Like the location easy to get around. Don't like the smell of disinfection and smoking, but stay for one night it's okay for me.

There might have inappropriate statement which causes different level of expectations. Overall, it might be a choice for staying short trip night, but not a long trip.

Bad experience
I will not go back to this hotel anymore, a place with a rude staff welcoming the guests are really very bad. The male staff attitude while opening the door to us was so bad that he even scolded us for wasting his time to open the door. Even though, the hotel room itself is ok, i will not visit again.

Location is 5 minute walk from nearest MTR station. Lots of convenient stores and restaurants nearby. Sleeping condition is comfortable. Place is clean and turndown service is good. Value for money is on point if you are on a budget. Just don"t expect an extra mile for service. You get what you pay for. All in all, it is okay.

I came in late. The hotel is usually unmanned but he answered the phone after midnight expecting my call. In about 10mins I was guided to my key and door over the phone and it was all good.

Experience staying in this guesthouse
To me this is more like guesthouse.When we arrived the guesthouse, the staffirst told us our room number, I was like OMG.....why?? Because our room located at Level 3. I was thinking, how to carry our big luggage up??? No choice we hav to carry because the staff did not offer help. We were told that the door pin number will change every 2-3 days. Everyday before we leare the guesthouse, we look at the pin number to confirm the pin number change or not.On our 3rd day morning, the pin number still the same but the pin number was change when we back to the guesthouse at night. Lucky, they still have intercom for us to intercom them. I would suggest they change the door pin number at night instead of afternoon or late evening. It inconvenient for those people who leave the guesthouse early & come back late. When we check out, we need to carry our big & heavy luggage from 3rd floor to 1st floor by going thru the small staircase. When there are few more step to reach the group, the staff did not offer help to take the big heavy luggage from us. The staff just sit there and see. If there is a guy with us, the staff don't offer help is OK but we are only 2 girls, why the guy staff don't help us. I wish the guesthouse owner could improve on this part.

Great Hotel
I stayed here on a business trip to Taipei. I expected a small room, given the price I had paid, but in fact it was massive - 2 floors in the room! I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of the room (perfect) and the bathroom (good shower, very clean, very modern. The only down side was the lack of staff. I was greeted by a ringing phone, and the woman on the end of it took my details, told me where to find the key, and where to find the WiFi and door codes. I personally had no problem with this - especially if it's why the room was so cheap! - but I can imagine some might.

nice rooms, horrible service and everything else.
1st night was decent. 2nd night is when the problems began. We arrived back at our room late, tired, and pressed for time to sleep an be up in the morning only to find that our room key was deactivated. SInce there is no hotel office, we had to spend calling plan money to make a call to them, and then wait a half hour for someone to show up with a new key. THey didn't bother bringing up to our 3rd floor, just dropped it in the downstairs key box, so fortunately we made a 2nd call to learn that and know to look for it. This was especially frustrating because we asked for 2 keys initially an they said NO. OK, finally eventually resolved. Then, the next day, returned to find the entire 3 flight hall way (and our room) STUNK from noxious smelling insecticide odor. Apparently, it was the day to spray, with no notice. I have severe allergies and strong insecticide, especially at night while trying to sleep, is an extreme irritant. THey could not even give us a fan for the window. Had to open windows wide, block the hall door with towels, and stillfumes were STRONG, not to mention all the light and noise coming in from open windows. I'm done with this hotel. Nice rooms, but horrible, non thinking, service and management.

Not a hotel, DO NOT BOOK
Was probably the worst place I have ever stayed, so difficult to find, couldnt even get entry until 15 minutes later when you figure out that its electronic coded and no-one is manning reception....cos wait for it....there is no reception. There is a phone and a desk and common keys, its not safe, no staff around...honestly speaking, its not a hotel and should not be on Hotels.com

Excellent Helpful Staff, Very Good Value for Money
The hotel is very much self-serve, there's no concierge - you get a key card from the staff there and then you're pretty much on your own. The room is a bit on the small side but comfortable for two, equipped with TV, desk, nightstand etc. The bathroom is nicely renovated and clean. Even though there's no front desk, the staff there is very willing to help and polite if you have any pre-/post- stay matters. The location is convenient, 10 mins walk or ~3 bus stops away from the nearest MRT station. We had a great time and will definitely consider stay with them again!

Nice and affordable hotel
The hotel does not have a reception desk so when you go in you need to use the door bell and the talk to the person over the phone to confirm your identity before they let you in. The hotel staff is friendly and they have basic necessities you need for example hot water, kettle to boil water, hair dryer and towel. I think the location is good because it's in the middle of the mrt loop. The nearest mrt is about 10 mins slow walk.

clean hotel but not so easy to find
Not so easy to find for 1st time. No reception area. But the room is clean and tidy. No ironner or hair dryer. It is pritty much just a very nice place to sleep. But if you are looking for a 4 start hotel experience, it probably not the choice. The place is close to local market, it is great experience to check out the local life style.

Good location. 10 mins walk to train station
Stayed there for 5 nights. Told the relevant person to clean up the room. However, they only change the towels but bed sheets and quilt wasn't clean up. Photos of 2 single beds wasn't what was shown in picture. Was extremely disappointed with the pictures shown in the website.

Couldn't find it, but decent for the price!!!
Firstly I just wanted to state that taxi drivers don't really know where this hotel is located... we were taken to the Check Inn hotel a block away twice by two different taxi drivers... weird! The hotel itself looks like a normal residential apartment block- there aren't any signs or hotel names on the front- but it's the grey building opposite the bright yellow shop on the corner of a side street. Press # then 9 to call the operator to let you in. A cleaning lady will let you in. The rooms are no frills: no wardrobe, mini bar or even toilet roll (they have facial tissue instead). A/C, TV and very nice and clean beds and shower room are just what you need. Ideally, you would only spend 2/3 nights in this place; it's literally a place to dumb your bags/shopping/sleep and shower before hitting Taipei. We stayed in 306, a triple room (1x double and 1 single) for essentially £40 per night... bargain!!! Security is pretty much normal: swipe card to get in your room but no safe. There's also no breakfast, it's literally a block with rooms inside... Bring your own toilet paper!

Location and cleanliness were good. The things we found inconvenient were the lack of storage service before check-in and after check-out and the lack of signs on the street. There were only stairs so we would think twice if travelling with big and heavy luggage.

Comfortable Hotel to stay
We got lost when we first walked to the hotel. It's not an eye-catchy building, but the staff are nice and helpful. The toilet was much better than I had expected. The room is clean, tidy. And it's good to have a TV in the room.

Excellent facility and quality
Value for money. Excellent quality and cleanliness. The only disadvantage that you have to contact owner to access hotel. No staff will entertain at the lobby. No baggage reservation allowed. Otherwise, this is a great place to stay.
