I went to Taipei for a quick weekend trip with my friends last weekend. We booked one double room/ each person since the room rates are so low (like 45 usd/ night)

The room is quite clean , everything is fine *** despite the floor *** and the hotel is still relatively new. But remember to wear your slippers since the floor seems not frequently cleaned (or maybe it was the color, pattern and texture of the floor)

As I hanged out with friends till super late, we all didn't manage to go out at regular housekeeping hour but the housekeeping ladies still tidied the room even we went out nearly by the evening. The housekeeping team was terrific there

Considering the price point and the quality of my stay, I would definitely book it again unless I plan to go for luxury stay.

I can’t understand the poor reviews, as I was very happy with this hotel!

The rooms are small, but we had two single beds and still felt there was sufficient space.

The bathroom is fine, with a very good shower. Good quality soap, shampoo etc provided.

Rooms are clean and nicely decorated. We did not have any problems with temperatures or air conditioning.

Only reason I did not give five stars is the breakfast was a bit disappointing. Good amount of choice, but not food I enjoyed, except for the dumplings which were delicious.

The walls are paper thin. I stayed here for 4 nights, you can very easily hear people talking several rooms across the hallway. The rooms are always hot. I think the hot water system is placed inside the building rather than outside. This might make it nice in winter but in any other season it makes it quite uncomfortable, especially in Taiwan's humid climate. The air conditioner only has two settings, on and off. This makes the room either freezing cold or boiling hot.

The hotel does have self-serve laundry, but it takes a really long time. Washing takes 60 minutes whereas drying will take 2-3 hours, or possibly more if you have a larger load. There is only 1 washer and dryer and it's always in demand, especially considering how long it takes to wash and dry.

The location is very average. It's a 10 minute walk to the nearest subway station.

I'm not sure why this hotel is rated highly online. I wouldn't stay here again.
