shanghai is expensive.

Good location, don't expect too much service.
The location is excellent! Close to everything in JingAn. Things are kind old in the partment, but it is still okay to stay. I am a regular visitor in Shanghai, so I don't need any service such as calling a cab or ask where to visit. The reception is kinda simple on the second floors. The house keeping is good, they keep everything clean everday.

Brilliant location, great service
Location is brilliant. The size of the apartment is great especially when staying for a week, even if your on business. The internet is a little slow which is the biggest frustration, but with numerous cafes across the road you can just go there and use the free wifi. It would be brilliant if there was at least a toaster in the kitchen and even better if there was an offer of a small starter pack to buy which included fresh milk and jam and butter etc just some basic essentials so you could actually make your own breakfast. While there is a convenience store downstairs, its a waste to buy larger sizes of milk,sugar, jam and butter when your only staying for a week. Put this into a 100CNY starter pack and life as a guest would be very simple. The staff are very very helpful with really good english. Highly recommend the apartment and I will definitely be back.

It has been nice during our stay there. Everything was fine; however, the room that we had given was so nearby in the corner of the street, a serie of huge noise coming into our room from the construction areas and/or people speaking in high voices from local business early in the morning.

I stayed in Ladoll during my business trip . The room was huge , a proper one bedroom apartment . It came with fully equipped kitchen and big bathroom . The room interior is slightly tired but still pretty decent . The place is quiet , no much noise from the street . The room has the best bed I had in Chinese hotels , I had very good sleep . WiFi was good and free . Room was cleaned every day . In summary I think it's a great place to stay and close to the metro station . I would definitely stay there again.

Great location, good service
The hotel is steps away from Jing An temple, line 2 and 7 subway. Location is great. The reception is very friendly, service very good and courteous. The back-facing units are extremely quiet, a wonderful feature for a hotel in the center of Shanghai. Few things I dislike: even though each room has its own modem, the wifi speed is slow, maxed out at 1.6mbps --- the mattress is a tad too hard for non-Chinese -- water pressure in shower is weak with hot water not running constantly -- the AC in my unit faces the bed, so the air blows almost directly to you.

Many good restaurants in the area as well as food stalls (mantou, steamed buns), KFC and McDonald's. I needed something more than a hotel for a one week stay in Shanghai and this was perfect.
