“Perfect hotel option for Taipei”
+Nice breakfast selection of local food which changed a bit everyday, very welcoming and forthcoming staff, nice room, perfect location in Ximen - close to MRT and also to Main Station for HSR, MRT to airport etc.

“Great location and room.”
+The owner is a joy. Super helpful. Friendly. Warm. The location could not be better. Yes, as others have said, I too was caught out by the stairs up to the property. But that’s cause I didn’t read the directions properly. You can avoid all the stairs altogether by going around the property. There’s still an incline mind but that’s the area in general. I really valued the microwave and washing machine and fridge. The breakfast is not particularly grand but there’s cereals, juice, milks, hot drinks, toast / bread and boiled eggs along with butters, jam and peanut butter. I’d happily stay here again. It’s bang central for exploring, the metro and all the shops, eateries etc but it’s quiet of an evening. Bed was firm. As I like it. And pillows good quality.
−Nothing that’s worthy of a comment. A longer stay would have been good!

“Great stay in Taipei !!”
+We had a great stay here. The location was quite central in New Taipei and was right next to a shopping district and lots of great food markets and restaurants around. Also was only a 5 minute walk to Ximen station. The staff were really friendly and super accomodating, helping us whenever we had questions. The room was clean, had a safe to put personal items in and had daily housekeeping.

“Amazing location, great vibes”
+We stayed here at the start and end of our travels around taiwan and it was amazing to come back to. We got a free room upgrade to a larger room (it even had a hallway!) The room was luxurious and had a good space for doing final pack and review of all the shopping Toiletries smell lovely Amazing location in the heart of xiemin
−The fire alarm went off at 4am and the fire stairs were semi blocked at several levels which was unsafe There is only one lift so it can be a long wait The shower cubicle was quite narrow so bigger people might struggle There were lots of light switches in the room so it would be good if they could be labelled You could hear quite a bit of noise from the hallways, eg doors and talking

−The hotel’s location is good and convenient, which was a plus point during our stay. However, the safety standards definitely need improvement. In the middle of the night, the fire alarm suddenly went off, and everyone rushed downstairs in a panic. What was even more concerning was that the staircases were partially blocked by boxes and other stored items, making it difficult for guests to evacuate safely. This is a serious safety concern. If there had been an actual fire, how were guests supposed to evacuate quickly and safely? Emergency exits and staircases should always be kept clear, regardless of the circumstances. I hope the management takes this feedback seriously and addresses the issue immediately. A good location is important, but guests’ safety should always come first.

+The hotel was exquisite for the price. Location was right in the middle of all the night life. The room was clean and well maintained. Staff made check in a smooth and friendly experience. The buffet breakfast was well worth it. Highly recommend this hotel.

“Incredible location and vintage aesthetic”
+We stayed at the hotel at the start and end of our trip to taiwan. - unbeatable location a few mins walk from xiemin station - great breakfast buffet (small - medium size) - cool decor - helpful staff - they stored a bag for us for 4 days between our stays - nice toiletries - japanese toilet - comfy bed - nice common area Our shower also has a full length window to the street which was kinda wacky
−Only one lift and were asked not to use the stairs when we tried to use them While furniture is cool, some gets in the way, especially as it is a small room Door to shower might be challenging for bigger travellers
