How low do you want to go? The youth hostels that generally serve backpackers and students can be a good option, costing a minimum of 45 yuan (under $7) per night. Shanghai has eight clean, convenient youth hostels, most of them centrally located. A favorite pick is the Captain Youth Hostel, at 37 Fuzhou Rd. just off the Bund. The hostel's 6th floor bar has views of the river and all rooms have hot-water baths, 24-hour reception service, free Internet access, free movie, free tourism information and luggage storage.The piece lists a number of other ways to save your money in Shanghai. It's worth reading.

I love this photo, but I guess it's a computer render of upcoming projects? Or has it been that long since I went to Shanghai. Shanghai is one of my favorite destinations in the World!!! Love it! Funny how short the Jim Mao Tower looks!
