2 Cheap and Clean Hostels in Shanghai

I was in Shanghai for a final interview invitation by this company all expenses paid last week. They booked me for two nights with a standard room at Jin Jiang Inn Changhua Road, I was really devastated when I came in at 1am since my flight arrived at Pudong 1150pm, the two hotel staff denied my reservation for they can not understand english. With my travel experience with other non-english speaking country, I was really looking for synonyms to let them understand my intention. And the word was "PAID". They then asked for my passport and checked my name on their list. Nice hotel location, cheap, clean but needs to upgrade training with their staff to be globally competitive.
