Read the review - honest opinion for family of 4
I have mixed feelings about this place
Let’s start with the bad
1. This is not a hotel, despite booking this on hotels.com. This is an apartment in a residential building which means you check in yourself by getting a set of keys in a lock box. No reception, no daily cleaning, just an apartment. I would have booked through Airbnb if I wanted this style.
2. As everyone says, the elevator, the exterior and walking to the apartment is all old, smelly and coming back to the apartment each day was a drag. People left their garbage outside their doors
3. Bathroom sucks - bathroom and shower in one. We also ran out of hot water, but owner was quick to call someone over to fix it up. My wife had to take a cold shower and I copped an earful.
4. Sheets and towels felt dirty, so ended up buying own towels
Now the good
1. Price - you get what you pay for land the above reflects the price. Not bad for a family of 4
2. Location, location, location. Can’t fault this and it was awesome getting around Taipei.
3. Large room and great for family of 4.
4. Aircon was great and worked a treat
5. Washing machine - it was a life saver as this was the last leg of the trip, so washed out clothes every single day. Ample clothes hangers as well.
6. Full size fridge - that was awesome!!
Take everything with a grain of salt.
Overall I’d recommend this place for a quick stay - max 2 nights. We stayed 4 nights and it felt like a drag.
