    The water was turned off one afternoon, with no warning given by the management.The breakfast was not as the website depicted.

    The staff was extremely helpful, the room was clean, housekeeping left snacks and water daily, the hotel location was very close to many eateries, breakfast wasn't as expected but they were tasty set meals provided by a local eatery. Because I like to walk, I liked the 40 minute walk from the train station (TRA) to hotel. I would definitely stay here again.

    The last two days, buffet breakfast was replaced by rice congee and a lunch box.

    Perfect sound proofing, very nice staff, good location close to attractions and public busses. Nice breakfast most of the time.

    The shower was hit or miss for temperature and the breakfast buffet was often a bit cold and had a limited selection.

    Clean, comfortable rooms, friendly staff, nice gift baskets in the room on arrival. The hotel has a great location.

    Be aware that the parking spaces mentioned in the listing are public and not directly at the hotel. So you might not get one , if it is busy

    The water pipe in the room was running at night. I can hear it non-stop at night.

    It has pretty modern check in system. I find it very interesting and the stuff are very friendly and helpful. Like the little touch on the wall with old Taiwanese window metal frame.

    The breakfast selection was poor…there were no juices of any sort (the coffee/hot tea machine was out of order, as well), not many breakfast items in general, most of the food was cold and the staff was often not even in the breakfast room. In short, the most disappointing breakfast in Taiwan that we‘ve had and the only thing about the hotel I would not recommend.

    The room was spacious and tidy. Check-in was also super easy. Overall, you do not pay a lot of money for the accomodation, in comparison to other hotels in Taipeh. Nice feature: the free snack box (instant ramen, chips, etc.).

    The air-conditioning seemed to be centrally managed. We were not sure when the temperature would go to default or why the temperature could not be adjusted downward. We had to ring the receptionist, who then changed it for us.

    The hotel is within walking distance to many downtown attractions and not far from the main train station, moped rentals or buses. We like the breakfast a lot as the hotel offers a good variety of choices. It is hard to out-compete what is available in a city famous for food, but we felt that the hotel's breakfast was decent. The staff was very friendly and helpful, keeping our baggage for us until the night after check-out. This was handy when we bought quite some stuff to take back. Also, the hotel made best use of the available space, so the cafe on the ground floor feels open, but at the same time retaining a bit of privacy. The bathroom of our room is not next to the room door, instead in a corner in such a way that it felt hidden. There was a good balance between hotel's style and comfort, so the room decor did not veer into tackiness.
