I had a decent stay at this hotel located right in the bustling Ximending area. The rooms were clean and tidy, and ideal for a good night's sleep, but they could be a bit noisy due to the lively surroundings. The staff was genuinely friendly and helpful, which made my experience much better. The location is unbeatable for shopping and dining, but the dining options at the hotel were somewhat limited. Overall, it's a good value for money given the great location and quality of service.

I had a decent stay at the hotel, which was conveniently located near the bustling Ximending area. The rooms were clean and more spacious than I anticipated, but the decor was a bit dated and the glass partition in the bathroom could be a little awkward for some. The service was friendly and accommodating, although the breakfast could have offered more variety. Overall, it provided good value for money, especially considering its prime location.

I had a really nice stay at this hotel, which is perfectly situated in the bustling Ximending area of Taipei. The rooms were a tad smaller than I expected but still quite acceptable for our needs. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, and I appreciated their willingness to assist with questions about exploring Taiwan. However, the breakfast options were pretty basic and could definitely use some improvement. Overall, it's a good value for money, especially given the great location.

I recently stayed at this hotel and found it to have a great location right in the heart of Ximending, making it easy to explore the shopping area. The staff was really friendly and helpful, which made my experience enjoyable. However, the rooms had some downsides, like not having a window and occasionally smelling damp. Overall, it's a decent place for the price, but there’s room for improvement in the room quality.
