Hi

I'm going to Shanghai with my 2 friends on 1 Oct. Just noticed tht it will be CH's public holidays. Will it be very crowded in Shanghai?

Also need to know the operating hrs for the public transports (bus, subway, etc) in order to plan our travel.

We also plan to stay in the Motel 168 at The Bund Outlet. Is it a good place to stay (from the terms of value of money, safety, convenience to travel to hot spots in Shanghai,etc)? Or perhaps you can provide us with other better option?
