The location is great, right outside exit 3 of Ximen station. There are also bakeries and convenience stores near the hotel. There is a 24/7 drink station at the basement. The water pressure of the shower is strong.

We cannot control the temperature of the AC. It stays at 24-25 degrees celsium (which is warm for us), however you try to control it. We can easily hear the noise from other rooms or the hallway.

Hotel is centrally located at Ximen metro station. There are 2 exits namely exit 3 and 4 to reach the hotel. With its strategic location, plenty of tourist attractions are within reach by metro. Though the hotel has no restaurants (hence no breakfast), there are 2 eateries diagonally opposite or just beside the hotel each selling taiwanese food such as dumpling noodles and meatball soup respectively. Nearby, there are 2 bakeries (which we bought bread from for breakfast) and 1 shop specialising in authentic almond soya milk. I particularly love the free laundry service in the hotel. At B1 of the hotel, there are 3 washing machines and 3 dryers for DIY. Free washing powder, baskets for soiled clothes, and plastic bags for clean washed clothes are readily available for personal use. There is also an electric vertical steam iron. Have made use of this free service throughout the stay. Hence, no need to do laundry back home and more free time to unwind after trip. My family loves the spacious common area (at B1 of the hotel) aka dry pantry for dining-in too. There are 2 microwave ovens for heating up packed food. Free beverages such as americano and water are provided via coffee bars and water dispenser. Hotel guests are welcome to take the free taiwanese snacks at the pantry. The friendly staff top up coffee beans regularly and they also maintain the area very well. There are charging ports too. While waiting for your laundry, you can take your meals, charge your phone or simply chill and relax. Between 10pm-12mn daily, they will leave instant noodle bowls at the reception counter for you to take. Near the reception, there are coffee bars, water dispenser and washrooms.

The family room is just right for my family of 3. It is clean and well-maintained. However, hangers (8 pcs in total) and hanger hooks may not be sufficient for travellers who did not bring their own foldable hangers and portable hooks. Luckily, we were prepared for this shortfall 😉

I like the service the hotel provide to us, have washing machine and cup noodle after 10pm. In the room, also have snack to us every day. I will recommend to friend and family if they need to travel and looking for hotel and i will stay in this hotel when i travel taipei next time.

Sound insulation is not good.

I've stayed in a lot of hotels over the years but this has to be by far, the most well equipped hotel. They don't have all the fancy facilities, but what it does have is everything else you need. We stayed there as a family of 4 so we needed 2 room. The rooms aren't tiny but they give you just enough space. One room had a big bath/shower but the other did not. It's all the small touches for me- the house keeping adding the cable ties to your cables, the free cup of noodles they offer at after 10pm if you feeling a bit peakish, the free laundry service (wash and dryer) and the use of the steam iron was incredibly appreciated after weeks of travelling, the communal kitchen with some free light drinks and snacks and a dining area for you to eat your meals. The location was perfect, a minute walk into the heart of Taipei. The TV even had great movies on show! Such great value for money and ticks all the boxes.

We had 2 rooms and 1 of them didn't have any windows. Felt like a bit of a jail cell. However we did book very last minute so was grateful to have any rooms available. Also the only lift is quite small and closes the door a little too quick. But don't let this prevent you from staying- it's a great hotel.

We felt very welcome in this hotel with the warmth of the front desk staff. They are very approachable and helpful. Great Job!

Maybe need to sound proof the corridor.

the location is near enough to Ximending but with a bit of distance of 'peace'. the room was clean and sheets and amenities nicely provided. i also like the additional touch of a handwritten note on some of the night markets recommendations by the hotel. They also provide preorder delivery for basic souvenirs like pineapple pastry and tai yang bing. On the day of checkout i noticed there's also the preorder of the famous Fu Hang soymilk too! Surely to try when i next check in with them.

the soundproofing of the rooms were really bad, understand that this is an old building and the mgt did heads up for us to bring along ear plugs. as a light sleeper if not for the ear plugs i would have suffered at night.

The hotel's just about 3-5 minutes walk from both Exit 3 and 4 of Ximending station. There's a common area in the basement with laundry and dryers which we can use for free, hot drinks machine etc. There's also complimentary instant noodles for supper which you can get at the reception counter. Water dispensers are available at the lobby and also at the basement.

One, the coldness of my room as the air conditioning system did not have a heating function and the winter cold gets in via the bathroom's window despite it being shut. I switched off the aircon system to bring the temperature of the room up for sleeping at night. Secondly, the pillows are not fantastic either, but the bed was clean and decent.

The location was great. Staff were very helpful.

The receptionists are all well trained and friendly. Hotel location is superb, near to the Ximen Metro exit. There is no worried about carrying luggage as you can easily access the escalator at Metro exit. Personally felt thankful that we picked this hotel as our stay for 3 days as we met Typhoon Kong Rey, the hotel provides FOC laundry services and free cup noodles each night which is a value added point especially during Typhoon time. Rooms are comfortable and clean, housekeeping are in place.

Sometimes you may need to be patient waiting for lift, only one lift available. Nothing else to complain about.

Staff are fantastic. They give you the feeling of being very welcome. You get free coffee, free drinks and free snacks every day. Coffee machine works 24/7. In the basement, there is a lobby where you can hang out, cook, and do your laundry including ironing. here is a convenience store right next to the hotel with plenty meal kits. If you walk about 5 minutes, there is a store where you can get fresh pressed juice very cheap. And chains like Subway or Starbucks. Also, you are right next to XIMEN station and the city - fantastic shopping district, similar to Meyong Dong in Seoul. With the Metro, you can get anywhere fast and its only 25 minutes from the airport. Bathroom is huge, bed is comfy... would def. book again!
