"Very happy stay. Great location with very helpful staff. Also having a direct link to the department store next door works well for hit or raining weather. Special thanks to the night manager on 22/07/2026 and staff Michelle, went all the ways to ensure I was well settling into the room. Much appreciated ❤️"
"Not sure why on Google it has less than 4 stars as it was an excellent stay, all in all. Lobby is located on the 8th floor, with elevators being outside on the ground floor. Check in was smooth, and the room was clean, spacious and functional. I had the trendy room double bed, and for one person it had an abundance of space-full desk, double bed, and while the bathroom isn't the largest, it is absolutely functional and the shower is sizable. Used the laundry room during my stay which was useful...
"A beautiful property. Spacious, modern guest rooms. The breakfast buffet was well worth the price. Travel to the Anping attractions and into Tainan via UBER was convenient and inexpensive. I would gladly stay there again."
