    Room was SMALL. Clean and comfortable but SMALL. Bathroom was also tiny. If you're just there to sleep, it does the trick.

    Hotel was clean and comfortable enough. My room was on the 5th floor, so it was pretty quiet. Loved the fact that it was a five minute walk to the MTR (BL Bannan Line, Fuxhong stop). Using the MTR, you can get to most of the attractions. Do yourself a favor and get an EasyCard! Plenty of stores and places to eat nearby.

    An old hostel doesn’t mean it couldn’t have some renovations, or maybe just a change of moldy curtains.

    perfect location, nice staff.

    No coffee and again the room is very small. The queen bed takes up maybe 70% of the room space.

    Very convenient to subway and buses, as well as all sorts of shops and restaurants including a nearby night market. Very clean room, just very small. Internet, hot shower, and beds are all very good.

    excellent little hotel close to everything except for a decent wifi connection

    The worst part of this hotel was the wifi. It was very slow sometimes almost to the point of dropping out altogether. Not great if you want to make a video call or watch a show.

    I stayed here for about 10 days while looking for an apartment in Taipei. The location is great - close to the Bannan blue line MRT, small park just around the corner, plenty of restaurants, night market not too far away... Everything you need is pretty much right there. The front desk staff were helpful and courteous. The room was sized perfectly for me - just big enough for a bed and a couple of bags. Small room also means the air conditioning works quickly when you turn it on, which is just what you need in Taipei in summer. Great place.

    Clean, good location but just need to bring your own soap if you are staying here.

    Although we understand the non provide of toothbrush, tooth paste, hand soap but this is the only hotel that does not provide shower soap and shampoo where the rest hotels provide fixed (locked) shampoo/body soap within hotel. This is quite inconvenience for travellers.

    Good location with lots of variety of food to choose. Access quite good as there is accessibility even with large luggage. Friendly staff that give suggestions to stay.

    The room was cramped and smelled of damp. Not just a little. It reeked. The AC was very loud and clunky, and didn't help much with the smell. I found a tag from someone else's shopping INSIDE my bed. No toiletries - not even hand soap! I asked at the front desk, and though signage says you can ask, I was told they didn't provide anything.

    The location was good. The hallway decorations were nice. It wasn't too loud. The bed was comfortable. The room was functional.

    The beds weren't very comfortable. I had a room that didn't have a window, it didn't say in my booking about that beforehand. The walls between rooms are quite thin and so you can hear people talking in other rooms and snoring.

    I liked the location, it was quite clean. The staff were really friendly and professional.

    It was just a little too small. You could barely move in the space.

    I liked that although the space was very small, they managed to fit in a bathroom and bedroom together.

    Tinest room I ever stayed

    Very, very tiny rooms, 2m x 2m. After putting the suite case and hand luggage, there was no space to even stand up alone, take a pace, or 2. No soap to wash hand. Just 2 small sachets one was body Lotion, and the other was shampoo. Won't let you 10 min earlier checkin. No late check-in and charges were too high per hour. Charging for everything. From spare pillow to the towel T$150 each. Not worth the money they are charging.

    Nothing much was likeable

    The walls are quite thin. Therefore noises from neighboring rooms are were not subtle

    It was at a very convienient location. The staffs are very friendly and they have housekeeping services. The rooms are equipt with essentials like towels and toiletries.
