Our hotel in Shanghai is the East Asia Hotel. A two star hotel with a great location on the main street of Shanghai, East Nanjing Road. A very very busy pedestrian only street filled with stores and restaurants. The hotel has no street level space. You enter via a second-rate men's clothing store and go up a little elevator to the second floor hotel lobby. You would never notice this hotel if you did not know where it was. Once inside though it is quite nice.
The front entrance at street level.
You have to push your way through these plastic things which are designed to keep out the cold. Then you are in a clothing store with no hotel in sight. Interesting.
Karen hold open the cold barrier.
