    The door was not noise proof so I could hear everything in the hall. Everything else was perfect, and I would stay here again!

    Great Location! Lots to eat nearby and 5-10min walk from the train. The staff is very friendly. And the room is very clean and nice.

    - The elevator too small. Can accommodate only 1 person with 2 luggages - The room I got was also too small even for 1 person. - They charged me of 500 NTD for "breaking" a stool when it was already scratched when I get in there. The manager said I should've informed them when I saw it. Like how would I know they consider a scratch as "broken"?

    Clean and smells good. Walking distance from Ximen station and night market.

    Toilet seat with pee stain underneath. But other areas inside the room are clean. Towels are clean too. Staff service was average, they are polite just that nothing specifically stands out. All in all I'm very satisfied with the stay, wouldn't say there's anything I really didn't like.

    The stay is within 10mins walk from Ximen Mrt Station, many food places nearby. Quiet environment. Strong shower pressure and aircon. Complimentary coffee machine in the lobby.

    The steps from the outside/entrance is quite high for my Mom to climb, and the alternative ramp is also steep for my Mom’s knee.

    Staff are very nice, helpful and approachable. The location is nice, quiet and safe but walking distance to Ximendeng. The room is very comfy.

    Rooms are extremely small, even by Taiwanese standards. I either had my suitcase open or I could walk around the room, not both at once.

    Location is convenient if you want to explore Ximen. Check-in was smooth.

    There's no stairs to go up to the room, you have to use a small lift, which is quite cramped with suitcases. Some of the plug sockets have USB ports, but these did not work in our room.

    The location is perfect, down one of the many alleys off of Kangding Road. It being in Taipei, there are plenty of useful services nearby: bus stops, underground only 10 minutes away, convenience stores, laundrettes, and cafes. There's even a very beautiful cafe on the same alley decorated with flowers.

    There are no dental kits and disposable slippers provided. The bed and room may be small for taller people. The elevator only fits 3 people. Also, the walls are thin so you can hear the noise on the street.

    Great location and the room was clean and comfortable. I also appreciate the interior design. They provide hand wash, body wash, conditioner, towels, tea and coffee in the room. The staff are accommodating. There's free water in the lobby and sometimes free snacks as well.

    I'm claustrophobic and the elevator is tiny! Pillow was too thick. No place to put my luggage except on the floor. Room was clean but Shower could use a deep detail scrub.

    Location, staff were so helpful. A woman did laundry right next door.

    The lift can be narrow and fire exit is very difficult to walk.

    It’s sparkling clean, quiet and located very close to Ximending Night Market. Single room is good for a stay for 1-2 nights. I love the toiletries product. They smell so good. Dyson hairdryer tops amenities list!

    It wasn’t that I disliked it but it took getting used to… was the bathroom. I am not used to staying at places where there is no shower curtain but that’s just a personal mindset but it makes sense. So if you aren’t used to it some bathrooms may be like that? Literally no complaints though.

    The location was outstanding due to close proximity to so many good food locations and ximen station. The staff were incredibly friendly and always had a smile when I arrived. The AC was very good and the bed was so comfortable. I enjoyed the layout of the room quite a bit, small, but very comfortable.
