My stay at the Jinling Purple Mountain Hotel Shanghai was a mix of highs and lows. The convenient location near the metro made it easy to explore the city, and the staff were generally very helpful. However, my room felt a bit dated and could have been cleaner, which was a disappointment. Overall, I enjoyed my time there but felt there was room for improvement.

My stay at the Jinling Purple Mountain Hotel was a mixed experience. The location is fantastic, with easy access to the Metro and various dining options nearby. However, the air conditioning in my room was not well maintained, and I encountered issues when I needed to arrange a taxi. Overall, while I appreciated some aspects, I believe the hotel could improve on several fronts.
