Sehr gut gelegenes Hotel mit ein paar Schwächen
Pros:

Die Lage unmittelbar bei der MRT Ximen (Ausgang 2 oder 3) ist natürlich hervorragend. Das Personal ist natürlich auch sehr hilfsbereit und unterstützend und spricht sehr gutes Englisch - was in Taiwan nicht selbstverständlich ist.

Cons:

Nachdem wir 2 Zimmer reserviert hatten und diese nicht sehr billig waren, hätten wir uns ein höher gelegenes Stockwerk gewunschen (wir waren in Etage 3 - was in Taiwan eigentlich 2 ist - das Erdgeschoss zählt hier schon als Etage 1). Da fast alle Zimmer straßenseitig liegen, ist der Verkehrslärm, insbesondere das Piepen beim Blinken von den Bussen sehr laut hörbar und störend. Die Aussicht Richtung Ximen macht das meines Erachtens nicht wett.

Pros:

Spacious room. Loved how the toilet and bathroom was separate and the fact you can flush toilet paper down the toilet (a bit of an issue in other older accommodations).
The location is also excellent. Right next to the entrance to the ximending MRT and ximending shopping area. Great food near by too.

Cons:

We booked a deluxe twin room with sofa bed for 3 people. The sofa bed is small so cannot fit a anyone taller than 165 comfortably. The sofa was also super uncomfortable as it dips in. Its also position where there is a massive draft if the aircon is on. Overall, great room unless you are the one who is sleeping on the sofa bed.

Most comfortable, quiet stay close to Ximending attractions
Pros:

Incredible experience at this hotel, located really centrally: close to Ximending without being in the crowds. Also positioned right on top of a main train station. The staff were super friendly and allowed us to check in early after a very tiring long haul flight. Room was huge and comfortable, and exactly where you want to decompress after a long day of sightseeing

Excellent Location & Comfortable Stay.
Pros:

Location and Comfort - Convenient location just outside of Ximen Exit 3 (with escalators) or 2 (stairs). The hotel has everything we need - nice bodywash, shampoo and conditioner. Vacuum packing and other stuff available at level 2 reception area. Can check the laundry availability via the room TV and usage payable using credit card - NT70 for washer and NT10 per 10mins for dryer. There is water dispenser at every level. The food at the restaurant at level 1 is nice, but can be crowded during breakfast. Reception staff are nice and helpful too.

Cons:

The lift may be slow at times but not a biggie.

조식이 매우 맛있었습니다.
프렌치 토스트는 제가 먹었던 프렌치토스트 중에 최고였습니다.
