This gives you more space and you will also have access to your own private bathroom.
Included also is a sizeable double bed included which can fit two people. If another person stays with you there is no extra charge also

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Will I be able to wash my clothes?
Yes you will. There will be a washing machine provided.
Can I see some photos?
Yes, we have a gallery dedicated to our Shanghai shared apartments you can take a look at.
How do I find LTL Shanghai on my first day?
Don’t worry, despite the size of Shanghai we make this as convenient as possible.
Your landlady will be able to help you with directions when you check in if you need.
You can always ask us before you start your Mandarin course in China.
Make sure you have your VPN installed before coming to China as you will not be able to access Google Maps otherwise.
Astrill and Express VPN are two of the more reliable VPN’s we like to use. You will either travel alone or with other students who are also living in your complex.
Where are the Shanghai shared apartments?
There are various locations for our shared apartments.
Nevertheless, we make sure the travel distance isn’t anything longer than 40 minutes although in most cases it is shorter than 30 minutes.
The location of our Shanghai school is very convenient, in the heart of the old French Concession.
Are there supermarkets and restaurants nearby?
Yes we make sure your location is ideal for accessing essentials such as supermarkets and restaurants.
The school is purposely located so you are never far from the essentials.
When should I arrive?
The best time to arrive, for your convenience as much as ours, is daytime on Sunday.
This can equate to anytime between 10am and 6pm. Remember from the airport it will also take some time to arrive at your apartment.
With school the next day you don’t want to be arriving late with little sleep.
This also makes it easier for our landlady to organize your pick up from the airport.
