Location of the hotel is great, situated in the middle of Ximending, allowing shopping to be very convenient. Not too far away from Ximen Station as well. Facilities are very normal, but unfortunately assigned room does not have window. Hair dryer might require some upgrading. Overall the stay was worth it considering price and location! : )

The property is located on the 9th and 10th floors of a old building (rest of the floors are long-stay tenants/other businesses). There are 2 elevators but sometimes they are used by the cleaners to transport garage so they stink badly. Check-in at the counter on the 9th floor, and we had rooms on the 10th. Room was large size and had toiletries, mini fridge, cable TV, decent wifi, bottled water, tea/coffee. Air-conditioning was miserable and non-existent, opening the single window caused mosquitoes to enter. Shower was hot and water pressure good but pipes were super noisy so i didn't have a good rest. Housekeeping did a great job with the lousy hardware though. Beds were terribly soft. Location was decent, about 350m from Ximending MRT.

Many mosquitoes inside the lifts when we are up & down to this building, facilities are old enough to re-renovate, these 2 areas need to improve. Location is good, below many convenient shops, foods stall surrounding, subway Ximen station not far away.

Fair
The place is conveniently located at ximen ting, great house keeping daily for the price. We got a free upgrade to family room and the room was spacious. However, walls are very very thin,can hear the conversation/showering next door clearly in the middle of the night. The lifts were faulty on the last day of stay that led to us walking down 3 stories before being able to take the lift.

房務打掃房間不斷的把已開啟的拖鞋丟掉,但又不提供新的,難道是讓房客光腳踩在他們整片都是骯髒地毯的地板上嗎? 再者,第一天入住時就發現有喝過剩一半的水...
