"If you are looking for a place to live in Shanghai, there are many options available. You could look for a place to rent through a real estate agent or apartment-finding websites such as Danke Apartment, Sango, and 5i5j. You could also search for a shared accommodation through sites such as Shanghai Furnished Apartment, Spare Room, and Airbnb. Alternatively, you could look for serviced apartments with facilities like on site gym and swimming pool, which can be viewed online on the sites of SuperBrand Mall, Shanghai City Apartment, and Oakwood Asia. You can also consider staying in hostels or hotels for short-term stays," said a member in Shanghai, China, China.
