No hot water on a January night

1st night had no hot water to take a shower for the entire hotel... It's a cold January day ... we traveled whole day, hoping to have some good night sleep after cleaning up, but couldn't even take a shower. Very disappointed. It did come next day.

My room was clean and had all the proper amenities. The staff was friendly, but only spoke a few English words. I had lots of problems with the wifi connection. Staff wasn't able to help much. I was on the 4/5 floor and the traffic noise was loud.

Hotel is not clean. Even though its a non-smoking room. The room have weird smoking smell. Even though the nice staff came to manually filter the air for us, the weird smoke smell came back on the next day. The weird smell stayed on all our cloths too. The room is not very clean too. Would not recommend to stay.

Super friendy staffs

I truly enjoyed my stay in this cozy hotel. Because the room was very cheaply priced but yet well located near the night market and the train station etc., I was honestly not expecting a good service from the hotel staffs. However, the receptionists, whom I met were all female, were super friendly and very helpful. Whenever I had a problem, such as finding a place to go for example, they tried to provide all sorts of possible supports for it with big smiles! During my stay, I truly felt like at a home. Due to this family atmosphere, I happened to help them for a small thing. Then, in return, just before my departure, I received a gift from the hotel owner. I realized that the lady whom I occasionally encountered at the check-in desk with a big and very natural smile was the owner, and no wonder why all the hotel staffs looked happy! Her leadership for being friendly seemed successfully permeated throughout her business. I regret that I could not see her at the time of departure. My room had no window, but well-conditioned and very spacious. The room Wi-Fi and air-conditioning had no problem at all. Only a possible problem can be a noise for a sensitive person. The people’s talk at the laundry room right in the front of my room was quite aloud. I do not recommend this place for a family for a reason, but good for ready travelers! Once you become a part of this friendly team as a customer, this place can be your home in Taiwan.They will be like your family! I will be back! 感謝!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
On the very first day the hotel staff told me that my room was facing the sunset hence my room will be warm. After switching on the air conditioner for the whole day running, it maintained at 30 degrees Celsius which I thought was really odd. The room never did cool down. In the end I changed rooms and the other room was slightly better. Only much later I realise their central air conditioning had problems. It was good on their part they try to do a service recovery, but what I felt was the staff may have lied to me with regards to the initial room condition. Overall the staff were friendly, they were obliged to help me out and recommend me places to go. Overall I would say a pleasant stay, but I will unlikely return to this hotel again.

Convenient location

Room is spacious, comfy bed, and hotel staff is friendly and willing to help. Great location too! But there are LOTS OF ANTS!! Both in the room, toilet and the cafe (where you have breakfast). Asked the staff to help clean but no improvement at all as they were just everywhere! Also, you better not to have any expectations for the breakfast. The only two hot dishes ran out as soon as they start serving! Expect to wait for another 15min before they replenish any of them. The other food items didn't look fresh - eg. dried-out mandarins, few tea bags that are half open. Bargain rate but I am sure you can get better option at this rate

Big room for two single beds

Location was a little dark at night, and walking to the liuhe night market can be a good 15 mins away. Was expecting a big reception counter as seen in photos but was surprised by a really small one. Didn't like the room without window, felt claustrophobic, so we upgraded to one with windows. The room was sufficiently big, and the single beds were big too. However aircon wasn't really functioning in one room. One big grouse was that breakfast selection was only a few dishes, about less than 10. And the staircase area was a little dark. However staff were friendly and helpful.
